RE: Traveling

Hi guys.   Lately I have been on the road a lot.  Right now I’m in Philadelphia.   Yesterday I was sitting talking to clients in my office and my wife brought me downstairs big  red suit case.  I asked her what is it for and she said “Andrey you’re flying to PA tomorrow”  I was like oh already?

Last week I was traveling as well.   I have to be honest and say traveling is kind of fun.  Last week as soon as I landed I called my wife and told her that I came already, she said “what so fast I’m not even home yet”.

Well today I had 5 1/2 hrs flight in the air so it’s longer:) But because I was working so late yesterday I felt asleep and time flew so fast.  I’m learning how to really relax in airplanes and listen to cool music.  So I’m enjoying time in the air.

I can’t promisse that I’ll Blog a lot because Blog takes way too much time and I don’t have extra time this days.  So we’ll see.

Emails

picture-2

Hello today I changed application how I handle my emails and was transferring all emails from server to new email application.   I try to delete most of the emails and only leave emails that are important.  By important I mean address where I need to send DVD’s to couple or some communications that I’ll need to read later.   So it took at least 20 minutes to download-load 2000+ emails.  

 

Amazing how internet changed the way we communicate.

Family(s) photosession

Hello everyone.   Recently I had an opportunity to photograph two different family(s) photoshoots with another
very skillful photographer and friend Oleksandr.    I always LOVE to see Oleksanders work because he works
so hard to make every photo perfect!   

Check out his work at  www.TheOleksandr.com

Meet new family member

All right do you guys remember post few days ago about FREE photoshoot for a kitten.  I actually did get response with photos. So thank-you for participating:)

However we found kittens of the craigslist.  Here is interesting part.  Right before I picked up this kitten my wife Oksana asked me to
stop at the store to buy some bread.  On the way back I meet in the parking lot 2 brides who I photographed several years ago.  We talked little bit and I drove away.

When I came to this house CRAIGSLIST AD to pick up kitten, to my amazement one of the girls who came out was Ira who I photographed wedding
http://mandcphoto.com/ablog/?p=552 in May last year.

So A) Just by driving around the city I meet 3 past clients within 30 minutes.  I should get out more often:)
B)  It was very interesting how I found kitten exactly how we wanted @ by brides friends house.

I know that Ira does check my blog from time to time but I believe by the time she would of read my blog post kitten would be gone.

Post production

Hello everyone.   Today was my longest day behind computer 17 hrs straight.
I have to be honest and say I’m happy I was able to finish so much work.

Working hrs:  Several different guys told me that many times they work thou out whole night!   YES this job is not that easy:(   Some people think that
we (photographers) show up on wedding shoot and that’s it DONE.   I say “AHA I Wish”.   I spend WAY more time behind computer  editing photos
than behind camera.

Mean while here is an image from E-session shoot.   I have finished couple other photo shoots so I’ll put several photos from them as well.

Hi guys.  I know that I haven’t posted new blogs forever, but I’m finally catching up with my productions.  So new posts will be up this week.  And lots of them!!!

Mean while we were looking very hard for kittens and it’s amazing how hard it is to find good one!  We’re sitting on Craigslist and refresh page every 30 minutes or so, as soon as new post with kittens pops up they are gone within 2 hrs or less.   I’m just so tired of checking Craigslist every hrs or so.

So I have decided to put this post:
So if you know of anyone who have cute kittens and can email us photos, I can provide FREE 1 hrs photo shoot for you:)!

Qualification for kitten:
age:  6-8 weeks  old
(3 month is too old)

Color:  We love solid color grey or black but also we really like tiger striped
We do not like black or white or calico color cats where you see big spots.

So if you know of anyone who have CUTE kittens and they can send us photo at tradio2003@yahoo.com

You’re eligibable for FREE 1 hr photoshoot and you’ll get to keep enhanced Hi Quality files.
