Matt And Julia

I had such a blast photographing Matt and Julia last week.

They had such a natural reaction to the camera. They both should go into modeling...
Their wedding is on April 20th, and I am so exited for their special day. Here are a few photos from their session.





















God Bless everyone!

$5,000!!!

So this week I am working at updating my website, and blog... To get a custom blog it would cost me $5k!

I'm really thinking of doing it... But it IS a lot of money to do so... But for now, I think this blog is doing well for me... RIGHT?

Hopefully.

Janet and Jaime

WOW. Yesterday was a lot of fun.

Angela and I had such a blash photographing Janet and Jaime's wedding! I loved the cultures that were represented.

The wedding was about an hour and a half away, but such a beautiful location.

Here are a few shots from their wedding!

NOTE TO THEIR WEDDING GUEST:

If you would like to be informed when all their photos will be online to view and purchase, please send me and email at sdelacruz@fc.bethany.edu and I will email you once their photos are online.

How good is good?

People ask me all the time "who do you look up to"...

Well, as a person, I look up to TD Jakes, Paula White, and my Pastor Dick Bernal.

As a photographer, I look up to Becker, Jessica Claire, David Jay, Gary Fong, and Mike Colon.

These are people who make it BIG!!!

TD Jakes said in a sermon "If your going to do something, do it all the way! Don't sit around and half ass your way around life..."

From that moment on, I made sure that if I set my mind to it, I'm for sure going to make it happen... No matter what!!!

My goal is to make a difference in this world some how some way. Be it as a photographer, a preacher, a business man, or whatever!

Anyways, so my goal in the next 5 years is this...

Raise my photography pricing up to $6,000 per wedding
Plant a church in San Diego
Open up a day care (Angela is studying to be a teacher...)
Raise the value of my photography skills (a.k.a. GET BETTER AT TAKING PHOTOS!)

Note to prospective clients::: My pricing is not $6,000 per wedding (not until 5 years from now), so please do not be scared to call me! *lol.

I will start posting up personal related, photo related, and business related blogs! So check back often!

God bless all!


* lol means Laughing Out Loud. A way to express laughted in text.

Bags under the eyes...

So, I am learning how to do glamor/fashion photography... And one of the things I am learning is how to edit the skin for a more glamor look. Here is a sample photo I took last night.

Before:



After:



See the difference? bags under the eyes are gone! Yay!!! I'm learning something new!

Keep up to date with me, and I promise to post more often on this blog.

God bless all!!!!
