Alto Revisited

I had done this one before but as a special request this one was done in a frame with no border and I believe it does look really nice too.

Colorful Sunset

This is a small image that we had printed, the colors on this sunset were astonishing and Michelle had fun finding a frame and mat to match the picture. I actually like it so much that would like to see it in a bigger format. I may still do it but in the meantime we offer this one.

Alto

This is just one cool image. "Alto" or stop not only applies for cars making stops at intersections but it can also be applied to a very diverse amount of situations. Stop drinking when you think you had enough. Stop texting while driving, as my daughter says, texting while driving is the equivalent to drinking and driving for teens. Stop when you hear the word "No", no means no. Stop, think and then act.

Why in Spanish? Because Michelle captured this image in Mexico.

Welcome to the Team Nikki

This is the invitation to our second Photo Exhibition designed by the newest member to our team. Nichole Duckworth.

Yes, my daughter Nikki has join the team and is jumping on the band wagon. Nikki's talents are of the graphic design kind. To date she has designed our logo, our business cards, our exhibit invitations and is the provider of the vector art images as well. She will join Michelle and I as a full partner as soon as she graduates from the Phoenix Art Institute in about two or three weeks. I am excited to have her on board and I am sure between the three of us we'll come up with many great and exciting images.

Right now we are planning our second photo exhibition, my son and his wife will gracefully be the hosts. In our first exhibit we had about 12 available frames for sale and three for display only. Our goal was to have at least 20 for our second one and we have met that goal thanks to the profits from previous sales.

This is a learning adventure in process and we are having fun doing it. As always I encourage you to leave us comments on what you see here, your suggestions and critiques are always welcomed too.

Why Morty? Ever since I watched the 1993 movie "Undercover Blues" with Dannis Quaid and Kathleen Turner we refer to "muerte" as "morty". I wish I could get into the details of the movie plot but suffice it to say that the hard core killer in the movie called himself "muerte" and the two government agents (Quaid and Turner) kept pronouncing it "morty". Funny movie! Matter of fact it's time to rent it again to laugh about it again.

Michelle captured this image in Las Vegas during her honey moon. I believe this is at the Treasure Island hotel. When Michelle sent the picture to be enlarged I told her, "Who is going to buy that?" Well, guess what, as soon as my other daughter saw it she said, "That is for me, please put it in a frame". Go figure!

Chuck And The Puppy

My little dog - a heartbeat at my feet.

I found a quote from Edith Wharton for this image in "Welcome to the Quote Garden" and thought it was very appropiate for it.

The above is another image captured by Michelle. That is my daughter's leg and by it is her little dog. The dog at the time this image was captured was almost a newborn and just wanted to be carried by her. When she put him down he just curled and cuddled by her leg. Such a lovable image just had to be framed and displayed.

We are getting request like this where Michelle's photographic talents come in so handy. As I mentioned before, she has an eye for capturing the best images and that is not something you learn in any school. Talent, you either have it you you don't.

An Aunts Love

During my niece's first birthday party Michelle was commissioned to take pictures of the event. If you know Michelle then you know that there will be plenty of great pictures.

One of the many images captured that day was this one of Maryita lifting and kissing Fernanda. I can't think of anything other than the great love that aunt and niece have for each other. I think the name "An Aunts Love" is very appropriate.

We did this frame at the request of Maryita as she wants to remember this particular moment for Many years to come.


An aunt is someone special to remember with warmth, think of with pride, and cherish with love.

Michelle's style without a doubt is pretty unique. In this capture, she placed the camera on the floor and took an otherwise plain and boring street scene and through the magic of Photo Shop just by altering the image's colors she created an awesome looking photo. The colors she used give the picture the effect of a cold winter day although in Phoenix where this image was captured cold winter days are few and far. It was well received during our photo exhibition and I am sure some one will bring it home very soon.
