One Million Dollars…

Friday, January 7th, 2011

Over the holidays, I wanted to make a custom photo card that said, “One Million Good Wishes.” What started as a Dr. Evil holiday card shoot turned into a full-page ad for Grace Ormonde’s Wedding Style magazine.

Love it? Love it.

P.S. Hope your holidays were pleasant. I stayed at Bellagio hotel (facebook gallery) and did other things like snowboard, travel, read, etc.

New Year, New Blog

Friday, January 1st, 2010

My girlfriend and I visit Las Vegas quite frequently because it isn’t that far from Los Angeles. Las Vegas provides a nice retreat from mundaneness. While in Vegas, we always enjoy cruising down Las Vegas Blvd. revering the megawatt light show. Most recently, there was a bald spot near New York New York. That part of The Strip was dark and lifeless (lightless). Interesting.

So nearly not being able to sleep with curiosity, we fired up our laptop and started researching. So it’s going to be called “City Center.” It’s divided into various sections and the grand opening of the Aria Hotel is on December 16, 2009. Then it’s settled. We will check it out!

What was supposed to be a planned getaway, Julie and I buried ourselves in the hotel room working away. On the bright side, check out our amazing view! The following is an HDR – where I used three images and combined it into one.

Las Vegas is such a gorgeous city! Next time I come back, I want to shoot a wedding at one of the snazzy hotels – Wynn, Venetian, Treasure Island, Caesars Palace, Palazzo, Paris, MGM – to name a few of my faves!

Happy new year,
