One thing to consider when you are in the selection process for the colors is to remember that absolutely everything from the invitations , all the way to the bridesmaid dresses need to match accordingly with the wedding theme, by doing this you are already dictating the mood and environment of your <a href="http://www.alexisphotoandvideo.com">wedding</a>.<br />First to establish is if is going to be an outdoor or indoor wedding. For outdoor weddings is recommended to use the colors of the seasons.<br />Spring: Since spring is the season of a new life when flowers blooms, cool refreshing breeze is on the air, and the sun is warming up the day it will be best to use Bright colors, or a fresh combination of colors, (Green, Red, Yellow, Orange). These colors are most related to the spring season creating a very refreshing, relaxing environment on your wedding.<br />Summer: The summer is associated with very hot temperatures, sunny days and it will not be a mistake to use, hot or energetic colors. One example of a hot color is red, when the red color is the one dominating the entire decoration will give a sense of a very hot day and it can symbolize the feelings about your groom. An energetic combination of colors are: purple, pink, and red, this color combination will remind your guest about all the energy a summer day is pack with and your wedding have plenty of energy in it.<br />Autumn : This particular season is the most memorable of all since, the colors on the landscape drastically change, the sunsets are redder, the foliage of the tree change of color in preparation for the winter ahead. Not surprisingly the color for autumn are warm a combination of red, orange, and yellow.<br />Winter: Winter is associated with cold weather, snow, short days, and festivities. The color scheme for a winter wedding can be a little tricky since you can go with a cool combination such as turquoise blue, and verdant green, other color options are those related to festivities such as red and green.<br />For indoors wedding will be all about setting the mood of your wedding, or by picking your favorite color.<br />Different moods can vary from: Romantic, Friendly, Welcoming, elegant, energetic, or classy. Depending on the mood you wish to reflect for your guest, are going to be the color combination you will select.<br />Romantic: Romantic mood can be any combination involving pink, red, and purple it may remind you about those sugary candy hearts given to you by your fiance on that Valentine day years ago when you first met.<br />Welcoming colors are those who invite people in and encourage them to stay, yellow, brown, and orange are very pleasant colors who invite your guest to come in and never leave. This is also a friendly combination. Can you relate friendly and welcoming? They are compliment of each other, a welcoming person is a friendly one.<br />Or you can simply use your favorite color: with your favorite color you are telling your guest what type of personality you posses.<br />Red: The red color is the most vibrant color in the color scheme. This color reflect, excitement, speed, power, passion, danger, and joy it give a warm sensation to the people.<br />Yellow: The yellow color is considered to be a happy color, do you think is a coincidence that a happy face is painted most of the time in yellow? Symbolize Joy, warmth, optimism, wealth.<br />Orange: A mixture of yellow and red, it poses some mix characteristic of both colors; friendly, outgoing, cheerful and adventurous. Is very easy on the eyes and very close related to the autumn season. The color of the pumpkins, and the dry leaf of a tree on the fall season.<br />Green: When you use a soft pale green it is relaxing, and easy to the eye. Darker tones of green are associated with stability and growth and give the impression of higher status and success. Is a common color to use for spring weddings since it is associated with the deep green in the landscape.<br />Blue: The blue is the favorite of the color especially among men. The color blue is an uplifting, positive and peaceful color representing loyalty, trustworthiness, fidelity, and integrity.<br />Purple: is associated with royalty and higher status, usually combined with yellow.<br />Pink: is considered a feminine color, romantic, related to nurturing and compassion.<br />Brown: Warm, comforting, associated with the earth.<br />By combining the colors you can send a message to your guest of how your wedding will be. You can use different combinations of color however on weddings is most usual to use the complimentary scheme of color, instead of the monochromatic scheme, or the clash scheme. A complementary scheme is a color combination of any two colors opposite on the color wheel.<br />Let your wedding transmit the exact message you want to convey to your guest with the colors you choose for it.</div><div>For all your wedding Photography and Videography services visit <a href="http://www.alexisphotoandvideo.com">www.alexisphotoandvideo.com</a> .</div></div>alexisphotoandvideohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00956358441858304317noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3959897435696872395.post-20136482902777206952011-04-14T14:24:00.000-07:002011-04-14T14:32:03.767-07:00Design ExplorationMy design exploration is about a website for T-Mobile called <a href="http://www.chuckville.com/">Chuckville</a>, Is all about funny things about Chuck Norris, you walk around his town collecting a series of data about the martial art actor, you can also have a friendly fight with him in his own chuck-lin at the beginning I though that it was impossible to defeat Chuck but eventually I catch up with the game and I defeat him twice but it's not easy at all.

I find interesting how the public visualize the job of professional videographers. While some people believe that having uncle John ,or aunt Jane to record their event is all they need to capture the essence of the day, a professional videographer offer a better product, since the professionals have an understanding about lighting, audio, focus and editing. To give a better example, when your uncle John record your event such as a wedding he probably only know to use the camera only in automatic, while a professional adjust the white balance and the Iris of the lens in accordance with the lighting condition of the place, the professional focus on what is happening while uncle John is jumping back and forth with the camera, the professional give you a DVD or Blue Ray with a menu in were you can choose to select a scene, special features, maybe an introductory video with music that set the mood for what was happening at that particular moment, while uncle John just burn a DVD straight from what he recorded on the camera "including bloopers", professionals edit their job so it look flawless. <br />If you think that having a member of your family to record a special event will be satisfactory for you by all means please do that, not only will save you money, but you will feel more comfortable knowing the person who is recording, but in the other side, if you want a flawless product with great visual effects, and a professional presentation, then you will be better off with a videographer with professional training in the area.<br /><br />This Article is brought to you by:<br /><a href="http://www.alexisphotoandvideo.com">Alexis Photography & Video Service</a><br />Capturing Moments...Creating Memoriesalexisphotoandvideohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00956358441858304317noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3959897435696872395.post-19353939098203652482010-03-09T07:10:00.000-08:002010-03-09T07:38:24.725-08:00I have a DVD with Pictures from my photographer, is this means that I have print rights?Throughout my career I found myself with clients which solely request a DVD or CD with pictures, thinking that by having a media with pictures they will be able to print as many copies of the pictures as they want. There is a misconception about the printing rights of the pictures taken by a professional photographer, most professionals will agree to work and provide only the DVD, however print ordering is one of the most important things in where a photography business survive today. Clients believe that by having a DVD or CD with pictures will give them the right to go to any photo developing center and print as many pictures they want, and so it begin the deception of the client when he or she finds out that the pictures are solely for computer use, when they call the photographer they learn that they still have to buy the print from him or her.<br />The next question is how you cannot print your own pictures? Well, the answer is simple, when you use a professional photographer he or she retain the intellectual right of the pictures, and thanks to Adobe software they can protect their rights by different means such as: lowering the resolution of the image in such a way that it looks good on a computer monitor but if you try to print it will pix elate the image making it look bad, the other way is by putting all the pictures in Adobe flash presentation which looks like a web gallery; if you ever seen a photographer website you will know how a web gallery looks, Flash is a computer software that is actually available in most computers today like Acrobat reader which enable the user to read a document in a Portable Data File format (PDF), and the last one is getting the pictures in a PDF file. All this applications makes the pictures available to see in a computer screen, however it will not let you make prints and if so the prints will be showing low resolution and quality.<br />If you really want to print the pictures on the CD or DVD you will have to be very specific to the photographer about it, most photographer will not have a problem in give you the printing rights of the pictures on the media of your choice, but since they are giving away one of the things that produce money for their business expect to pay more for the work of the photographer.<br />The best way to overcome this is by being honest with the photographer, tell them your intentions of having the CD or DVD with pictures because you want to be able to print pictures on the near future since you don't have the resources available at the moment to purchase any package offered by the photographer, most of us will understand and we are more than willing to negotiate and work something which can benefit both parts, and no one will fill cheated at the end.<br /><br />This article is presented to you by:<br /><span style="color:#990000;"><strong><a href="http://www.alexisphotoandvideo/">Alexis Photography & Video Service</a></strong></span><br /><em>Capturing Moments...
