PAWS Shows Up at Wedding {David M Deutsch, Master of Photography, Wedding Photography}

Look who made a surprise visit at Emmy and Tony's wedding. It's PAWS from the Detroit Tigers!
He danced and partied with family and guests and even posed for a few photo-ops.

What a great time and AWESOME surprise for the bride and groom :)

In case you are wondering... Paws is the one on the right. Just thought I would clear that up.

A Healthy Energy Drink

You've seen all those Monster energy drinks that claim to give you 5 hours of energy and even make you a RockStar if you drink them, right?

Well, I've found one that is WAY more healthy for you and doesn't contain harmful chemicals or obscene amounts of caffeine either.

Check out the info on the ViSalus blog for a fact sheet on GO. You'll see why it's my pre-workout drink of choice.

Photography is a business

A nice graphic with interesting information. I'm all for new people wanting to "go pro" in the industry. Just remember a professional photographer is a business person who sells a product and a needed service. There is no prestige in the starving artist syndrome.

Creating a B/W Conversion Action in Photoshop

Photoshop Actions really do help to eliminate repetitive tasks and ultimately speed up your work flow.
Here's a quick tutorial on how to record your own black and white conversion action.

Another of Emmy

I'm happy to say that classic bridal portraiture will never go out of style.
Who wouldn't want a little posing direction to look better, especially on their wedding day?

That's why I'm happy to say we still practice and teach the fine art of body positioning as it relates to photography.

For my students...
How did I light this??

Doesn't Emmy look GORGEOUS?!?!
Working on finishing the images now :)

I'm Back!

Jordan Goes Clubbing {Commerce Township Bar Mitzvah Photographer Creates Photos at the Sound Board, Motor City Casino}

What else can you do that involves going to the Motor City Casino with a camera? ~ Legally speaking, of course.
We didn't play any black jack but but the tables inside the Sound Board were smokin hot!

The venue was amazing ad MC Teddy Bear (Yep, that's what they call him) from Star Trax Entertainment rocked the house. Truth be told, he is a REALLY nice guy.

Take a look at the images. As always, you can find more on our David M Deutsch Photography Facebook page.

Radio Podcast Interview

I had the opportunity to be interviewed by Natalie Deleo of Ask Natalie First. Natalie is a long time client who I have had the priviledge of crating family memories for since 1996

Ask Natalie First - is a go to website/podcast of helpful hints and tips by local experts in different fields.

The interviews are short and sweet and offer all kinds of information to her podcast listeners.

I will be offering a special to all of her readers/listeners as soon as the my interview goes live ~ hopefully within the next week.

So stay tuned!
