Slide Shows at Your Reception

Are you considering a photo presentation at your reception -- photographs tracing the lives of the bride and groom, compiled into a slideshow or montage on DVD or PowerPoint?

Presenting it as a show gives you the emotional impact of an audience sighing or… Continue

I'll do it for free

At the beginning of the year, I came across a local vendor's post who was looking for cross-promoting with others like me. I jumped into that pool not knowing exactly what benefit I could get from it.

I engaged with the following email:

Hi,

Wedding Tip from Vanity Fare Caterers February 24, 2010

Marriage License: Your marriage license is valid for 30 days and cannot be issued until 72 hours after application has been submitted. The license should be issued in the town that the ceremony will take place. Both Bride and Groom need to be present, along with one witness when filing the application and they will need to have birth certificates and another form of identification.

Church Weddings, Priests. Rules, versus the Bride's wishes

Hello all.

This year I have had the interesting experience of speaking with several priests, officiants,

and church coordinators regarding weddings, wedding music, what the churches allow, what they consider to be "spiritual" and etc.

It's a controversial topice as many bride's especially would like the music they love to be performed in the church.

The Catholic Church maintains that "secular" songs such as any song by (here is a list of some song…

San Francisco City Hall Engagement

The last stop for Winnie and Ryan’s engagement session in San Francisco

was at City Hall. This was my first time to shoot in City Hall despite

all of the other wedding and engagement sessions that I’ve done in San

Francisco. City Hall was so big, four floors which allowed us to get

past all of the tourists that were roaming around. Winnie and Ryan had

some time to look around before I got there and they had some good

ideas of places to take some photos.…

The newest diet Craze: Boudoir Photography!

If I had a nickel for every time I heard the statement (or a very similar variation), “I’m too fat for boudoir photography,” I’d have a lot of Snickers bars. To be perfectly honest, 99.9% of the time I’m

staring back at a svelte, gorgeous woman. But fine, you know what?

Instead of fighting that crazy notion of yours like I normally do, I
