35th Anniversary Thank You’s

35th Anniversary Thank You’s

Thank you so very much TO ALL who wished us a congratulations on our 35th Anniversary!  It’s been an Incredible Ride! Not Easy…But Extremely Challenging.  If you are in business for yourself then you know what I am talking about.  There have been so many wonderful people that have touched my life these past 35 years!  Thank you to the clients that have told us we have touched their lives as we captured memories that will last a lifetime for them. Like I always say, “90% Is In The Preparation. People Only See The 10%.”

Artistry In Motion Dance Company – 7/18-19/20

Artistry In Motion Dance Company – 7/18-19/20

WOW!  This was our First Volume Job in 3 Months since the Covid-19 hit!  It was great to once again engage with kids, Stephanie and her staff, and of course our crew!  I can’t thank Stephanie Redd enough for the opportunity to photograph her dance school!!!  It was a little out of the ordinary of how we photograph dance schools.  To adhere to social distancing, for the group photographs we did the green screen process, and then our graphic designer, Chris, takes the single green screen images and puts the groups together, as you can see.  What a wonderful job he does (it’s a pretty involved process) but…like I Always Say – Half The Loaf Is Better Than None!  Over all, Stephanie and her crew did an excellent job, considering we did both picture day and their recital in 2 days!  Enjoy both the formal images, group images, and the slideshow!  Thank you to all the students and parents!  Have a wonderful summer!

Studio Crew – Covid-19 Staff Photo

Here we are in compliance with Covid-19 guidelines, wearing our masks!

Let me tell you, it’s a strange feeling to be wearing a mask and doing a photo shoot!  Fortunately, our clients do not need to wear a mask!  Ha!

Oh well, like I have always said, You Gotta Do What You Gotta Do!!

Thank You To All My Past Employees!

It’s amazing when you have time on your hands (Coronavirus Pandemic) how your mind rewinds back to the past!  I was thinking back on all the wonderful people that have been part of our professional photography business over the past 30 years, helping my late wife Karen, my new wife Zaneta, and myself get to where I am now! May God Bless You All and I Hope You are Doing Well Throughout All This Craziness!

Over the years, many have helped with the following photography jobs: In Our Studio – High School Senior Sessions, Families, Children, Engagement Couples, Professional Business Portraits (headshots), etc.  In Our High School Contracts – Proms, Homecomings, Sports, Special Events, Yearbook / Cap and Gown Portraits, Cheerleaders, Pom Pon, Bands, Color Guards.  In Our Youth Sports – Gymnastics Schools, Dance Schools, Football, Baseball/Softball, T-Ball, Soccer, Volleyball, Basketball, Swimming, Cheerleaders. In Our Special Events – Corporate Family Holiday/Christmas Parties, Father/Daughter Dances, Family Dances, Holiday Corporate Award Dinners.

Between Chris (my faithful right hand man for the past 25 years) and my loverly wife Zaneta and myself, we tried to remember all the names! If we missed anyone, please accept our apologies! Send us your name and we will add you to the list!  Also, some of you will have your maiden names, and not your married names. Below is also a slideshow with images of behind the scenes, showing our great crew setting up, being goofy, and having fun for a variety of jobs!  As I Always Say, “90% Is In The Preparation!!! Our Clients Only See The 10%.”
