Wednesday scraps

Item #1 - Parasols

I thought I would share some of the new props I received today via Luna Bizzaar. If you're looking for a unique wedding thingamajig, then these are a great addition (and they're only like 7 bucks peice). Look for these to pop up in future bridal sessions.

Item #2: Album design

Here's the very scrappy way I design my albums. The bride sends me a list of shots she wants in the book, I layout the pages with my design software and make a list to fill in the blank spots with my own picks. 1H means I have one horizontal space on the page. Here's what the album pages ended up looking like: http://www.allenarrick.com/galleries/gabbyalbum/

Item #3:

February print sale still going on.

Item #4:

The UPS man brought me a Canon 5D mkii yesterday. This is the camera I will use to shoot your wedding. The same model was used to shoot Barack Obama's Presidential portrait (and the two pictures above).

Item #5:

It seems like very few people get married in February in Texas. I would think Valentines day would be huge, but I've never shot a wedding on the 14th.

Item #6: Parasailing is a sport. Parasoling should definitely not be a sport.

Item #7: Blogging is much easier than actually working.
