So now that we have been here a few months and out of the RV  ( believe it or not I took those Cap and Gown pics down below in the previous blog entry in the RV at the tiny RV booth Table near a window, needless to say it was a very tight squeeze, but we managed and Finesse came out Gorgeous) as I was saying, now that we are out of the RV and into a real home...I am beginning to set up my Photography Studio. This home has a really nice Huge area that is perfect for a Photography Studio with its own driveway and entry door for clients to use. So yesterday I got my Backdrops and my Softbox lights and reflectors all unpacked and put together and started organizing my Studio.

I also started changing all the Vendor sites that I am a member of to reflect the San Antonio, Tx. area that I will be working in now...and soon I will put an ad in the Local Newspaper as well. So hopefully soon, I will have a new clientele here in Texas.

It was sad, the week we were moving down I had to turn a Wa. Client down...I shot their wedding and they wanted me to shoot their eldest daughters Senior Portraits. There were a few Portrait appts I had to turn down : (

I thought it would be a nice idea...to start an "Image of the Week" here on my blog. I will begin with the image below...Let me know what you think...I would love to hear your thoughts.

Geez...I've had so many family emergencies come up that I was a week or so behind on getting Ciara and Randal's wedding package together to send to them. I worked on their Coffee Table Book for 3-4 days at the hospital as I sat and waited with Roselie and Finesse...and then when I go to Upload the book to the Book Company...I couldn't, Aaargh! Finally got it to work after a few days or so, meanwhile I was making her DVD Slideshow set to music and putting all 1,000+ edited images on a CD for her. And waited to get her choices for her 8x10's and 5x7's and threw in an additional 8x10, since I was a bit behind getting her her package. But This morning I finally got a response from Ciara of the images that she would like enlarged and so I placed those orders, and then 10 minutes later...The UPS Guy delivered our Coffee Table Books, Yay! (I ordered one for myself) So I will go pick up the enlargements in a sec. and get that package out to them A.S.A.P (By the way the Book is Gorgeous...I think she will be thrilled) Go check out Ciara and Randal's full wedding story images on my website... 

Ciara and Randal thank you so much for your patience and understanding!

Warmest Wishes,

Leticia

I belong to a few wedding vendor sites, and yesterday,  one inparticular site sent me 10 wedding leads in my area for the year 2010, so I bid on them and sent a personal e-mail to each of them, I got a response from one of the couples late last night saying that they are interested, they asked a few questions, so I e-mailed them back...we'll see what happens. It would be nice to finish booking 2010 so early.

I also received a wedding request, from my own website last night...this couple is interested in my "Lace" package.

There are 3 upcoming weddings kinda back to back in the next 2 months that I am busy preparing for. They should be gorgeous weddings. Getting alot of last minute requests, I really am trying to fit them all in! One of the weddings was a referral from a wedding that I did last summer...that is always a good feeling, to know that your work was liked enough to get a referral from it.
