Wedding Inspiration by Photographer: Hair

This is new categories that I am adding to my blog entry. As a photographer, I wanted to create my own inspirational board for my readers.Certainly, I am not a stylist so I will make this brief and simple. It’s more like Tammie’s favorite things.  As I browse Internet, it always amazes me how amazing these modern brides look on their wedding photos.  Each have their own distinctive style. I am old fashioned. I still love laced wedding gown and mantilla veil on brides personally, but as a photographer I love photographing a bride who wants to be daring!
I guess these hair pieces represent  ”Vintage” with modern twist.
I just love them!  Jen and Jamie at Ban.do do such a wonderful job. I love their new dramatic ones.  You should definitely visit their site.
So if you are looking to make statement and not afraid of having fun how about we do the session with some of these hair pieces.  Or wear the veil for your ceremony and wear these for your photography session.

Ambient Photography Studio in Brentwood

You all know that I am a foodie but this image deserves first place because I couldn’t have done this party without my friend, Jean. She took care of all the food for me. It was like having a professional caterer.  Thank you darling xoxo!  Her red velvet cup cakes were to die for.

I met Sandra P. at Jose Vila’s workshop and we immediately connected! so when she invited me to be her date for the Brides.com party, I leaped for the joy. I love this fun shot of Sandra Pan. When I meet people I see only one thing, genuineness of their heart. She definitely has a good heart and she is so talented. I am glad we became friends! Attending networking events are definitely helping me gain more friends that I keeps me grounded.

Welcome

Hello All,

Welcome to my humble blog everyone!

I am still in the process of branding my photography business and creating this blog was part of it. Please don’t get bored just yet!
Yes, this is one of my marketing elements just like many other professionals that work in this field. However my intention is to use this blog to share bit of my life with all of you so you can learn little more about me before you decide to hire me.
I am a people photographer… in orde to be good people photographer, I need to connect with my subject. So please be my friend through this blog.

I have been managing my personal blog elsewhere, but I’ve decide to combine both business and personal on this blog. That’s why you won’t find any previous posts, but I promise you I will TRY my best to fill this blog up with interesting posts soon!

Now,I am not much of a socialite. My life is pretty simple (can be boring at times), but I hope you enjoy visiting my bog as often as you can.
As a first attempt to keep my promise, I think I am going to go out and buy my first “Point and Shoot” digital camera that I can carrie it in my purse all the time. Point and shoot cameras have some limitations, but I have to say they take great picture nowdays!
