Jenifer and Bryan’s wedding and reception took place in Dallas, TX at the home of Bryan’s parents. The natural lighting in the backyard was fantastic and made for some great images. Additionally, it was a pleasure to work with Jenifer and Bryan…they are a wonderful couple and truly in love!
Some highlights from the day…
Despite inclement weather, Tricia and Darrell’s wedding was wonderful! The couple looked fantastic thanks to makeup artist Meagan Sparks, and Chelsey Dane and her team from Bride Associates did a phenomenal job coordinating the event!
Both the ceremony and reception took place at the Four Seasons Resort in Las Colinas. Cameron Fox of The DJ Company was very impressive and a pleasure to work with! Romano’s Bakery created an exquisite (and very tasty) cake, with catering provided by the Four Seasons.
Some favorites that we captured from their day…
Erica and Jay were married at The Wistera Place in Mesquite, TX with the reception following. With the weather finally cooling off after a scorching summer, it was the perfect evening for a wedding.
Jay is going to be deployed to Afghanistan in a few weeks and I want to wish him well and thank him (and all our military personnel) for the great commitment and sacrifice. Our freedoms exist because of people like Jay who take up the great cause of protecting our nation. God Bless him and all our armed servicemen!
Lilian & Edwin were married at The Chapel of the Cross in Dallas, TX with the reception at Level 2. It was a beautiful day for a wedding. Some of the images from the big day are below.
Over the past few weeks, it became apparent that I needed a computer upgrade. Using Photoshop and multi-tasking all the time is very demanding on my system. But after some reasearch and a few minor hardware upgrades, I realized I really do not need a new system.
First of all, I have to say, kudos to Microsoft on what appears to be a phenomenal operating system. Windows 7 Beta (Release Candidate) is simply amazing! I think the Apple crowd just lost a great deal of bragging rights. The interface, stability and ease of accessing programs and data is incredible. Microsoft actually listened to their consumer base this time around and added features, navigation capabilities and functionality that have always been missing. It only took me about 20 minutes to install the entire Operating System!
Windows 7 is not even official. In fact, it is still in beta mode but the feedback, enthusiam, and migration from Vista is happening so quickly, that even a risk-averse person like myself made the transition. Oh, and I forgot to mention…it’s free! Of course, the catch is its free until March 1, 2010 after which it will automatically shut down every 2 hours. And then, on June 1, 2010 it expires. So, I have to purchase it by March-10 but at least it is free till then.
Additionally, I added some RAM ram, installed a faster hard drive and things are much, much, much faster. Applications, files and boot and shut down times are blazing! In a few months, the newest line of hard drives calls Solid State Drives will be much more affordable and then, things will really fly! But until then, I am very excited with Windows 7 and not having to shell out for an entire new system.
So I highly recommend this system and you should consider upgrading to Win7. After all, it’s free (till March 2010). (And if your current chip is built for it, go for the 64-bit version.)
Here is a little video clip of Vista on one of those Solid State Drive I mentioned earlier. This drive will be my next upgrade in a few months. On the left: today’s systems. On the right: tomorrow’s systems. Watch how fast the computer on the right loads 51 programs. (And it is even faster with Win7.)
