Wedding Day

Getting Ready...

Cream and chocolate brown, satin and lace, pearls and curls.... mmmm dreamy

Bridesmaids... waiting in anticipation as the limo drives us to the castle

A spectacular setting for a wedding at Benedict Castle in Riverside.

Vivid colors, yet sweet and tender, just like the feeling that surrounded this day

Those eyes.....

The waiting room... it is almost time!

The entrance to the Chapel, decked and splendid for Christmas

The men arrive

After a ceremony with many happy tears from both bride and groom, I get to capture some quiet time

The best day so far of our new life together... and this is awesome!

A moment in the middle of the dance floor...

One of the most tender couples, and sweet wedding days I've had the privilege to be a part of. May your growing love strengthen and bind you through Eternity... Jenn

A beautiful autumn morning in Idyllwild...

Great session. It was wonderful to have Grandma and Grandpa there to help. Little Hailey Rose always smiled at Grandma! Scion was hyper but happy and we got some good shots with him looking right at the camera. :D Thank you, Linsey and Tim, for asking me to capture these moments in time for you. Talk Soon!

The New Look

The new site is lovingly created with colors that better fit the feel of Alba Photography.

We thought the blog should be in similar colors. What do you think? Is it easy enough to read?

Comments welcome.

New Proof Books

I have to show you the new proof book, which comes with every wedding contract. It is hard bound with 1 - 4 of your wedding images per page. Images are printed on silk-finished CMYK matte interior pages, with up to 1800 images in one book.

This is a great way to view all your pictures, along with online viewing and the big screen, as you make decisions on which images you want your albums, canvases, prints, and more.

Questions? Just ask!

Getting Hacked

I was literally going to post today to refer everyone to the beta website. It is almost ready and I love feedback... but as I went to the main site today, I saw...

WE GOT HACKED!

Instead of the Alba Photography home page, there was some foreign language with music and a video, hinting at something indecent. Ah, great. Thank goodness the hosting company is fast getting everything taken care of. In order to make sure nothing is left that is "infected", they have to wipe everything off the server. Everything. I get to upload the site again ...but since I am so close to putting up the new site, I'm going to just do that.

SO: Tomorrow: Come see the (beta-now-new) website!

www.albaphotography.net

Note: There are some quirks and non-working links. I'll get to those as soon as possible. Feel free to leave feedback, comments, questions... THANKS!

Fine Art

We just returned from a family trip. I wanted to share some of the pictures I took:

This one is at Bodie, a fascinating place. This is inside the protestant church there...

This reminds me of childhood memories, the fields and the shed at Grandmas house... (sigh)

Can you guess what this is? It's the remainder of the stump of a tree at Lake Mary...

I love Convict Lake...

On the hike to Rainbow Falls

I am revamping my Fine Art Site. When it is ready, these images and many others will be available in limited edition. I'll let you know when the new site is up!

Thanks. :-D
