Hello Everyone,

My online store with galleries will be down for the next 24-48 hours as I update to a newer and better service. I am very excited about this new store and know it will make viewing and ordering much easier with features that let you put images into a favorites folder, compare images with others, and even e-mail an image to a friend direct from my store!

Please be patient during this time and I will have it up and ready as soon as possible!

My Best Wishes,
Michael

Yesterday I announced the release of the new Escaleraphotography.com and the response has been incredible! I have received wonderful e-mails and phone calls from past clients, current clients, possible future clients, and other photographers!

Thank you so much to everyone for your overwhelming support. It really has meant so much to me and I am truly grateful.

There are more exciting things to come in the near future so stay tuned for more!

My love and best wishes,
Michael

You are getting a first glimpse of the new Michael Escalera Photography logo (in the banner above) and the new blog! I am SO EXCITED about this release and am thrilled with the entire look. My new website should be released in about a week, but I’ll definitely post something about that as well.

I wanted my logo to look modern, fresh, unique and represent the different type of vision that I bring to my photography. I think it does exactly that!

As always, this blog would not look this incredible without the brains of my incredible web guru Ben! He has put in so much time putting up with me that I might just take him to BW’s! (Any excuse will do.)

I received an e-mail this morning from the founder of the Wedding Photojournalists Association saying that I have been accepted for membership!

Their website states:

“WPJA Wedding Photographers are an Elite Group. The Wedding Photojournalist Association is a highly screened, critical organization. Less than 5% of wedding photographers out there qualify for membership.

Membership in the WPJA depends entirely on photographers meeting our high standards for inclusion. One CANNOT simply pay his/her way into the WPJA. ”

You can find out more about WPJA by visiting their website!

I have been thinking a LOT about marketing for the past few months and the thoughts are all finally coming together!

In April 2006 I will be releasing the new logo, blog, and website for Michael Escalera Photography. There has been so much thought and preperation for this and I am SO excited!

Along with the new releases I will also be revealing a new pricing structure which will incorporate several collections (aka “packages”) to choose from and an awesome new album company that I am working with.

Stay tuned over the next several weeks for the exciting new look of Michael Escalera Photography!
