lots of good stuff happening this week! First, my spankin’ new website is almost here! I’m currently getting the servers switched over, so www.abbyrosephoto.com may actually be down for a day or so – but no worries, it’s just cause the new site is uploading. here’s a sneak peek:
It’s got a nice, clean interface – nothing dramatically different from my last site – but lots of lovely new images! And some old favorites have made the trip over, too 😉 I’m putting the finishing touches on the galleries, and working out some music liscensing details (gotta have my jams!) – but it’ll be live soon!
I also placed a bunch of winning images in the ISPWP winter contest. It was the only contest I had time to enter this year, so I was psyched to see so many make the top ten. These contests are always pretty subjective, but it’s always nice to get recognition from peers. Here’s just a couple of my winners –
this shot from Michele’s bridal session took 4th in the ‘bride portrait’ category: I’m actually thinking of a big metallic canvas of this for the studio
from Jen + Mike’s wedding – placed 4th in the ‘wedding party’ category (jen + mike – almost done with your album!!)
will + alyssa – 5th place in ‘all about light’. I kinda cleaned up in this category – my images placed 5th, 6th and 7th – yahoo!
anny + francisco – i just adore this image – it placed 6th in ‘reception – dancing’ 
OK, enough tooting my own horn 😉 But there’s some seriously amazing work in the winning galleries – check them out here if you feel like some wedding eye candy.
I also found out this week that i’ve been selected to recieve a ‘bride’s choice’ award from weddingwire.com. Apparently, I “demonstrate excellent quality of service, responsiveness, professionalism, value
of cost and flexibility”. Hey, i’ll take it!
weddingwire is actually a pretty cool site – kind of like a facebook for the world of wedding vendors. thanks to all my clients who have left reviews for me! If you haven’t yet and have a moment, you can do so by clicking below
Congrats! I’m so excited for your wins:) I love the dance photo where the little girl in the foreground is a side note, but a stunning moment. Way to go and I can’t wait to see the new site!
