BEHIND THE SCENES......

I love my job! I have been photographing weddings for over 15 years now and can honestly say I wouldn't do any other job. I love being at weddings and documenting the most important day of people's lives in a way that is unique and beautiful. Many of my clients thank me for creating images that will help them remember their wedding. The people who don't get thanked are the people who work behind the scenes in my office. Cindy does all of the post production work on every event I shoot. (Sometimes Barbel does some portraits for me.) Cindy works tirelessly on each and every image I send to her. I usually ask her to work on about 300 photos for a local wedding. She opens each and every image in photoshop, fine tunes them, and converts some to black and white or sepia. She makes sure that each and every image is as beautiful as it can be. She then sets the images in a Quicktime slideshow with music and burns three copies so that both sides of the family can see all of the photographs we printed. Her son Ricky then methodically uploads SOME of the photographs onto our web hosting page. In order to make sure all of the reprints are correct he must upload them in the exact order that Cindy processed them or we will have mistakes during reprints. This is no small job as it can be rather monotonous uploading 150-200 images one at a time. Finally, in order to keep everything organized for our clients we have an extensive backup system that Cindy follows for each and every event. Without her attention to detail and commitment to doing a wonderful job my images would not look as beautiful and my customers would not be as happy with our customer service. So I thank you Cindy, and Ricky for all of your consistent work day after day. Cindy your post production work is beautiful!
