All of us have something to learn. All of us have something to teach...


I want to start my Monday sharing one of my own very first images and a message I've got yesterday... it made my week :)


I was wondering how you felt about taking on a long distance apprentice? I have been working on becoming a professional and have done a decent amount of client work...
I have seen many of your photos which are AMAZING. I would love the opportunity to talk with you directly about the business, techniques, editing and learn from you. I would be willing to take a trip down at some point as well if that would be helpful. My wife loves Florida and would enjoy the opportunity to visit the area.
I have many people asking for wedding work which I have put off until I am comfortable doing them. They are really important and you only get one shot so I don't want to mess that up. My friends and clients tell me I am so ready but I have to be ready myself.
I apologize this is so long but I am very passionate about this becoming a business for me and even opening a studio near my hometown over the next 2 years... I have been so impressed with you and how you keep busy with clients and adventures.

If you would be willing to help me out please let me know. I would be excited to get the chance to learn from you and become the photographer I can be...Thanks, A


I'm flattered.
As not too many of you know, I do a lot of post-production work for other photogs from around the country, who don't have the time and/or editing workflow path down. Yes, you can call me ghost-editor :)

Editing for me is not about fixing photos but about enhancing images and making them look the best they can be.
Every batch represents a challenge and that has to be the reason why I enjoy it as much as I enjoy taking pictures.
Also, I love to talk about my photographic experiences with start-up photogs. Hopefully my own trials and tribulations help you to understand that photography, like any other craft has to be experienced and... that's the best part of the ride!

I don't know every trick in town but... I'm learning my lessons and I'm more than happy to pass my humble knowledge among others.

Looking forward to help you out A!

Touching up - quick question

G: "I would like to know if your wedding packages include touching up the pictures? The reason that I am asking is because I have scars on my face and I am VERY picky about the way I look in photos. Sometimes the scars don't show up at all and other times they do, I think it just depends on the lighting. Please let me know."

Rosie: "Of course I do. All my final images required light or moderate editing, that includes covering skin imperfections..."

I try to don't over-do-it. Here it is the perfect example... Ahhhhh, perfect skin :)

Coffee table books. Done!

Wow, this was NOT an easy task to accomplish.
Over 3,000 STUNNING images from different trips to organize into many
coffee table books. God bless PS Lightroom!
Everything has been ordered. I can't wait to see them in person.

TGI... Friday!!!

I just finished editing two weddings for CZP... what a ride!
There was a Halloween theme one. So funny, I had a blast.
I wish I was there LOL
Anyway, I feel like I'm getting a cold so I probably will be
working from my bed all weekend long :(
Also, I'm done with the product photography jobs I had.
Taking a break? Hell, naaaaaaaaaaaaaw...
And I like it that way :)
How can I help you? Bring it on.
Have a great weekend.
Rosie

On the road again...

I have to admit... there is nothing more relaxing (for me) than to hit
the road, forget about everything (yes, EVERYTHING) and enjoy the ride.
I have not much time for it these days but I needed so bad...

Now, I'm back! What's new for this upcoming week?
Well, two different editorials want to write about my Bride on-a-budget
services so I'm starting my Monday super excited!
I have plenty of work to take care of so better for me grab another cup
of coffee and... make it happens.
I have new stuff from MelonTreeBaby.com
Sweet 4 September items just arrived as well.
6 more books to go out of 7 for a client who wants to put together their 2008
trips in coffee table books and give them as presents for Xmas to his friends &
family. Cool idea! (over 3,000 photos... not joking)
Later,
Rosie :)

Are you a bride on-a-budget?

Always, my first suggestion is to hire one of the very talented wedding photographers
we have in the market these days. Pros know what they are doing and then some, but...

While the economy isn’t the greatest I understand many couples are putting
this artistic task into the hands of friends and family to save some $$$...
nothing wrong with that.

That's why I started providing photography wedding post-production services to
on-a-budget couples who need to spice their photos up.
My time will be devoted to perfecting your photos through balancing exposure,
contrast, color, etc. Cropping and artistic editing can be applied as well.
DIY project with a Let me Grow Studio kick :)

Singles & in-a-batch images quotes are available upon request.
