15 Again

Quinceanera - Event Photography, For those of you who actually follow my blog, you will remember my post from May 2010 regarding Quinceaneras. This time around, I was smart and teamed up with my good friend and fellow photographer, Nick, from Nick Pantele Photography. Basically, it's like shooting a wedding (for the most part), there is a lot of work involved, and like last time, this special event was larger then some weddings I have photographed. It was great to have Nick's support and coverage for this event, plus, we always have a blast working together on assignments. For me, I am all about working smarter, not harder. This year, my beautiful wife Annie has been assisting me with post production editing, she has gotten really good at editing.
Getting back to the Quinceanera... The red carpet was rolled out and nothing was skimped on. I mean, it's not every day you attend a birthday party for a 15 year old girl that has a 6 tear, 5 level cake with a fountain in the middle of it. We are talking over the top baby, and that was just the beginning. For more examples of special event photography, don't forget to check out our newly designed website: http://AmplifiedPhoto.com

Fountain of Life


Friends of ours, Tim and Kari Thompson, Senior Pastors at http://www.fountainoflife.tv/ (Fountain of Life Christian Fellowship) in Mesa, AZ. asked me if I would be interested in shooting some commercial / advertisement imagery for their church and new website, I think you know what my answer was. I have got the opportunity to work with my new friend Chris Omlor, http://relevantlogo.com Relevant Logo, who designed their new website and church logo. This commercial assignment was a lot of fun, which is evedent in the images used on their website. For more examples of their imagery, please check out Fountain of Life's website.

Ring of Fire

LOVE is a burning thing, and it makes a fiery ring. Bound by wild desire, I fell into a ring of fire. DeDe and Richard are lovebirds, newly engaged, and have Johnny Cash's song pumping through their veins.
