We just returned from a ‘funtastic’ Mexican cruise with 10 other photographers from the Texas School of Photography. What a blast.. and talk about RELAXATION!!! Tropical paradise beaches… almost like a home away from home
We had so much fun with the group… and even squeezed in a lighting/ photo session on the beach. Here are a few shots in Honduras.
Next, we are off to Costa Maya.
We had a fun photo session on the beach with Doug box and his wife LaVelda as we worked on our lighting. These are mostly straight out of camera shots.
Doug Box and his wife LaVelda modeling. Working with lighting...
Normally I’d be photoshopping all the debris away… this is straight out of camera.
Now we sail to Cozumel and a beautiful paradise resort.
Swim to the bar for your drinks... what a life.
As we were leaving… a wedding was taking place on the beach, photo above.
The melding of two passions- music and photography
I majored in music education at the University of Miami School of Music. I taught general music in private and public schools for over 25 years. My husband and I own a full-service music store, Music Tech Studios that has 30 teachers, instructing over 600 students private music lessons. Now how does that apply to my passion for photography now??
There are so many similarities between photography and music…. and math actually is a part of the equation for both. I ran across a wonderful article by David Hobby who authors the photography/lighting blog, www.strobist.com. He said it better than I could ever explain it… so I will link you to his article on “Five Things Music Can Teach Us About Lighting” . I have learned a lot about off-camera lighting from reading David’s Strobist articles as he shares in detail his photography and lighting experiences. But this article touched on both my passions… music and photography.
It is interesting how many photographers have a music background. I feel my background in music has helped me to see each image like a beautifully tuned orchestra, with the light bringing out the emotions and drama of each subject in the photo, the music from the orchestra or band bring out the emotions of the listener.
The Five points that David brought out in his article are:
1. Music is Part Art and Part Science
2. Music is All About the Ensemble
3. Music Has Color and Feel
4. Music Can Alter the Way We Interact
5. Music Should Be Organic
If you have an interest in music or photography, or both, take a minute and check out David Hobby’s Strobist article…. it’s a GREAT read.

THE METALLIC FLOAT WRAP
It’s Here.. and they are stunning!
Want a different, contemporary look to your prints? Order a beautiful Metallic Float Wrap for your walls! They appear to float right off the walls via a block attached to the back of the print so it has a space between the print and the walls. It is a beautiful combination of the canvas gallery wrap and a print… and the best part is it is READY to hang… no frames needed.
Here is a sample of the winning Romance Wedding Contest and their choice of print for the Float Wrap prize. The colors really pop, and the metallic wall decoration really has that glow to it. Of course, a web-size file doesn’t do it justice… ya have to see it in person… on YOUR WALL!
the float wrap does exactly that .. the print wraps around a cushioned board and ‘floats’ off the wall….
… and the back wood block hanging device for the ‘float’ effect
Another new product!!!

Each person needs to vote and enter their own names and email addresses, and the votes will count, also at the same IP at work.
Jeff Reeves - I vote #4 Krista and Adam
cynthia seibold - #3 Kandy and Andy. It's beauty and artistry is very unique.
Robert - Team #1 Go Steven and Bonnie
Samantha - #1 is the Best Go Uncle Steven and Aunt Bonnie!

Sarah - What about household votes? My mother, brother, sister, etc. all voted from our shared household computer with the same IP address... How is that not fair voting? That is still 1 vote per person. I think that a valid email was reasonable. Not to mention other families and couples using the same computer to cast their votes for various couples. That just doesn't seem reasonable to me.
Diane Schafer - Yes, all of your household votes were counted from the same family when each one had a different email. Thanks for voting!
Diane Schafer - VOTING FOR YOUR FAVORITE WEDDING ROMANCE COUPLE IS NOW CLOSED!!
I WANT TO THANK EVERYONE WHO TOOK THE TIME TO VOTE FOR THEIR FAVORITE ROMANCE IMAGE AND SUPPORT THEIR FAVORITE COUPLE!! ALL THE COUPLES ARE 'WINNERS' AND THEY ALL HAD GORGEOUS WEDDINGS AND AMAZING MEMORIES TO SHARE THROUGH THEIR PHOTOGRAPHS FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIVES TOGETHER! IT WAS MY HONOR AND PLEASURE TO PHOTOGRAPH THEIR WEDDING AND BE A PART OF THIS SPECIAL TIME IN THEIR LIVES AS THEY BECAME HUSBAND AND WIFE.
ALL THE COUPLES WILL BE RECEIVING A SPECIAL WEDDING PRINT OF THEIR CHOICE FROM DIANE SCHAFER PHOTOGRAPHY FOR ALL THEIR EFFORT IN THE FUN SPIRIT OF THE CONTEST AND ASKING THEIR FAMILY AND FRIENDS TO VOTE. THANKS AGAIN FOR VOTING.
STAY TUNED FOR THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE WINNING COUPLE!!

I had the privilege of photographing an adorable newborn, Ava. She had so many precious expressions and was so good during her first photo shoot. Just a few months ago I shot mom and dad during a maternity shoot and now here she is all pink and rosy. She even sported her dads favorite baseball team.. never too early to encourage a new young fan. Thanks for a fun time sharing a special moment with Ava.

I had a great time photographing a beautiful family I recently met through church. Their son and daughter and their spouses were down for the Christmas holiday and it was a perfect time to catch some South Florida atmosphere by the Dania Beach pier… even with a nice cool breeze in the air. They had a great sense of humor and made it a fun photo shoot, and their son, Bryan made a great comment at the end, “That wasn’t ANYTHING like a JC Penny photo session, that was fun!” And we all had a good laugh. I was glad I could share in a wonderful EXPERIENCE with them as they shared a time together and capturing some family memories. It’s all about the experience and time shared with families. Also, my thanks to Kellie for helping me with the lighting.
