AL BRODSKY PHOTOGRAPHY - October-November 2008

October - November, 2008

I created about 20 designs using images from the wedding of Cathy and Adam., and the design at the very top left, with the cake in the background, became one of the two, 11x13 proof book covers.

All total, this 4.5 hour event (one half hour of overtime requested) resulted in 522 images!
I personally take time to custom edit, crop, color correct, complete minor retouching, selectively sharpen every image, along with creating about 20 designs and two proof book cover designs.

Hi Al,
Just wanted to let you know I received the proof books today, and they are wonderful ......
Thanks again!
Cathy ~live, laugh, love~

This event was scheduled as a 60th birthday party for Dick, but the guests were surprised and overwhlemed when they learned it was also to be Gerri and Dick's long awaited, wedding day. I'm sure I have never before photographed a surprise wedding, but it's always an honor to be chosen to capture the history of some of life's most important moments.

"Al, I couldn't resist looking at the photos. Thought I'd make it through the day until I got home, but I didn't. You have done an amazing job, as usual. You captured exactly the moments I envisioned +. I can't wait for Dick to see these and we will notify all of our guests of the site. Thank you again and again! Talk to you soon! Gerri " (via e-mail)

Farmers Insurance hired me to photograph Sandra for the Farmers Insurance Magazine, highlighting Sandra's fine accomplishments. Along with photographing Sandra alone, I also photographed her staff indivdually and as a group, as shown on the left, and I photographed Sandra as casully dressed, above.

The two images on the left are the covers of the proof book which is divided into two equal, separate sections, at 11x13 in size and feature 480 images as taken in a Bar Mitzvah special, split, 5 hour photographic coverage.

The stain glass windows at the synagogue provided colorful and appropriate background for many of the about 20 designs created from the images taken. The piano keys were part of the banquet hall decoration, incorporating one of Jacob's personal passions in his young life to the theme of the party.
