Your Photos Last a Lifetime!

Confession...I hate...not despise my wedding photographs...

I was sick and my photographer was, uh, less that wonderful

{although he had a great reputation}...

I was also a really lame bride.
I fell for the slick talking, Beverly Hills hype. 

Maybe that is why I became a wedding planner...

I was tough and fair and honest when it came to the couple I worked with...

mainly so that they would not have the issues and problems I did

{which were totally avoidable}.

 BUT you do not have to have these issues with your photography!

First there are well qualified reputable photographers in all price ranges. 

You must do your homework though. 

OK, this is turning into a whole different post.

Later in the week I will dive into choosing a photographer

and my opinions, etc. on the matter.

For now, I wanted to introduce you to my friend Cynthia's blog.

Cynthia is the owner of A Legendary Affair in Manhattan Beach, CA.

This is one of the original wedding resource centers.

She rocks {and she has lots of cool articles and idea online...go visit}.

She recently had a post about

Looking Your Best ON Your Wedding Day: Wedding Photography

and I think it is ABSOLUTELY worth reading.

I encourage all you brides out there to check it out.

Happy Planning!

Oh Shoot That's a Great Gift!

A few weeks ago, while perusing through blogland,

I came across a giveaway a blogger was having and

fell in L-O-V-E with what she was giving away.

Seriosuly how FAB is this?

Seriously, is this not a fantastic bridal shower or wedding present?

These wonderful prints are from Oh Shoot Photography

and would make any bride or groom happy as can be.

 It is a wonderful personalized gift.

There are so many different ways of creating the print

to capture individual (or as they case may be couples) personalities.

How does it work?

-Send an email requesting a proof...

-You can have up to 9 letters in your collage...

-The info for the top or bottom could be...wedding date, wedding year, wedding location, etc. 

-Oh Shoot Photography is happy to help with ideas once you tell them the occassiononce I hear what occasion they are looking for.

-Pricing is only $30 for one 10x20 print.  Frames can be purchased for as little as $20 at most retail stores.

Oh, but wait...these collages are not only good for weddings...

can think of and can be personalized with parents names,
