So my winter break is over….. I have taken a two month or so hiatus from the blogging world to get my barrings and prepare a few things…. The new studio is just about finished in Scanton and Janet and I are 10 weeks out from being parents. Indie as we have grown accustomed to calling him is just about cooked and ready to appear. For those of you who have missed seeing weddings and engagement shoots on a weekly basis don’t be discouraged. They are about to hit the blog in full force this month. We have 20 or so weddings from 2010 to hit the blog over the next few months but for now I thought I would share a session I did yesterday in Scranton…..

I love details….. Eloise and Dorian Butovich from Central Park Flowers in Scranton did a design spread for the Scranton Cultural Center called Dinner by Design. As people know who follow my blog I’m big fans of Dorian & Eloise they really have a feel for design elements that is rare in NEPA. If you’re planning an event you can’t go wrong with these guys they consistently blow my brains into little pieces with their work.

Save The Date Cards

One of the coolest parts of my job is helping people design “Save The Date Cards” for their wedding. This couple is from DC and invited me down to the Washington Mall for their engagement session this week. This is one of the options I designed for them that kind of melted my brain a bit.

Just thought I would throw something different on the blog today as this is a service that I offer as part of our wedding packages.

For information on how we can do something like this for your wedding feel free to email me at Dlanton@darkershadesofbrown.com and we can make it happen for you.

iPad Wedding Albums

We here at Darkershadesofbrown Photography have been talking about this for a few weeks on twitter and facebook and have created a bit of a stir so today I wanted to let everyone know that that we are officially launching our iPad Wedding albums. Ever since I had my eyes on this amazing device I have been thinking of ways to get them into my customers’ hands. So much is changing in how we display our images to our friends and family over the last few years and I can’t tell you how many requests I have received about how to best have images available for things like facebook and personal wedding blogs that people have created for their wedding.

After much thought I think we finally came up with an answer…

The Apple iPad will give you the freedom to personally show your friends all those wedding images you find in your wedding gallery….

Have you ever wanted to:

Create your own slide-shows and load your own music from your itunes account?

Get your images on Facebook?

Show your friends your images without having to bring them over to your house and open up your album?

Something tells me you have and now you can and with the purchase of this album option we will give you a one hour tour with your new device and show you the best way to do all of those things

Does this mean we are getting rid of our albums? Not at all, but we want to give you that additional option and provide a solution to that question you have asked us about displaying images digitally.

For more information about how you can get this option added to your wedding package as well as a demo of how it all works you can give us a call or email us at Dlanton@Darkershadesofbrown.com

Paloma’s Nest

Sometimes I wish I had more time to spend putting up some of the more amazing wedding vendors I have worked with this past year. Some of the stuff going on in the industry right now is just pretty much a plate full of awesome. A few weeks ago I emailed
Caroline Colóm Vásquez of Paloma’s Nest and asked if I could throw some blog love her way. From a photographers perspective or at least this photographers perspective weddings are all about the little details. The more eye candy I have to get my camera lost in the better. Last year Kristy Rice from Momental Designs introduced me to her work when we all collaborated on a tablescape session and I have fallen in love with Carolin’s work ever since.

Be sure to check out her shop here and her amazing blog here.

Brides…. Get on over and check out her work. I would love to see some of these deigns in some photographs this year.
