Katherine and Michael. Ponte Vedra Wedding.

Looking forward to Katherine and Michael getting married tomorrow at The Ponte Vedra Inn and Club Spa. We'll be updating images to this post. Stay tuned!

Wedding Ingredients:

Venue : Ponte Vedra Inn and Club Spa.

Florist : Tiffany Marus from Liz Stewart Floral Design.

Photography : Ronnie, Wes and Renzo from The Team of Ron B. Wilson Photography, Inc.

Above an engagement image taken by Ronnie from Ron B. Wilson Photography, a few months back!

What a great day it was! We had a little rain coming throught the day before, but this day was just perfect. A little clouds gave us the impression that some rain was possible... but didn't happen.
The wedding day went so smoothly. Katherine looked stunning for her wedding. The hair and make up were a hit. The families gather along for an outdoor ceremony on the backyard of the Spa at the Ponte Vedra Inn and Club. The predominant colors were red and white for the flower arrangements by Liz Stewart Floral Design with some nice touches on glass. The programs were also circular black and white little books  with a purple ribbon. The bridesmaids were dressed in black for a very classy look.
The bride's dress was white with a very nice detail of a jewel butterfly at the waist level, mathching her earrings and hair piece for a complete look!
The reception was at The Gym Salon of the Ponte Vedra Club as well. The tables were decorated with black and white table clothes with silver candle holders and floral arrangements. The dinning room had a great oceanview...
Congratulations to Katherine and Michael on this new chapter on their lives!

NEW YORK WEDDING. KATIE/PASCAL MARRIED. ALGER HOUSE NYC

Had an amazing weekend in NYC shooting alongside with Ronnie from Ron B. Wilson Photography, Inc this past weekend. A very interesting American - French couple. So excited to post some images soon.



I had a great weekend in NYC, shooting this phenomenal couple! There are so many photo opportunities in New York City. Actually, I took a break from the wedding celebration and walk around the city shooting some architectural photos as well. Many details, graffitis, different strokes of people... many flavors to record.

To top it all, we enjoyed a Broadway show that I strongly recommend: Priscilla, the queen of the desert. It was a simple but colorful show. The customs were amazing!

One of the things that make an impact on me were the DJ's from Scratch Weddings. The music selection was spectacular, one minute we had a song in French, the next one a Country song, and some Spanish and Brazilian selection. Really special...

Venue : Alger House

Recommended best practices for digital photography

SYSTEM SET-UP
Hardware
* Invest in the best monitor you can afford, and keep it regularly calibrated and profiled in an appropriately illuminated area.
* Acquire lots and lots of hard drive storage capacity.
* Maintain your computer and operating system properly.

CAPTURE
* Shoot raw, if possible. This provides the highest image quality and the most flexibility for image correction and interpretation.

COLOR
* Embed and preserve the appropriate color profiles in image files.
* Use a large color space for image editing.
* For the best possible results, profile your camera and printer.
* When delivering image files, make sure all parties understand color profile requirements.

IMAGE EDITING
* Use parametric image editing tools fir as much image editing as possible.
* In order to enable non - destructive image editing in Photoshop, use and save layers, adjustment layers and smart objects to master files.

FILE FORMAT
* Use TIFF or PSD as working file formats.
* Use JPEG or TIFF as delivery file formats.
* Use TIFF os PSD as file formats to archive rendered master files.
* Use DNG to archive raw file data.

STORAGE AND ORGANIZATIONAL PRACTICES
File Management
* Assign unique file names to images in order to distinguish one file from another and to prevent overwriting of files.
* Create a naming convention that is easy to use and remember and that can be automated.
* Use folders to organize and store files.
* Use metadata and cataloging software to manage the content of your image collection and to stramline image searches.
* Design workflow according to image lifecycle phases: capture, ingestion, working and archive.

Metadata
* Embed credit, contact and copyright information in all image files.
* Add bulk metadata to describe the shoot and add keywords as necessary.
* Use the appropriate metadata field for more specific tags such as location.
* Be aware of programs and workflow steps that may strip metadata.

Backup
* Use a 3-2-1 backup (3 copies, 2 different media, 1 stored offsite) whenever possible.
* Clearly distinguish the primary and backup copies of your digital image files.
* Schedule system backups to occur at appropriate places in the workflow and image life cycle.
* Clone your system periodically to avoid lost time and lost data in the event of system drive failure.

PRESERVATION MANAGEMENT PRACTICES
Archive
* Archive capture files as soon as possible in the workflow to protect your images.
* Archive layered master files to ensure projects can be re-created in their entirety.
* Migrate to new media periodically, to prevent loss due to media failure and to increase the speed of access.
* Migrate to new file formats as necessary to stay current technologically and to avoid obsolescence.
* DNG offers a secure openly documented and forward compatible format for image archiving.

Data Validation
* Validate critical file transfers to ensure the transfer has occurred without data corruption or loss.
* Validate both primary and backup storage regularly.
* A DNG archive can be validated with a much higher level of certainty than any other image file format.
* Use write - once media as part of your archive backup plan, since it can be validated with certainty.

Memories from Christmas in PERU 2010. Barranco, Lima -PERU

This are a few editorial photos from a Christmas celebration in Barranco, Lima - PERU. It was great shooting this party from a group of the Customs from the Aduanas in PERU. They pick a kid to sponsor and made this party to celebrate Christmas with them. Every child received a present from their sponsors, and enjoy an afternoon full of laughter and entertainment.


Thank you for letting me photograph this Event to the ADUANAS OF PERU. It was a pleasure to be there.


And to all of the kids that attend, Merry Chistmas from me and Ron B. Wilson Photography...
