Galveston Bay Shrimp Boat & Copyright Concerns

I wanted to share this image I took recently in the Galveston Bay. It is of a shrimp boat with seagulls looking for a meal. I try to get out when I can to photograph things of a different nature from time to time, so I thought I would share.

On a more serious note. I love to see when my clients use the work I created for them on their own, websites, blogs, and networking websites such as MySpace. It really is the ultimate form of complimenting what I do. However, I have noticed a few folks cropping out my logo, and or not giving me a little love for those really ultra cool and hip pics.. (hopefully they are ultra cool... LOL!). There is a lot of you that have also purchased the hi-resolution images on disk as well. The paper work included with that ask that credit be given to me if images are used on a personal website.

I ask if you are using images in one of these situations that you please give me credit on your site. It helps other folks find me, and it really helps with my business. By doing so is like saying thank you. I allow such use as a thank you for being a customer. Every image I create is protected by copyright laws. It is because of these laws that a profession such of mine can exist, and I would love to be able to continue to provide my services for years to come. So, if you can take the time to mention my website on your site I would appreciate it.

Enjoy!

Claudia and Oscar - St. Joseph's Catholic Church, Dalton, GA

Claudia and Oscar was my first Hispanic Catholic wedding. I had such a blast! The wedding was at Saint Joseph's Catholic Church in Dalton, GA. The church was stunning with huge windows that made for excellent lighting for an indoor wedding. I would have to say by far it was the church with the best natural lighting I have been in.

At the wedding they had a mariachi band, and with the decor inside the church it was an amazing experience. There was a lot of firsts at this wedding. It was one of the longest days I have had in a long time. However, it was worth it.

During the reception they guys took the groom and tossed him in the air! There are several other traditional things that happened that I would be hard pressed to explain. The photos were wonderful, and of course having wonderful subjects really help!

Here is the slideshow!

A Step Back is a Step Forward


In previous posts I had spoke about picking up where I had to leave off due to technical difficulties. So, here it is first wedding photos post since all of that. I would like to introduce to you Heather and Johnathan. These two love birds tied the not on the beach in wonderful St. Augustine, Florida.
