Meet the iPad

meirvin — Thu, 28 Jan 2010 18:07:14 +0000

Interesting read from fellow Photographer Scott Bourne which can be found at :

“As expected, the usual cast of Windows fanboys, link-baiters, Apple haters, etc., jumped up screaming about all the things the iPad WON’T do. They talked about all the features it DIDN’T have. And that’s exactly the wrong approach. People NEVER, EVER buy anything because of what it WON’T do – they buy because of what it WILL do. They don’t buy it because of what it DOESN’T HAVE – they buy it because of what it DOES have. If the iPad spit gold bars at its owners and cured cancers, then there’d still be the contingent of haters who would bash it. Don’t let that detour you from checking it out. “

SnapSnapz…Best Booth at Bridal Show

meirvin — Mon, 11 Jan 2010 15:47:33 +0000

I just got back from a Brides of Texas Bridal show today at Billy Bobs in Fort Worth where brides voted my bridal booth best of the show due to the great fun they had using the SnapzSnapz photo booth. The number one comment was how great ”Live View” was over the competition (the ability to see what the camera sees before the picuture is taken).

Got to say thanks to Mary Galloway from Brides of Texas for the hard work she put into the bridal event.

As usual all that entered made some great creative images, here are a few.

And the rest here

Reverse Trick or Treat

meirvin — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 19:36:16 +0000

“I grew up in a college town, and one Halloween our doorbell rang and we opened the door expecting to see trickortreaters—but what was in front of our open door—was another door! Like, a full-on wooden door, that had a sign that said “Please knock.” So we did, and the door swung open to reveal a bunch of college dudes dressed as really old grandmothers, curlers in their hair, etc, who proceeded to coo over our “costumes” and tell us we were “such cute trick or treaters!” One even pinched my cheek. Then THEY gave US candy, closed their door, picked it up and walked to the next house.

A Country Affair

meirvin — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 20:02:46 +0000

I like me some fried chicken and that’s just what I had a Babes in Granbury Tx after the bridal session for Amber. Then about a month later I got to go back for Amber and Scott’s great wedding under the big top tents. Now the pressure was on since this wedding was for the daughter of wedding coordinator extraordinaire Peggy Villagomez of Dream come True Weddings. Not wanting to fuss about on the big day Peggy brought in Lucia Bitnar of Foster Blue & Company took care of all the days details.

Here are a few finished images from the day.
