Today I came home and found box near our door. I love “Box-days”

As I post earlier, I use Loktah for my DVD presentation since last year. I adore their products!!!

When I saw their new Super  Sampler Kit  with boxes, cases and photo folios I make an order immediately! Each item looks  sooooo cute and stylish and organic… I am excited to send my photographs and DVD packed in Loktah to my lovely clients this year.

Just look at these: 

I have got e-mail from my friend Elena today, she provide me this link with lovely details….

As I promised I share with you my new lovely slipcover vendor- ChrisQ.
When I saw her work for the first time on someone’s blog I fell in love with it instantly!
Chris always looks so gorgeous and she provides custom made slipcovers for people who love fresh, stylish and fabulous things. She is pensioned in what she does. So for me there was no second doubt – I will choose her as my favorite vendor for my album’s slipcovers!
I hope this post will be helpful for photographers who are still looking for a perfect vendors and beautiful products for their clients.

Thank you Chrys, it was pleasure to work with you and I adore your new spring collection 2009!

I was a bad blogger past week…and the reason is- we moving to a house. Once you start to move you cannot stop….Who went through this exciting but crazy and endless process he understand – a lot of boxes and ……a lot of boxes!
Yesterday was a special day! My clients and my new vendor for album slipcover made my day lighter.

Lovely “Thank you” letter from my clients

Yesterday we (I and Lena) attended meeting of Buffalo Bridal Association. They presented new futures abilities for their members and interviewed the owner of the beautiful Salvatore’s restaurant. We spent great time and met a lot of friends and new interesting people there.

We woke up early morning for our photo shoot today (at 5 a.m.). As you know, this time of day gives warm and stunning light for pictures.  This is my favorite time for photo shoot. I know, it is not easy, but it’s totally worth it!!!!!!!!!!

So, today our model was Anna. It turned out, that she is not only talented make up artist, but also very beautiful girl. During the week we have been getting together and made a decision about all details and style. I thing we did a great job J

Make up –Anna

Style- Anna and I

Photography- guess  who?

Last Sunday me and Elena visited new exquisite and gorgeous hotel in Lewiston- “The Barton Hill Hotel & Spa”.

If we didn’t know for a fact that the hotel is brand new, we would be totally convinced that the place has been in business for about 100 year and is being taken care off well. The lobby with concierge desks, piano, fresh cut flowers, art on the walls, historic architecture …. Everything there just spoke taste and artistic view. One of the most beautiful views in the area awaits for you through lobby windows and from the terrace on the second floor.  Located on the Lewiston’s Riverfront, this hotel instantly became a very attractive place for sophisticated weddings and retreats in WNY. I would like to express my appreciation to Jeff , the general manager of the hotel for the finding the time in his busy schedule, for the hotel tour and for his kindness.

It was also exiting to meet Amy, newly appointed banquet manager and, We also had a chance to meet the person, who’s inspiration, taste, art appreciation and passion stands behind the hotel: Diane. It is always nice to meet a person who gives back to the community, makes the world around us more beautiful and meaningful. It is due to Diane the walls of the hotel, as well as some pieces of the furniture proudly represent work of local artists.
It was purely inspirational to just visit the hotel, and I can not wait to shoot a wedding in such an extraordinary setting!

These invitations made by  Grapevine.  Are they not modern and stylish? 

Yesterday we had a privilege to meet with Trish, she is an owner of “Thrive Flower Studio”.

A young and full of energy lady opened the door…it was Trish, women who knows how make your weding day truly beautiful.  Trish is a very easy-going person and has a bright, colorful character. Couple minutes into our conversation it felt like we’ve known each other for many years! Unexpectedly, we found out that Trish has been a photographer before and than a decorator and now has been immersing fiancés in Buffalo and surrounding areas into the art of flowers.  In Trish’s own words she is “arranging flowers for the special events and does in with the passion!”

We found a lot common things between us. Trish loves everything new, innovative and fresh. She loves trying new styles in her artistic vision.

If you haven’t visit  her beautiful website, you should go and look here…

Thank you, Trish for your tips and recomendations!
