If there was a single picture that could describe the beauty of a Pregnant Woman, I would have to say that the picture that I am showing below would be the one.

When Anna asked me last week to take some Pregnancy Pictures of her on the beach, the only thing that came to my mind was that I needed to make her session my personal challenge.

It would have to be a Photo Session so beautiful that wouldn’t only inspire me as an artist, but it would translate the beauty of a Pregnant Woman with only one click of my camera.

You might think that I am crazy, and that I just took this shot.

No!

She asked me to take few different shots and I wanted to try few different posses too. All together, we got so many good pictures that for sure I am creating one Pregnancy Sample Album for me using just her pictures.

Anyway, I might finish editing the other pictures in one or two days. Whenever I am done, I will post few more pictures of here session here.

“HERE ARE MY THOUSAND WORDS!!!”

If you want your Pregnancy Photo Session taken by a Top International Photographer, leave a comment below and I will contact you as soon as possible.

But even if you don’t need a photographer, I would love to read your comments anyway.

Today the PPGF Association (Photographers) had a great family barbecue at John U. Lloyd Beach State Park. Ok… It was more a Picnic than a barbecue, but since we are in America… let’s say that it was a barbecue. OK?

Everything was perfect; a lot of people from our association showed up with their families. My wife and my son (Peggy and Ryan) came with me, so we could have some good time together.

As I said, everything was great; good food, great people and a perfect weather. What else can you ask for?

Here are some more pictures of our beautiful day. Enjoy it!

That is it… I hope you have enjoyed.

Please, leave some comment below. Thanks!!!

I hope you are up and dancing in no time.

Have fun with this video!!!

I would like to say an extra thanks to the people of PPGF for this great seminar and all the great prizes.

The topic was “Family Portrait”, including how to manage a home based photography studio”.

As you might know, 90% of my business is Wedding Photography, but once a while I break this rule and try to accommodate some clients that need me to help them with some other events (Bar/ Bat Mitzvah, Sweet Sixteen or even some Portraits).

I loved the way that Tammy explained how she runs her home based photography business, and how she interacts with her clients.

If you live close to Ocala, and need a Photographer, I would recommend you contacting Tammy before you talk to any other photographer in the area. You are not going to regret it.

On the other hand, if you live here in South Florida, just give me a call and I will try to help you with your next Photography Project (events, portraits and etc) the best as I can. All depends on how busy my schedule would be for that period.

If for some reason I can not be your photographer, I will personally help you to find another photographer in this area. OK?

Yesterday morning I had a Photo Shoot Session with Preston. He works every morning at the front desk of our GOLD’S GYM.

We had so many good shots, but I still have to edit few of them… Here is just one of the shots that we did yesterday. Let me know what you think. OK?

Unfortunately, I didn’t have to much time to edit any of the pictures to ad to that post, so today I am doing that.

Last year, Stefano’s party was great, and so was the party yesterday. A lot of balloons, food, drinks, a giant ELMO, and a Clown doing some face painting.

I want to thank Mariane and Carillo (Stefano’s parents) for inviting me to be part of Stefano’s special day. I also want to thank Carol for helping me with the photos.

Here are some of the shots that I selected to post here (if you want to see al the pictures taken, please write a comment below with your email address, so I can send the link where the other pictures will be posted)

Carillo was ready to his son’s party.

Look how happy Mariane was watching Stefano playing with his golf cart.

Gramdpa couldn’t hide his excitement.

Grandma and Grandpa came from Brazil just for the birthday… Hey… You guys look to cool to be grandma and grandpa.

Did I mention that the party theme was: Elmo’s World?

She did a great job painting the kid’s faces

Sorry everybody, but I have to say that… This is my 1st place of the day… What a great picture!!!

This is a picture of Mariane’s Family… Such great people. Did I mention that they came from Brazil just for this birthday?

If you want to see all the pictures from this birthday, Please write a comment below with your email address. Thanks!!!

But if you don’t want to see all the pictures from this birthday…

You can still write a comment saying how much you love me…

For the last few days, I have been very busy writing some articles about Wedding Photography. I am submitting them to some different Magazines and Websites here are the titles:

- Life Might Give you Second Chances, Wedding Photography Will Not!

- Why should I hire a Top Wedding Photographer?

- How to Find a Top Wedding Photographer?

- Which Wedding Photography Package Should I Choose?

- How to avoid wedding photography fiasco.

Whenever they come live online, I will post the URL here. OK?

This is a very creative video that will teach you 101 tips for short-cuts in Photoshop. If you don’t know what Photoshop is, or you don’t care about the short-cuts, you might not enjoy this video as much as I did. But, if you like Photoshop, go ahead and get a pen and paper… You are going to need it.

This is a Music Video, more like a Video-Clip (MTV style), that will certainly help you with your Photoshop skills.

Enjoy it!

I would love to know what you think about this post.

Today we celebrate “Independence Day”.

4^th of July is a very important Holiday, maybe the most important American Holiday.

Today, even if is just for today, I want you to forget if you are Democrat or Republican, if you leave on East or West Coast, I want you to forget if you are Rich or Poor, and I don’t care what country you were born, because today we are Americans.

Today I want to see you smiling… because I will be smiling back at you!!!

Today I want you to give me your hand… because I’m coming to shake yours!!!

Tonight I want you to stand proud at the first blast of the fireworks and remember…

… Today is our INDEPENDENCE DAY!

HAPPY 4th of JULY

PS. The dog on this picture, is my big baby MAX (isn’t he cute?)

As you know, I like read and study a lot. I am always looking for a way to improve my income and share this knowledge with other people. I also like to check all kind of opportunities that Internet has to offer.

Today, we celebrate the 4^th of July, and with my wife and son traveling, it left me to much time on my hands to check all kind of Crazy Websites.  So, I want to share with you what I just found about this new way to make money.

I want you to watch this next video very carefully (not even 60 seconds).

You are not going to believe what your eyes are going to see.

Here you go…

I told you… I have to much free time on my hands.

:-) 

I wish that I could teach you how to make money that easy.

Anyway…

Happy 4^th of July!!!

Blog, Twitter and Flickr…, these are my three new great ways to keep in contact with people that want to know a little more about me and my work.

If you are reading this post, means that you are on my Blog ( www.paulopics.com/blog ). Here I write about some of my work, clients and some personal stuff also.

My next “thing” is TWITTER. There, I write 3 or four times a day just little sentences about what I am doing of my day. You can also check the notes from Twitter on the landing page of my website www.paulopics.com.

And two months ago I signed to FLICKR (you can post some random pictures there). I use Flickr to organize a group that I created FORT LAUDERDALE PHOTOWALK. There you can check not just pictures that I’ve taken, but also pictures of everybody that is part of that group.

Let me know if I can help you with your Blog, Twitter or Flickr. OK?

On this Sunday, where my wife and son are traveling for my wife’s family reunion, I woke up late with the whole house in silence. I could even hear a far way sound of singing birds outside of the house.  After a fast breakfast, I came to the computer to edit some more of my work, but something changed inside me when I decided to have a break and came across this 60 seconds video.

May I have 60 seconds of your time to make you smile?

Peggy is a talented Photo-Stylist and she has been traveling all over the country helping her clients to create a personal and unique image for their catalogs and commercials. She works with clients like; Nike, The Home Depot, Kmart, Frontgate, McDonald’s, Macy’s and so many other companies and celebrities that it would take to much of your time if I have to mention all them here.

Anyway…

She has two very strong agencies representing her: Team and Ford, but once a while she has some other stylists or photographers asking asking her to see her work.

This week she asked me if I could create a website for her, so she could organize some of her work there to people see them. It might take few days until I finish the whole project, but I wanted to show you what the Landing Page will look like.

let me know what you think. OK?

Any Comment?
