My Young Star, Superstar

“Photos are the best souvenir you can give your baby”. During those years that babies are unaware of their own antics, only photos can prove that it did exist. I may be a little guilty of not capturing as much precious moments of Dos as compared to Uno before (blame it to the non-existence of a reliable phone camera) but at least I tried to document quite a few.

Last July 5, the family was invited to a party in honor of my good friend’s daughter’s birthday. Since I know that my ever reliable photographer/friend, Fidel, will cover the event, I took the chance and booked him for Dos’ photoshoot session after the party - the occasion, just because Dos can then sit-up. J

Of course you know Fidel if you’re a regular here (just a review, he did a photoshoot with Uno, covered Uno’s 1st birthday party and my maternity photoshoot). He’s a part-time, freelance photographer who learned photography by mere passion (mind you, you’ll be the best once you’re passionate about your craft). Aside from his regular work in the corporate world, he also attends to various photography needs as a 2nd source of income. He operates a photobooth for all occasions, he (photo)covers for various occasions and now he does videography too. I warned you, passions can be lethal. For his complete package and rates you can check Uno Events and Multimedia.

Oh btw, he told me he can give free frame (if you booked any of his photo packages), just tell him you read this article. PW: “Blog ni Hushie”. 

PS: If you're a photo critic and saw some flaws in the following photos, blame me. I have to put watermarks.  

             

 

FotoSnaps.com's Photo Book

I remember few years back, mi esposo’s aunt called for a homecoming get-together, she and her husband was vacationing from the US. During the dinner, of course, was the best time for picture taking, but to everyone’s surprise, she brought out the traditional filmed-camera. Everybody teased her and made a good joke out of it. Who wouldn’t laugh out loud? Imagine, in this era of modern digital cameras, you would see a camera with roll-on film, worst from someone who dwelled in the States for a long time. Her only explanation was “I just don’t want to save my photos, I want it printed”. I think that makes sense, I believe in one way or another, every modern digital camera owners are guilty of just storing their photos on the computer or worst delete it when its memory becomes full.

But I found a solution for it, I’m glad I saw a good deal for FotoSnaps.com over the net. It’s a digital photo printing company (of some sorts) wherein your digital photos can be printed in whatever forms that may be appropriate for your need, either photo book, calendars and whatnots. I’m sorry, I’m not really sure of the proper terms for these. What I’m sure of is that, it’s a good way to print your photos. I’ve already tried one project using its software. I made a guestbook for mi bebe’s 1st birthday celebration. I complied all her photos from birth ‘till her 11th month and made a storyline out of it. I also provided callouts for guest to write-in their greetings and wishes for her. I liked the result. I was originally planning to make a scrap book, I’m glad fotosnaps saved me from this hassle. It was more convenient to create a digital scrapbook plus the finished product can be delivered at your doorsteps not to mention its technical support group was very accommodating with my queries.

I’m on my 2nd project now, I am organizing the photos from her 1st birthday and making another album for it. But now, I’m trying out their latest product which is the layflat type album. I have a voucher which will expire this 15th, I’m little on the cram here, so gtg.
