Magic "Tweet-Up"

It has been a while since the last blog, not that I haven't had a lot going on, just slow to update the blog.


So anyways, we were finally heading down to Orlando for our long awaited vacation. While we were there there was a little event planned, which according to google is called a "tweet-up". This was an event where I got to meet up with a lot of the people I have talked to on twitter along with a few players from the Orlando Magic showing up. Everything went great, it was set up at NBA city which is located at the Universal Studios City walk in Orlando. We had the top floor (for anyone who has been there before) and a few of the newest members of the Orlando Magic came as well, Quentin Richardson, Chris Duhon and Daniel Orton. They were all great, taking pics and hanging out with all of us, they even went downstairs to wish a happy birthday to a girl that was celebrating her birthday there with her friends/family.


Here are a few pics from the event, met some great people and had a great time, cant wait to get back to Orlando again soon!

In Las Vegas with the Quiet Storm foundation

It has been a while since the last blog, yes I've been slacking with the updates but I will try to do better.


A few weeks ago I was invited out to Las Vegas for another Quiet Storm Foundation event, those of you who do not know about the foundation please click here to find out more, its a great organization run by C.J. Watson and his family. This event was their annual back to school extravaganza, there was a lot of great entertainment for the kids, C.J. signed autographs and met with some of his fans, the UNLV cheerleaders stopped by as well. It was a great day with a big turnout. 


This also happened to be my first trip to Vegas, I wasn't there for long but in the little time I was there the Watson family did their best to show me as much as they could. 


C.J. also did a quick interview for eastbay/solecollector which you can read here.


Here are a few photos from the day, including one of the first pics you will see of C.J. in a Bulls jersey since he was traded from the Warriors this summer. Be sure to watch out for C.J. this year, he is now with a great young team that will definitely utilize his talents this season, his official website will be coming soon, I will make sure to blog when it is up and running, until then you can follow C.J. on twitter here or become a fan on facebook here and definitely become a fan of the Quiet Storm foundation on facebook as well here.


C.J. has a few contests coming up as well so check out all his pages for more information.

Quiet Storm Hoops for Hope Tennessee event

Well it has been a while since the last blog post but there has been a lot going on so I will slowly but surely catch everyone up. So first we will start off with the Hoops for Hope Quiet Storm Foundation event in Tennessee with C.J. Watson. For those who don't know who C.J. is now you will soon enough, he is currently playing for the Golden State Warriors. Now the foundation was started by C.J. and his family who are all great people. If you are near any Quiet Storm events I definitely suggest you check it out! This event consisted of 2 basketball day camps for the kids, a performance by Dean "HB" Vitale and also the ToeTag Monologues, those who are unaware of the ToeTag Monologues I highly suggest you check them out, its a great show with a great message to it!

The day flew by and was a great time for everyone, I know we enjoyed ourselves and look forward to doing more work with the foundation. Above are a few pics from the day or C.J. with the kids and the performances.

Hoops for Hope Las Vegas with C.J. Watson

Recently I have been helping out with the Quiet Storm Foundation, which is is C.J. Watson's foundation, if you don't know who C.J. is yet do your homework as he is an up and coming PG in the NBA. I am doing a lot with the foundation so you will see more blogs to come with other events and information so stay tuned for that!

Rashard Lewis Playoff T-Shirts

Well for those of you who don't know I am a huge Orlando Magic fan and through my Twitter obsession I  have had the honor of doing some work for Rashard Lewis. You may have seen some of the Twitter backgrounds in the past that I have done for him but recently I was able to help out his friends at RL9 Sports & Marketing with some T-Shirt designs as you can see above. The money raised from the T-Shirt sales will be used for a Youth Basketball camp that Rashard will be involved with this summer, so each shirt you buy is for a good cause and if you buy all 3, or just spend $75 you will get a Rashard Lewis autograph for free!
So go to RL9sports.bigcartel.com or just click HERE and order your shirts today and support the Magic as they start the playoffs this Sunday!
Also if you are on Twitter and you are a Magic fan, contact me on Twitter for some playoff backgrounds for your page!

Aaron Brooks Foundation

So as you all know I have been busy on Twitter, I have made some great connections on there with some great people and have been working with some of them on things other than their page design. I am now going to start to show a few things I have done so far, there will be more coming as I am working on a lot right now!

Well the first item I will share is the Aaron Brooks Foundation logo, if you don't know who Aaron Brooks is then you obviously don't follow the NBA at all, well click on his name/link to find out more about the Houston Rockets PG... should have been an All Star this year too! I have been helping his foundation out with some design work besides the logo, maybe I will share some other work later on, but as you know I have been bad with the blogging so I need to spread them out.

For now be sure to check out the Aaron Brooks Foundation by clicking the link, become a sponsor, help out wherever you can!

Well just checking in for now, stay tuned for more posts coming... and don't forget if you need a design for anything or need photography for anything please contact us! Wedding season is right around the corner so contact us now to guarantee your day is available!

Barbara and Morris' Wedding at the Woodwinds 12-4-09

On Friday December 4th, 2009 we were honored to shoot Barbara and Morris' wedding at the Woodwinds in Branford, CT. I personally have never been to the Woodwinds but I can say I can't wait to be back, its a great location with some great scenery indoors and outdoors for photos! Since the wedding was at night and it was cold out we were a little limited outdoors but still got a few great shots! We were previously warned about Morris' closing his eyes for the camera and we were able to defeat him this time! It was a great night and they were great to work with, congratulations again!
