New Decorating Ideas For Your Home!

cbcphoto — Sat, 26 Mar 2011 22:34:10 +0000

Spring is here, and with it, we have new decorating ideas for your home! Freshen up your rooms with the best kind of art: your family! Here is an example of our new Wall Photo Groups. These are exciting, beautiful and contemporary. They come in dozens of different sizes and configurations. All prints are mounted on fine art board, and ready to be placed on your wall. No frame or glass is needed! Your photos even come with a fool-proof template for making sure they are level and evenly spaced. All mounting hardware and instructions are included! Now it is easy and fast to place art gallery displays in your home.

The possibilities are endless for baby photos, family photos, high school seniors, and just about anything you can imagine. The overall designs come in sizes from 12″ to 48,” so they will fit anywhere you have a place: in an entry way, over the sofa, in the hall, in a bedroom, even in that small nook where you have been thinking of placing something “just right.”

We are really excited about these Wall Photo Groups, and we know you will love them! Now you don’t have to select only one print to display. In that same space, you can have several works of art to express your family’s love. They look great in any room in your home.

Call us today and we will be happy to get started on your new fine art pieces: 909.981.6318.

Photography on a Cloudy Day

cbcphoto — Sat, 26 Feb 2011 19:13:37 +0000

A lot of people put away their cameras when it’s cloudy outside. After all, don’t you need bright sunlight to see beautiful colors and take great pictures? Actually, no. On a bright, sunny day, the sun creates very harsh light and deep shadows which often look very unattractive, especially if you are photographing people. On the other hand, clouds soften the harsh sunlight and create a beautiful outdoor light for taking photographs.

A couple of ideas for cloudy day photography. First, even when it is cloudy, there is still a “direction” to the light. Find that direction by looking for the brightest part of the sky. Second, use your flash! It will make your subject (a person, pet, or object) “pop” out from the background and look great.

So on a cloudy day, grab your camera and make some great images!

Tiffany and Gordon

Tiffany and Gordon were married in the First Baptist Church of Alhambra. The reception was at the San Gabriel Hilton. These two are really in love, and it was nice to see the support from their families, some of whom came half way around the world to be here!

There was a ten-course meal, lots of fun and dancing. Here’s a short video:

Tiffany and Gordon, many blessings for your life together! Thank you for having us be part of your day!
