Brides, let’s look a few months in to the future. You’ve enjoyed your wedding day, and you and your guests are in great anticipation to seeing all the Wonderful Wedding Photography that was captured.
Problem is that everyone is calling, texting, emailing and otherwise messaging you asking the same question. When can I see them. It’ll get frustrating after a while.
Here’s the solution! Have personalized cards created that already have the image viewing information printed on them and give them away at the reception! The cards should have the website where they can be viewed as well as a phone number to call if they have any problems viewing them (Otherwise any web challenged viewers will be calling YOU).
This sly solution will double as a wonderful memento of your wedding day. Your Family & Friends would want this creative card even if it didn’t have the information!
Studio Galvan understands how valuable this little used solution is to their wedding photography clients and gives it away as a part of their service!
Check out this Photo-Video some recent Wedding Thank You Cards we have created.
Yvette Scheiber
You never know what your going to miss out on if you don’t go to one of the Woodlands Christian Business Network Luncheons. This past month Yvette Scheiber was serving up challenging insights for small business to compliment the great food Landry’s always delivers.

So I gave a few folks a scare when I actually made good on my threat to create their Executive Portraits. The web resolution images can be downloaded from Here.
If you like the image so much that you just have to have prints made, please visit the Print Ordering Site. (You’ll be helping to feed a hungry family.)
Jeffrey & Elizabeth get Married…
… at Lakewood United Methodist Church. Elizabeth has contracted me to capture her Wedding Photography in North Houston . The reception took place at the exclusive Raveneaux Country Club just a few miles away! I finally had the privilege of meeting the Grooms side of the Family. West Point graduate Lieutenant Jeffery Caslen was the young man about to enter into Wedded bliss. It was an extra honor to be covering the wedding of Lieutenant General Robert Caslen (a 3 star General)!
Enjoy some of their Wedding Photojournalism here on this Photo-Video.
Also enjoy Elizabeths Bridal Portriats!

FREE?
Well the first one’s free.
Here’s the deal. I’ve really been enjoying giving photography lectures to different photography and camera clubs but I want to be able to provide college level information and understanding. Unfortunately a lecture here and there just won’t do it. I’m going to start weekly photography classes. The class will meet every Tuesday at 6:30pm to 8pm at Cypress Creek Diner until the course is complete.
Learn How to take better pictures!
- Why photos come out too Light or too Dark
- Different solutions for the exposure issue
- Taming Tricky Lighting situations
- Why shooting telephoto is like shooting a pistol
- When to use flash
- When not to use Flash
- Much More
Topics
What happened to the colorful Image Showing Light & Shadow?
- What isPhotography
- What’s Digital difference
- Qualities of Light
- What is Exposure & Exposure issues
- Aperature, ISO, Shutter Speed
- Depth of Field
There will be weekly assignments (sort of). How long will the course take? I DON’T KNOW! But I anticipate 6-10 weeks. I gave a lecture for my church group and was given an hour and a half. I created an outline but got through only half of it. So you’ll get to keep coming every week until the all the topics are completed.
The Investment
I paid thousand of dollars for my Photography education at Sam Houston State University. The best school at that time in the State for a Photography Education. You can pay thousands of dollars at The Houston Art Institute (I checked it out) and not get the benefit of a Seasoned Professional. You don’t have to pay that much. I’ll teach you all the pertinent Photography stuff you need to know. Plus you’ll get free advice every week during the Q & A time.
The class starts out at a basic level and quickly goes intermediate with some advanced stuff sprinkled in. How Much? Intro Rate is Just $45. Once my first class give me some input that rate will likely go up. Remember the class you visit is Free! If your not sure if the class is for you just visit us as a guest once & see. (What have you got to lose?)
8-2 Class
This week I’ll demonstrate what difference you can expect to see when shooting raw vs. shooting straight to jpg. Perhaps I’ll have some print samples of the two methods as well.
SPECIAL EVENT: We’ll also discuss a “Trash The Dress” location photo shoot that I & model Megan Wannarka are coordinating for next Monday morning!
LOCATION
We will be meeting at Cypress Creek Diner for the until the close of this course. Need a Map to the location? Go to:

Some people call it Easter but I prefer the term Resurrection Day! I usually don’t “work” on Sunday mornings but I was so excited about last Sunday’s service that I couldn’t help myself. I love photography and of course being excited about how my little church is serving the community & it’s members that I wanted to be able to share this with others.
Here’s a little Photo-Video using some of the images that I captured during the service.
