New Hobby - Custom Mat Boards

VenturaPhoto | Personal, Preparación | Friday, November 24th, 2006

I have a new hobby. I make custom mat boards. At first, I wanted to hang a few of my personal pictures on the wall. I thought the most economical way of hanging pictures would be the mat boards. Quickly I discovered that custom mat boards are expensive.

I thought “I can cut those on my own”. So, I bought mat board cutter, T-Square, spray glues (x3), and a lot of different boards. I even bought a table and a shelving unit just to dedicate to mat board cutting.

I don’t usually get excited on anything. But I when I find something I like, I tend to get obsessed. I was cutting mat boards all night. I went to sleep around 6am this morning. I had a lot of fun.

I will be adding custom mat board to my wedding package.
Now I can make a fancy signing board for the wedding.

PS. Happy Thanksgiving~!

Photography Ritual - Coffee

VenturaPhoto | Mi Rituales Boda, Personal, conversacion (Fotografia) | Wednesday, November 15th, 2006

One of my photography rituals is coffee..

I always drink coffee when I do any kind of work related to photography. I bring coffee when I meet wedding clients. I drink coffee in the car when I drive to the wedding site. I drink coffee when I go to the photo lab. I drink coffee when I put wedding albums together or cut mat boards.

Besides that, I almost never drink coffee.

I am a tea drinker. I have a dozen or so different kinds of tea at work. But, I appreciate good coffee. I have several different kinds of coffee. Some are vacuum packed and frozen for long term storage.

Photography Ritual

Starbucks is always good, Krispi Kreme's Smooth Blend is good.
Pete's coffee and the rest fancy ones are all good.
Sometimes I even enjoy flavored coffees (Vanilla, butterscotch toffee)

I'm not a big fan of cheap coffee.

Favorite Wedding Song - Hava Nagila

VenturaPhoto | Personal, conversacion (Fotografia) | Tuesday, November 14th, 2006

Hava Nagila is my favorite wedding song/music.
I do more Jewish weddings in Los Angeles County than in Ventura County.
I think Jewish weddings are very sexy and cute.
They wrap the bride and groom in a blanket (sorry, I don’t know the proper term).
They tie their hands together.

Jewish wedding is very fun… the dance… the blessing…
I love it when they sing Hava Nagila.

I know the lyrics to Hava Nagila by heart.
I have different versions of Hava Nagila in MP3.
I practiced that song so many times.
I can play guitar and sing.
At my next Jewish wedding, if something happens to the singer, I can grab the mic and sing Hava Nagila.  (I am not kidding)

Hava Nagila is my favorite wedding song.
Here’s the lyric.

————————————————————-

Hava nagila,
Hava nagila,
Hava nagila,
Ve’ Nismecha.

Hava nagila,
Hava nagila,
Hava nagila,
Ve’ Nismecha.

Hava neranena,
Hava neranena,
Hava neranena,
Ve’ Nismecha.

Hava neranena,
Hava neranena,
Hava neranena,
Ve’ Nismecha.

Uru, Uru achim,
Uru achim belev sameach,
Uru achim belev sameach,
Uru achim belev sameach,
Uru achim
Uru achim
Belev sameach.

(Repeat)
