I recently had a bride-to-be ask me to do a blog on Do-It-Yourself weddings ideas. As I brain-stormed, it occurred to me that I do not really have any great insight on that topic, as my wedding was 17 years ago, and we really did not do much ourselves. So I dug a little deeper into my photo files, and noticed that the one major trend that I am seeing is personalized and quite often DIY table decorations. As an example I have included some detail photos from Brad and Hannah’s wedding on October 1st, 2011. Brad and Hannah own a business collecting and selling honey, so they decided to orient their decorations around being beekeepers. Here are a bunch of “honey oriented” photos from their wedding day.

Just a reminder for all of you that visited our booth at a recent bridal show. Look in the bag that we gave you for information about getting a FREE metal print with your wedding package. If you did not attend one of the bridal shows, you can also make a photocopy of this blog to qualify. These metal prints have amazing color! Each metal print includes an invisible hidden hanging bracket, that places your print almost 1 inch from the wall. This gives it a trendy, modern look, that just pops with color! You can also have a more traditional canvas portrait, if you prefer! New bookings only.

Here is a cute photo from a recent family portrait session that I just photographed. Getting 6 kids all sitting in one place is no easy task! My job is pretty easy, I just set things up, and let the parents run around and chase the kids. Then when they are all in place I use a squeaky toy to get their attention.

Folks talk about the calm before the storm. This is a perfect example. The left photo shows a calm and tranquil idyllic image. Taken a few seconds later, the photo on the right expresses a more realistic look at the goofiness of being a kid. I like how the two of them work off each other to tell a more complete story! I like photographing kids from a high angle, as it seems to bring forth a bit more personality. Often the kids are fascinated by me shooting down at them, and they seem to be trying to figure out what is going on?

I would like to thank Ron Lewis for these great pointers about keeping your computer safe from predatory invasions:
Safe Computing – Learn to spot “FAKE ALERTS”
We’re frequently seeing folks, regardless of computer literacy, being fooled by some nasty scareware that pops up fake alerts that their system is infected or the hard drive is failing. These alerts can look very similar to the real thing with minor differences and can be quite alarming. Unfortunately, when a user clicks on any button the malware then burrows into the system and can be difficult to remove. Your best defense to know, by sight, what the warning screens are for the program(s) protecting your system from infection. If you are online and suddenly get an alert that your system is infected, do the following:
- DON’T CLICK ANYTHING!;
- Take a breath and ask yourself if this is a real alert or not?;
- Do the graphics look familiar or not?;
- Is there a readily identifiable Trademark that tells you exactly who published the software that is giving you the alert?;
- Is the name of the popup sort of generic (BIG CLUE!!)?;
- Be sure or call us and ask for assistance.
Make yourself familiar with the software protecting your system. Open it up. Explore it. Check out the help. Most of all, get familiar with what it looks like and who made it. That way you’ll have a better idea whether an alert is real or not. A little self-education can save you some stress, inconvenience and some money by knowing a Fake Alert when you see one. BTW - Google “FAKE ALERT” and you’ll find plenty of examples of what they look like.

1-Drink lots of water. Not only does it help keep you full, but staying hydrated will give you better looking skin.
2-Eat spicy foods. The heat will help you eat smaller portions. Also, spicy seasonings like cayenne and chili peppers help to speed up your metabolism, which in turn can help burn extra calories. Plus they taste good, without adding any extra calories!
3-Keep healthy snacks in your car and at your desk. Try nuts and beef jerky. Both are healthy for you, just be sure to keep your portion sizes small. Baby carrots and raisins also are a good choice.
4-Eat breakfast every day.
5-Eat more protein and fruit.
6-Eat smaller meals throughout the day.

What you put on your feet speaks volumes about you! Are you a casual flip-flop type of girl? That is a practical decision and one of the most comfortable. If you are having an outdoor or beach wedding consider going barefoot. If large parts of your wedding are going to be outside, do not forget the potential for rainy weather. High heels and mud soaked lawns are not a good mixture. Many brides have two options, something formal for the church and something more casual for the reception. Of course winter brides should bring boots for venturing outdoors. Many brides get rid of the shoes and hit the dance floor in bare feet. Sneakers are also a trendy option! Keep in mind that for the most part your shoes are going to be hidden by your gown. I would always advise that you wear something comfortable. Perhaps have a back-up plan just in case!
