NEW LOGO :)

Hello everyone,

Last night, I was trying to create something different for my logo and have no idea where to start... I've always wanted my logo to be simple that is why I used a signature type logo; company logo's are somewhat first impression for your prospective clients, its the first thing that they see. anyways, after soooooo many revisions, I've narrow it down to this design :); simple yet elegant. :)

2nd Place Overall for 09 Summer Competition of ISPWP

hi everyone,

I just want to share the result of my first ever photo competition, though its not as huge and grand as the WPPI contest but ISPWP (International Society of Professional Wedding Photographers) is also my first formal organization that I was apart of. They screen and select each applicant making sure that photographers that submit application qualifies the organizations standard. Visit their site

anyways, ISPWP conducts quarterly competition, members only exclusive :). So for the Summer 09 Contest, I joined the competition and it was my first ever photo competition locally or internationally. My main purpose of entering was, I wont know how my images will stand against the best photographers out there if I wont join. So this evening I got an email from them about the contest results and I was sooo happy that I belonged to the top 20 and it was even better that I ranked 2nd Place overall during this quarters competition!!!! WHew!!!! but kudos to the 1st placer Vinicius Matos of La Foto from Brazil who entered with great and solid images....

Ranking 2nd Place overall is more than what I expected, I just want to be able to place my images to the top 10 of some of the categories that I entered. Hopefully next quarter I'll be able to maintain my rank or even grab the Photographer of the Quarter hehehehhe but it doesn't hurt to dream :)..

Here are the categories and images that place in the top 10.

1st place - Kids will be Kids


4th place - Kids will be Kids


9th place - Family Love


5th place - Decisive moments


3rd place - Bride Portrait


5th place - Bride and Groom


2nd place - Engagement

10th place - Venue


2nd place - Framing the subject


9th place - Movement and motion


10th place - All about light
