Free for Mac users….. Custom Stationery

I am really really excited about this!!!!!!!!! My husband….. the genius that he is, figured out how to make custom stationery out of the template stationery that comes standard with Mac computers. It really is simple to do. All you need to know how to use is Photoshop software!!!! Rather than bore you with all the details here… if you are interested in learning how to do this for your business, please email me at lisa@ellegphotography.com

It doesn’t get better than FREE:)

Playing with Photoshop actions

I definitely stepped out of my little comfort box that I live in and decided to challenge myself and photograph my neighbors Ashley and Moose. After I shot the images, I wanted to try some unique effects and enhance the images. This is always a good idea if you plan on making your images into canvas or enlarging them to frame and hang on the wall. A professional photographer is able to add an artistic touch while removing wrinkles and distracting elements in the image too. I decided to play around with some of the best Photoshops actions out there! My favorites are Totally Rad Actions from the Boutwells. Kevin Kubota’s Actions definitely come in a close second.
I also recently heard about The Pioneer Woman and decided to try some out! I was pleasantly surprised. Plus the Pioneer Woman actions are free! How cool is she? Thank you so much Ree!!!

The Bristol Hotel wedding ~ Brian and Janine

Carrie and I started off shooting Brian and Janine around Balboa park. There’s always a zillion great places to shoot there. They met up before they said “I do” to get some beautiful portraits with them and their wedding party. We headed over to the Organ Pavilion just as it started to sprinkle a bit. That didn’t stop us though……..

During our short time there, I captured what might be one of my favorite of all time images……..just check out those AMAZING eyes!

This was a Jewish wedding that was held at The Bristol Hotel downtown. I love the modern look that the Bristol had going…even the bedspreads in the rooms were unique.

Point Loma Naval Base wedding ~ Jenn and Todd

As per usual lately, I shot this wedding with Carrie McCluskey….I just love that girl!
This was a wedding my mother would have loved. The theme was Poinsettias…very fitting since the wedding was just before Christmas!
The wedding of Jenn and Todd took place on Point Loma’s Naval Base. It was a beautiful setting right on the water. The government owns the most beautiful sections of San Diego and I just love exploring it!
