Awards Of Excellence, WPPI, 2008

This year I decided to participate again in WPPI print competition (I had a break from year 2004 when I had won similar awards). Out of 4 pictures 2 received an Award of Excellence. See below photo of me holding my awards which I received last week :)

Another news - wedding of Mari Claudia and Steve (from January) was published by national Latin American magazin In Fashion. I am really excited to see my work in huge publication like that! This magazine distributed in several Latin American countries... (not in the US).

Panama Canal Adventure!

After intense month of weddings I was a bit exhausted. Here came an opportunity to make a 6 day trip on the board of Radiance of the Seas (Royal Caribbean International), a cruise that was going through Panama Canal. My husband was working at the ship for 4 weeks and I gladly joined him there :). It was a rare opportunity when kids were taken care of, my mom stays with us for a few months…

Cruise is a special kind of travel, of course I had my camera handy. Going through the locks of the canal was an adventure! I was so thrilled to see wild jungles! It made me very happy :) More info about Panama Canal get at http://www.pancanal.com

My small photo reportage is included below… of course I have many more pictures! Enjoy!



PS.: I will be posting resent BEAUTIFUL weddings photos a bit later, stay tuned!

You made me want to get married again…

This morning I had an appointment with one of my brides - Erica. Her wedding was in April last year. She came to pick up her wedding albums (one book of her own, 2 parent books and 6 mini copies!) The book was amazing!!! Graphistudio does such an amazing job of printing, overall books quality is simply stunning.

After Erica looked through her album she said: “You made me want to get married again!” This was a compliment I have never heard.

Being a wedding photographer has two sides. One side is a huge responsibility. And the other – is feeling satisfaction from your work… I feel happy seeing my clients happy with their wedding pictures…
