LARGE Canvas Prints in Premium Frames

I woke up at 6:04 AM this morning. Really, I woke up earlier. I finally opened one eye and looked at the clock at 6:04. I’d really rather wake up at 10:00 AM if I don’t have an early morning shoot. But my trouble is that I don’t like to go to sleep at night. I’d rather stay up and do stuff…any stuff. Sleeping takes up so much of the day! You might wonder why I’d wake up at 6:04 if I slept after midnight. Well, I do get tired. And if I don’t go to sleep when I’m tired, but rather, I stay up watching 21 different Cirque du Soleil show trailers over and over again, then I get more tired. And the more tired I get, the harder it is to sleep. And the more tired I am, the earlier I wake up. It’s a vicious circle. Take it from someone who knows.

So then you might ask why I spent the last hours of the night watching Cirque du Soleil trailers. Well, yesterday morning, I was catching up with David Ziser’s blog (David is one of my favorite photographers – I’m going to be attending his one week wedding photography masterclass in Kentucky in October, so that I can brush up on my technique), and saw that David was able to catch the permanent Cirque du Soleil O show in Las Vegas. I clicked on the link and was hooked. Actually, a few years ago, I thought about seeing a show, but then kind of forgot about it. Today, though, I don’t think I can forget. Cirque du Soleil’s Ovo show is coming to DC in just a few weeks. But Idrissa and I aren’t really all that into insects and reptiles. I’d rather see the O (LOVE that music! alas, shows in Las Vegas only), Totem, Ka (Las Vegas only), Dralion, Zumanity (NYC and Las Vegas only), Quidam, Zed (Tokyo only), Allegria, or Corteo (touring Europe only). But there’s hope! A light at the end of the tunnel! Click on “buy tickets” for Totem, and it says “coming soon” to Baltimore! Hopefully, it won’t be during our November trip to Burkina Faso, West Africa!

Anyway, onto the photo topic of the day. I printed a 24×36 canvas print in a black premium frame for newlyweds Issy & Jason, and let me tell you, it is STUNNING!!! The colors are spectacular, the quality of the printing is flawless, and the black premium frame is absolutely the right choice for this image. I took a few photos of it before Issy & Jason picked it up last weekend.

Here’s a close-up from an angle, so that you can see the texture of the canvas.

These next two are close-ups of the premium black wood. My clients can choose from gallery wrap canvas prints, where the print wraps around the wood frame, so the frame isn’t visible, or a framed canvas print in a standard black wood frame, or premium black, premium walnut, premium antique, or premium gold frames. I think Issy & Jason made the right choice in selecting the premium black wood!

By the way, after the wedding, I was absolutely floored by the response I got from Issy and her family and friends to the photos. Here’s what she wrote when she reviewed me on WeddingWire.com:

Irene is one of a kind. She is so talented, easy to work with, she’s an instant friend! We truly enjoyed working with her and she was so enthusiastic. We had a very small wedding of 15 but she made our pictures look like so incredibly phenomenal! When my friends saw my wedding pictures, they said stuff like… I wish I could get married again so that I could have Irene as my photographer…. You looked like a movie star…. The pictures made us cry, we felt like we were there…. I would have never thought of taking a picture like that….Fantastic pictures.

I would recommend Irene to anyone! She is worth every penny and much more. I came back from my honeymoon (a week) all the pictures were already posted on the website. I was able to share it with my friends and family all over the world. We will continue to use Irene; I’m thinking Family pictures….

Issy’s friend, Tracy, said:

I wish I could get married again so that I could have Irene take my pictures, those were just fantastic!

Nanette, Issy’s cousin, said:

The pictures are so beautiful. I wish my wedding photographer would have done a work like your photographer. You look so happy, Isabel… The cake looks AMAZING!!!. What else can I say. Everything looked just beautiful, delicate and most important that you were happy on that day. Thank you for sharing the beautiful pictures with us.

Issy also told me that her other cousin, Leta, LOVED the pictures too, she said that “you can feel the happiness.” Both Tracy and Leta said that they cried looking at the pictures.

You know, for most people, it might be a BAD thing to make someone cry. But for me, it’s GOOD! AWESOME! MAKES MY DAY! It tells me that I did GREAT! After all, what is my job? It’s to help people remember and relive one of the most important, wonderful, and happiest days of their lives… What an HONOR…
