Wow this post is overdue but if you have seen the Facebook post on October 24th I have mentioned something like “Had an opportunity to photograph a unique project today, here is a sneak peek of a selfie on the roof top. It was so bright it acutely made my eyes water.” But anyways, here’s what I have been doing in the past few months.

I have mentioned this to some of my clients but not only do I love to photograph portraits/weddings but I do have architectural degree from Penn State. Which in reality I do like architecture, and after working in the field of architecture (plus engineering) I just didn’t like to sit behind the desk for hours working on one project for a very very very long time. After I started photographing as my career I always wondered how I can use my architectural degree in photography area, and few years after practice I jumped in fully into architectural photography full on.

The project that you see in this blog post is one of the major project that I have done in the beginning of that route. This was incredibly challenging because I knew that there will be lots of editing for this project because of all the power lines in front of the building. Yes there are simple way to delete them from the images but the owner wanted the sky to remain in the windows from that evening and next day morning. So after long hours of editing you don’t even know that there are power lines right in front of the building. The end result is fantastic and I love the images from this project. I am definitely looking forward to be doing this kind of projects more often now.

So I wanted to talk about something new. Yet for some of you, you have noticed it already but I still want to make an announcement about it. What am I talking about? Its the new logo design for my business.

Some time just before end of last year I got to talk to a wonderful person who designs logos and not only logos but she and her partner does very good job at web designs, cards and much more. Who am I talking about? Well its Jenny Cross from TwoTone Creative. Jenny did a great job because I was looking for a very versatile log design since I am now not only going to be photographing weddings, portraits, but also architecture and real estate. This did make me wonder how would this be possible because one field is completely opposite from another. Yet this did not stop Jenny from creating something this good and with a clear message in the logo + text.

So check out their website here and also like their page on Facebook.

Jenny thank you for your hard work and creating something this great with me being so difficult at times =) I appreciate from the bottom of my heart of what you have done and looking forward working with you and your company in the near future.

Its been a long time since I have written any blog posts, but also its been very, very, very busy end of the year for me. Lots has happened and lots is about to happen but its all for the best of this company. I am taking new risks and new routes in photography and yet I am enjoying every minute of it.

But this post is to introduce the new website or should I say a new landing website. I am still going to do wedding photography and portrait photography here in Denver or for new client in California. But the new route is architectural and real estate photography.

So check it out with the link below or just type in Shutter Avenue Photography in your search engine. Which will also have my new logo on it as well.

I do want to mention someone’s name who helped me to create my new landing page and something else (that will be in the next blog post), it is Jenny Cross from TwoTone Creative. Thank you Jenny, you have been a great help to me by explaining how not only CSS works but with other things as well. So check out her website and also their Facebook page here.

So after trying to fight whatever I got I am officially calling in sick. I will post new and upcoming things next week, but now heading to bed to get better. In the meanwhile check out some ideas for winter weddings from Pinterest:

So its very hard to predict what will be in trend five years from now and even what will be next year especially here in Denver. Now I am not putting Denver down but as a Denver wedding photographer and understanding fashion photography to some degree, Denver is not really popular with fashion. If you would like fashion you would need to go to Milan, Paris, London, or even to New York for latest trends, but I will still give out my best advice not only to Denver but to everyone who is looking for what to expect.

For most part of what I see designers are doing is off the shoulder necklines more of cap-sleeves look. This is a good thing, because some brides don’t really want strapless or shoulder wedding dress and this could be a nice medium for them.

Also and I have mentioned this in previous post but the trend is still going strong, I’m talking about color. From the fashion show in NY for upcoming Spring 2015 collections lots of designers are introducing color mostly blues, grays and even light green. For me personally I would love to see brides to pick up on this and not being shy of going away from white.

This one has been around but is picking up more and more it is modern minimalism. I do have to say I personally like the styles that I have seen for this because it’s very sleek, modern and nothing to fancy but the look is gorgeous.

And finally but not least collars are now being introduced again. This help brides to show of the neck line and also to create an illusion of longer neckline.

Now I know this is just four points but in reality there a much more that has been happening in trends for 2015, but with that said not all will make it to next year because well, they are way out there and I am sure that every day bride will not want it. Another pointer to make is about places like David’s Bridal, yes they have lots of dresses but they don’t set the standard at all. All they do is sell what is most sellable and profit to them, so if you are a bride look for shops that will actually listen to you and create a dress that you want not what the shop tells you.
