Anyway… this week was more busy – going places, meeting friends, attending parties.

I made new set of templates for Lightroom

20 Blog Boards

All templates are sized 850px wide,
at 72dpi for your blog and has low sharpening settings (you can easily turn that off if you don’t need it)

Description:

- templates sized at 850px wide (@ 72dpi) make it easy and fast to create collages for your blogs, showing images from recent weddings, portrait sessions and travels
- different designs that fit up to 9 images per page

I personally use them ALL the time for my blogs. It is so much easier and faster to make a collage, and post it online

I’m a little behind on posting images from my project 365.
That week was hard. I was feeling blue, overwhelmed and just… so-oooo heavy.
Most of the time lack of inspiration and motivation.
I think it has something to do with the ending of the online class I was teaching (like all the creative juices were sucked out) and also the upcoming birthday of mine.
I think so many people start feeling *uneasy and low a month before their birthday. Maybe it has something to do with energy and the ending of one cycle and beginning of another?

Do you feel that way too?

California Poppy

Cheerful and soft. They are everywhere.

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter!
we’ve had a fabulous egg hung, Easter bunny was so generous … .

I wish he brought some pre-paid dental insurance with all those candy eggs.

Even though it’s vacations (for me), I still need to work on programming, catching up with online classes, my blogs, forums and games. I even don’t have time to “call back” and arrange play dates…

tired?

Rain, storms, photography assignemtns and websites, forums and communications.

+ the signs from the universe, or … I don’t know… something from “out there”

+ I definitely need someone to answer my questions about college studies, certificate programs, give me a sense of stability, or just discourage me all together. forever.

Past weeks have been filled with tons of computer work, communications, updates, installations, and school projects.

Somehow some days feel like and empty wrapper… like nothing really happened. But then I look back and realize how many interesting events were in those days.

I think I need to “be in a moment” more often.

March 8 – March 21 in pictures:

March 15 – I went to the Asian Art’s Museum with the friend.

Portrait session with J. | UC Berkeley Portrait Photography

HalinaV — Wed, 21 Mar 2012 05:15:38 +0000

I am so happy that all my clients are nice and easy to photograph.

J. is a sparkle. If I had to describe her in two words – it would be shine and warmth.
She is a beautiful person, very-very warm and approachable, and it was very easy to work with her.

I was smiling for few hours after our photography session on UC Berkeley campus.
I ♥ to meet people who glow with positive energy, and share this warmth with everybody.

Here are few pictures from our session.
