How was your Valentine's Day?

I spent my day with my family taking pics of my husband's cousin wedding... it was beautiful! The bride and groom looked so happy... reminded me of my own wedding. We were terrified of course that the pics would not come ok, that the camera would malfunction, we only have done this 4 times in our lives.

But thanks to God all the pics came out wonderful! And here is a preview of a pic showing the details of the cake. I will do the digital album when I finish my studies... so this may be the only pic you see in a long time!
Take good care my friends... and how was your Valentine's Day?

Color correction in Photoshop

When my sister got married, she wanted me to take the pics of her wedding. We did not had any experience, but she wanted us to do it anyway because she knew that if we did it they would turn out ok... so we got the pics and made the album... here are some of the album pages (this was more than 5 years ago!).

Now, one of my husband's cousins is getting married and wants us to take her wedding pics. This will be of course our wedding gift! I get all nervous of course because we don't do this often and it is a once in a lifetime event so if we don't do it right the first time we won't have a second chance. I admire wedding photographers for having those nerves! Well we already did her "Love Story" pictures, here is a couple of them:
A couple of days ago the bride wanted to see if anyone in the family had pictures of her parent's wedding because she wanted to incorporate a picture of her mom in the celebration (she died of cancer when the bride was a little girl). So when she found the pictures, she realized, for her surprise that they had chosen the same color scheme... wow, what a wonderful coincidence!

She asked me to scan the picture of her mom and enlarge it to 8 X 10 in. This was a 4 X 6 photo taken from a normal camera... it was a very simple wedding. So this are the before and after pics. Mother and daughter look very alike!

Now tell me... what do you think of this color correction, does it need more work? Is it OK like this?

Wedding Cake Pop Up Card DIY Templates

I have received LOTS of request for a template to do my Wedding Cake Pop Up Card and here it is!!!  This is my first attempt at a template with instructions, so I hope you like it.  It is a PDF of a generic Bride/Groom card, and it has the instructions on how to make the card pop out. I also included the outside of the card and some circles that you can use to embellish the envelope, add a little note to the invitation, use as a cute tag, and so on. If you download it please leave a comment and let me know what you think!

Well, I need to learn how to do multiple page PDF files from Adobe Illustrator! I will be working on the DIY template for my Cupcake Birthday Invitation and my Treat Box and Cupcake Toppers! They will be available soon at my Etsy Shop (I don't have one yet, but I am in the process!!!).

Note: If you want to put this in your blog, please link to the original post on my blog and not directly to the PDF file. For personal use only. Enjoy!

Wedding Cake Pop Up Card

I needed a wedding greeting card and I came up with this Pop Up Wedding Cake card.  I think it came out wonderful! I also made a little money holder going the theme because the couple requested gifts in cash.  If anyone is interested in a generic Bride/Groom card, please leave a comment and I will make a  freebie PDF file.
