On Thursday I took some pictures of My son’s T-ball team (blue) Playing against the Dark green team ( Click here to read the other post and check some samples ).

I just sent all the pictures that I took that day to PICTAGE. Pictage is a company that handle my photography files and you can order any picture from the T-ball game direct from them ( Click here to check the pictures ) .

But…

In one or two days I will post here a Video Slide Show that I am creating with that pictures…

Come back in few days to watch the show… I think that you will be amazed!!!

Every Tuesday and Thursday, My son (Ryan) have been playing T-ball.

Yesterday, Ryan’s team (blue shirt) played against the dark green team.

I took a lot of pictures, because I want to try a new idea tht I have for a Slide Show.

All the Pictures will be available for Viewing and Purchase in few days (I will post the address here in few days. OK?).

But…

Since I promised to the parents that I would write a post in my Blog showing a preview of the pictures, here are few of the pictures that I selected.

I hope you like…

Don’t forget… I love comments. OK?

This week I was playing with few of the new actions from Kubota Actions that I bought in Vegas (WPPI - 2008).

I wanted to go over few older pictures that I did and check how the actions could improove the quality of my work.

From now on, you might see more and more of my work integrated with these actions.

Give a look and tell me what you think.

Here is another picture that I took from my son Ryan on Sunday.

Is that a cool picture… or it is just a Sucker Dad’s opinion?

Just having fun…

What else can I say. I normally spend my weekends on my computer, or watching some TV show that I saved during the week. Yesterday was different

My wife, my son and I went to a birthday from my son’s friend, that was celebrating his 3th birthday. It was a very casual party and they mentioned in the invitation to bring Swimming Suit.

Good food, pool with heated water and a perfect weather… What else could I ask?

Look this picture that I took from My son and his girlfriend.

Cassandra and Luke are going to get married in September of 2008. Cassandra (the bride) contacted me few weeks ago asking me to be their Photographer. After few emails back and forward, I finally met her (Luke, with his very busy schedule, couldn’t be there).

I have a very personal rule before I accept to cover a wedding. I have to feel a good connexion between the couple and I, so I would be sure that I am their best option.

As I was saying, I met Cassandra few weeks ago to talk about her Wedding. For my surprise, she is a bride that really knows what she wants. I know that most of the brides have their dress, flowers, church and other details ready few months before the Wedding date, but Cassandra had every single little detail ready. It is even hard to explain with words how good I felt knowing that I will have the privilege of being their Photographer on that special day.

But, what impressed me the most was that she gave me the the address of their Wedding Website. I don’t want to spoil the surprise, so…  Here is how she explained it to me:

“The reason I created my wedding website was to keep our friends and most important our out of town family up to date with wedding info… I wanted our family and friends to feel like they could enjoy the entire process of our wedding with us… To see when we made up our minds on certain aspects of our wedding… I thought the website was an important part of our wedding since my FH has so many friends and family all over the place… ”

Here’s the Link to their Wedding Webpage

www.mywedding.com/lukeandcassyhooper

You will have to sign up to see the site and here is the webpass: Hooper

She was getting spam on their guestbook so she had to make a webpass…  

Few weeks from now, I will be taking their Engagement Session. I am sure that Cassandra and Luke’s pictures will make my next sample book.

If you are a bride or know somebody that is getting married, please check Cassandra and Luke’s Wedding Webpage. You are going to be amazed!!!

As I wrote few days ago, Last weekend I helped my wife with few Editorial Pictures for her Portfolio “RED SHOES”.

Here is the other picture:

Which one do you like the most?

Today is April 7th 2008… It is my birthday!!! I don’t know why the date on my blog says that it is April 8th… It is still 11:47 pm (April 7th), but anyway…

I couldn’t let the day end without leave a little post about this day.

There was a time that I couldn’t wait for this date. Presents, party, etc… It was so much fun.

Today, the feeling is not the same. Today is just a regular day. Actually a good day!

Does everybody feels the same way about their own birthday?

Anyway…

For you guys that come to my blog once a while…

I am glad that you can be a part of my day.

Sincerely,

Paulo Jordao

Yesterday I was helping my wife Peggy with some ”Still Life Photography” for her portfolio.

We spend half of the day preparing props, lights and everything else for this shoot. She had two different sets that she wanted to try. Here is one of them.

What do you think?

I have been really busy lately… No complaining here

It has been very hard to write a post every day. But I was looking here one picture that I took few weeks ago (Easter) and I thought that you would like to see it.

I went Egg Hunting with my wife and son  on this little park not to far from my house. At the park, there were at least 100 kids waiting for the Easter Bunny. The sky was dark and almost raining.

I was taking some pictures of some people around and I noticed this woman looking in my direction, so I took the shot.

It look a nice shot… What do you think?
