Savannah Georgia — Photoshoot — Photo Art

Yesterday was just fun!!! Me and 3 other photog friends spent the morning shooting one gorgeous sunrise on Tybee Island then we walked through downtown Savannah and concluded the day with a night shoot under the wonderful Talmadge Memorial Bridge which crosses the Savannah River from Savannah, GA to South Carolina.

I personally had a blast….It was so refreshing to just shoot for the love of shooting…..

Here are a few of the shots…..

This image looks fake but it’s the real deal!!!

Live Events – Northwest Christian Church

Every now and then I get the opportunity to document a live event….I have always loved the challenge that it brings to me….Northwest Christian Church contacted me about helping them document their Sunday services…..They are in the process of developing a new website and wanted a fresh new look…..That’s were I came in…..We chatted via email and over the phone about a few concepts then I attended their weekend service and documented all the wonderful things God is doing in their midst…..

Here are a few of my personal favorites from the shoot a few months ago……

A little motion trick:)

I loved the baptisms!!!!!!

A view from the rafters:)

One thing that really caught my eye was the diversity of the church…..I loved it…..

One of my favorites…….

Tony McCollum - Love all these shots, bro. Great work.

It’s Snowing Again!!!

Yeah for my kidos!!!! They are loving a little snow this year!!! Fun Times!!

New Site-New Blog-New Portfolio-New Logo

It’s all new!!!! I have been working on updating my look for a few months now….This process has taken me forever because I have done 90% of it myself….All the new layouts…..I am just getting started with some major changes……I have so many more ideas for my brides that are gonna set me apart in the wedding industry as well as some new things coming for SENIORS!!!….I hope my new look displays my love for photography as well as a fresh look on some of my past photography…..I have some minor tweaking to still do but in the end I LOVE MY NEW LOOK!!!

I have seriously worked many hours on this image overhaul…… HERE are a few major changes…..

First of all my new LOGO!!! I really struggled over the logo for a long time….I wanted my name, I wanted a clean look with a bit of edge and I wanted it to print well on anything……Well my good friend Brian Kalwat of Eikon Designs put my vision into action…… He nailed it!!!

I also revamped my main page…..Yes it’s a flash website…..I know some of you hate flash websites well I have a reason for going flash….. 1. my images look better in flash…. 2. I can customize it however I want using Showit Sites….. 3. I have a mobile IPHONE / SMART PHONE plan that will debut in a few months that will allow mobile users as well as Web users to have a great experience at my site….

Here is a pic of the new danielstancil.com home page PLEASE notice when you go to my new site (the icon to the bottom right) allows you to go FULL SCREEN….Trust me you have to try it…..:)

The next major change is MY PORTFOLIO sites…. I took my favorite images from last year and built a custom gorgeous full screen image browser…..

I wanted my images to do the talking not me…..I personally LOVE it!!!!  Take some time in a minute and browse the GALLERIES (PS turn up your speakers)!!!!

Here are a couple of the portfolio layouts…..There are a few other minor changes that were major for me such as a nice contact page and a general pricing page……Some major things I am working on for upcoming brides is custom websites for them to utilize to brag on their big day….I am also working on a custom after wedding site where my clients can display the images from their wedding day in a really creative way….

Obviously if you don’t book me you don’t get that kind of treatment….:)

The truth of the matter is that brides are already building their own websites through different services and they look like …….. well you get my point…… so I am stepping up my game to offer them something custom!!!! Come on now that’s cool:)

Here is a screen capture of what that may look like for them…. This is Jennifer and Drews Wedding I shot back in June…..

ONE FINAL MAJJJJJOOOORRRRR Change!!!!! I am stoked about this….. I will be blogging differently from now on…..My blog I feel has been cluttered with lots of long long post…..NO MORE!!!!

Here is how I will display my photos on the blog from this day on…….The beauty of this little gem is that it’s IPHONE friendly as well as smart phone friendly….

I am really trying to stay ahead of the curve in the techno world….I am changing my way of doing business to make room for more business in the future….

Here is a how all of the past pics from this post will appear with my new widget….

GO AHEAD CLICK ON THE IMAGE AND GO BIGGER!!!!!!!!!

Well now time to view all the changes in ACTIONNNNNNN!!!!!!!!! Feel Free to leave me your thoughts below……

Also If you experience problems please let me know…..IT’s ALLLLLL NEWWWWWWW!!!!!
