One more album design accomplished! I have so much fun working at albums… bringing back all the great moments and emotions of the wedding day… Arantxa and Joseph were married last October…

Today I am working on few images for a senior album. It’s so much fun using the new set of Nik filters I just bought at Imaging USA… I could stay for hours fixed on one image and give it many different interpretations. The pages of this album will come alive with colors and vibrant energy! The beauty, playfulness and sensuality of Alexandra is a perfect match for the atmosphere I wanted to create.

I just had to share a few before continuing the album design… coming soon on this blog!

Returning back from Imaging USA in Phoenix, my friend and I drove by Joshua Tree National Park. We had a chance to unwind after the frenzy of the photographic convention and enjoy the amazing atmosphere of the desert… the peace, silence and its almost lunar feel.

You can notice on the right side of this big rock a brave climber…

We also encountered a curious site passing through Angel View County… these rocks were all vandalized.. this one below reminded me of Mount Rushmore…

Here is just a few pages from Amelia and Cory’s wedding album I created for my portfolio. You may be familiar with this couple from their engagement and wedding pictures.

Ok.. I should have at least put some make up on for this picture! But, it was the end of a three day convention and I was just ready to drop on the floor.. here I am half way there

Jokes aside, I was so happy to start the year attending Imaging USA, one of the two major national conventions for professional photographers. It was very expiring and thrilling to hear from their own words, pros like Yervant, Joe Buissink, Dennis Reggie, Hanson Fong… Like going to Disneyland for a child…

I got back so full of energy and new ideas… It’ll be a great year 2009! Here are a few postcards from Phoenix.. got to love the weather there, although I heard the Bay Area got lucky too while I was away..

In the reflection of the Convention Center building you can see Saint Mary’s Church. Inside one of the convention center buildings there is this big mirror that got everyone’s attention…

Here’s my collegue Gino De Grandis, taking a photo of a model bride while Hanson Fong was explaining lighting techniques… And him again agaist a Kodak wall picture..

In Phoenix downtown, here’s the Orpheum Theater. Nights were quite challenging as the excitement of the day would keep us awake, our heads buzzing with informations and new ideas… more coming up on the rest of our trip back home passing through Joshua Tree National Park.
