In search....

I am looking to find a new printer for wedding invitations. My new printer doesn't print anything along those lines, and my old printer isn't the best choice.

I've scoured the internet for wedding invitations, and most of the sites out there are for pre-made invitations.

If anyone knows of any sites where you can upload a design please let me know! Thanks!

Adobe

For all you Adobe fans out there, I thought I'd let you know that you can try a lot of Adobe's products out for free for 30 days.

Warning: This will cause you to be hooked on their products and you'll most likely contemplate buying whatever program you downloaded.

Very Exciting!

I recently found a new printer who is Earth-friendly! They used 100% wind power and don't use certain finishes on their products that are harmful to the environment. So now my clients have the option for me to use this new printer if they would like!

Cakes on the Side

A few years ago I stumbled into cake decorating. It has grown significantly over the years, so of course I have made myself business cards! These are actually the second batch - I added my blog and changed the photos on the back. For internet purposes only, I changed my phone number to my email address. I rather not have my cell phone number out on the internet. :)

CS4

Last Wednesday I attended an all day seminar on CS4 - the newest Adobe Photoshop. The name of the seminar was Photoshop for Photographers, and each of the five classes were about different things you can do with your photos. It was very interesting because I have never altered any of my own photos for my website, just photos for recreational purposes and photos owned by an architectural firm I worked at.

The speaker opened a new door of options I never considered for my own photos. I tend to feel that if you alter your photograph more than just dodging, burning, and things of the sort - it enters the art world and leaves the photography world. It seemed that the speaker at the seminar had the same feelings. He would refer to his heavily photoshopped images as "illustrations" instead of photos.

I've decided that I'm going to work with some of my photos and see what I come up with. I have a new note on my website that says my photos are not altered or photoshopped unless otherwise noted - this way it is clear which photos are originals, and which are so called "illustrations".

I'm excited to see what I come up with!
