before and after
recently, we've been getting more and more questions about "post processing." we then reply saying that every single image taken receives a custom "makeover." individual images go through a rigorous change in temperature color, exposure, shadow, brightness, contrast, saturation and curve. from there, we're able to transform "nice photos" into "wow photos!"
but it's really hard to visualize what we're talking about. so... just look at the examples below.

our albums - straight from italy
we love our album production company, a top-of-the-line, award winning, international wedding album company, based in italy. here's some information regarding the types of album products we offer:
- primary albums - in either 9.5" x 13" (shown below) or 8" x 12." these are custom-designed and hand-bound. cover options include: metallic (featured below), "crystal glance" (acrylic cover with metallic photo insert), classic leather (die-cut, embossed, "crystal glance" insert window), leatherette, and silk
- parent albums - in either 8" x12" (shown below) or 6" x 8." these are "clones" of the primary album, hardbound with a personalized dust jacket
- pocketbook albums - 4" x 5" replicas of the primary album, softbound. super cute!

below is a "group photo" of our album offerings
from top to bottom: opened pocket book, four pocket books, two 8" x 12" parent albums, super cool metallic 9.5" x 13" primary album and yes, a briefcase. it keeps your primary album safe and sound.
this is the very modern 9.5 x 13" "metallic" primary album standing tall in its briefcase. by metallic, we mean it has a metal cover with metallic pages. we included a generic CD in the images for size reference. seriously, pictures don't do it justice! gotta see it in person to get the full effect of its awesomeness...
below are hardbound parent albums. most couples order two of these... one for each side of the family. all of the graphi albums (no matter what size) open flat like so.
these are 4 x 5" pocketbook albums, which can be ordered in sets of multiple copies. why order so many? these are great for giving to bridesmaids/groomsmen, grandparents, sponsors, friends, relatives, out-of-town guests, etc. they make the coolest gifts!
sample album spreads
very exciting times... we've sent out another set of files to be printed for our album samples. this time with another vendor. can't wait to hold the actual album in hand and show off to potential brides. = )
congrats to jen and ryan for making the front "metallic" cover. yes... i said metallic. sweet!!!
below are some spreads (an open book showing 2 pages) that will be printed (minus the black border).

about the ed pingol photography team
this is the section where most photographers would write about their history and why they became photographers... maybe even some of their philosophy to talk about how much they love photography. but i think i'll skip all that and just simply tell you that we really like artsy fun photography. and luckily enough, our clients do too... so if you like to have fun, please read on.
ed pingol photography is a happy accident.
we began as a husband-and-wife team consisting of me and my wife, monica, and have grown to a cooperative of several very talented photographers. = ) we love having fun, goofing around, getting to know our clients and honestly portray who and how they really are in pictures. though i love having fun and goofing around, when it comes to getting some kick-butt images, we REALLY don't mess around. feel free to check out our personal blog to stalk, errr... i mean, get to know us better. ; )
another thing you might not want to know (but if you've read this much, why stop) about us is we love sushi! we love lola, our weiner dog, who likes to come along during our family photo sessions and e-sessions.
oh, and make sure you check out the FAQ because there's A LOT OF INFORMATION in that little section.

this is my brother and fellow photographer, hamilton (a.k.a. jeff) and i phooning. sounds weird, i know... but it's SO much fun.
hamiton is an awesome lighting assistant and photographer during shoots... especially when i'm in a climbing mood.
monica helping out the lovely jasmine and her hubby, jerome.
monica's going to kill me by putting this up (sorry love) it's part of the process... if you don't want these type of images up on the net, don't make funny faces. = )
i tend to shoot monica quite a bit to test out exposures... she loves it! just look at that smile. = )
yes, more monica.
this picture below is me on my 28th birthday celebrating with immediate family - i love pyramid beers and cupcakes, uhhh... but not at the same time. i also have a lot of happy wrinkles.

Ed/Monica,
These pictures are amazing. I can't wait to see the rest of them. So, we didn't get a chance to capture Chayenne's umbilical cord. The opportunity to have someone as creative and talented as the both of you photograph my newborn made up for it 10 fold.
I love the way that you guys were able to capture my babies in their environment and not at a studio where it's cold and unfamiliar. Being able to take photograph at home were my kids are comfortable made such a big difference and made the pictures much more special.
Another thing that I love about you guys is that you are both so down to earth and easy to get along with. This made such a big difference to my older daughter. Now every time we take pictures, she says "Macaroni" and laughs.
I'm defiantly going to book you guys when Cornell and I have our 3rd baby. I will be recommending you to all my friends and family!!!!
Thanks a bunch!!!!!

Holy Cow - these are outstanding. I'm really digging that mixture of HDR into the images. I've been playing around with that for a while now... but the time it takes on each one... def. only meant for special images. Keep it up dood! you rock star you.

about the ed pingol photography team
this is the section where most photographers would write about their history and why they became photographers... maybe even some of their philosophy to talk about how much they love photography. but i think i'll skip all that and just simply tell you that we really like artsy fun photography. and luckily enough, our clients do too... so if you like to have fun, please read on.
ed pingol photography is a happy accident.
we began as a husband-and-wife team consisting of me and my wife, monica, and have grown to a cooperative of several very talented photographers. = ) we love having fun, goofing around, getting to know our clients and honestly portray who and how they really are in pictures. though i love having fun and goofing around, when it comes to getting some kick-butt images, we REALLY don't mess around. feel free to check out our personal blog to stalk, errr... i mean, get to know us better. ; )
another thing you might not want to know (but if you've read this much, why stop) about us is we love sushi! we love lola, our weiner dog, who likes to come along during our family photo sessions and e-sessions.
oh, and make sure you check out the FAQ because there's A LOT OF INFORMATION in that little section.

this is my brother and fellow photographer, hamilton (a.k.a. jeff) and i phooning. sounds weird, i know... but it's SO much fun.
hamiton is an awesome lighting assistant and photographer during shoots... especially when i'm in a climbing mood.
monica helping out the lovely jasmine and her hubby, jerome.
monica's going to kill me by putting this up (sorry love) it's part of the process... if you don't want these type of images up on the net, don't make funny faces. = )
i tend to shoot monica quite a bit to test out exposures... she loves it! just look at that smile. = )
yes, more monica.
this picture below is me on my 28th birthday celebrating with immediate family - i love pyramid beers and cupcakes, uhhh... but not at the same time. i also have a lot of happy wrinkles.

Ed/Monica,
These pictures are amazing. I can't wait to see the rest of them. So, we didn't get a chance to capture Chayenne's umbilical cord. The opportunity to have someone as creative and talented as the both of you photograph my newborn made up for it 10 fold.
I love the way that you guys were able to capture my babies in their environment and not at a studio where it's cold and unfamiliar. Being able to take photograph at home were my kids are comfortable made such a big difference and made the pictures much more special.
Another thing that I love about you guys is that you are both so down to earth and easy to get along with. This made such a big difference to my older daughter. Now every time we take pictures, she says "Macaroni" and laughs.
I'm defiantly going to book you guys when Cornell and I have our 3rd baby. I will be recommending you to all my friends and family!!!!
Thanks a bunch!!!!!

Holy Cow - these are outstanding. I'm really digging that mixture of HDR into the images. I've been playing around with that for a while now... but the time it takes on each one... def. only meant for special images. Keep it up dood! you rock star you.
