GG-IMAGES

I am overly proud to announce my wife’s new website for her boudoir photography. Her photos are taken in gorgeous locations and are the most tasteful, sophisticated and elegant, second to none. Hence Couture Boudoir!

Make sure to check out the new website at www.coutureboudoir.com. The Holidays are coming up and here is a great idea for an unforgettable present. And … guys, I am talking to you, too (hint, hint!)!

Critsey offers her sessions locally as well as nationwide and she is even presenting an international tour where you can have your pictures taken in the worlds most vibrant places!

Brides in the Carolinas are one step further! They now have Crazy Fancy – Brides of the Carolinas. This is a new website with profiles of many of the great venues, tips news and featured vendors. It also sports a discussion board!

Make sure to drop by often. You will also find articles by me – check out the first one on bridal portraits!

A sneak peek for the My Fair Wedding show with David Tutera is up! WE tv‘s website shows a preview of what is coming.

Critsey and I were the photographers on several episodes and I can’t wait to share the pictures with you! Be patient, and on October 26 you can see a selection of images we took at episode #1 with Wanda & Bert’s “South Beach” theme here on the GG-Blog.

As you might know I am from Munich, Germany, the home of the original Oktoberfest. It is the world’s biggest seasonal fair and if you haven’t been there yet, you should go.

“O’zapft is!” is Bavarian dialect for “Es ist angezapft” which means “it is tapped”. This is what Munich’s mayor announces on the Oktoberfest’s beginning day exactly at 12:00 pm when he taps the first barrel of beer. Tapping a big wooden barrel is not easy and different mayor have shown different skills.
Current mayor Christian Ude has no problems here: he’s in his 13th year of being mayor …

For me getting to the Oktoberfest was a matter 5 minutes while I still lived in Munich. Now it’s a bit farther and since I can’t make it the second year in a row now, I do miss it.

I want to give you a few impressions with pictures I took:

The trailer for My Fair Wedding with David Tutera is up on WE tv.

The first episode will air on October 26 at 9/10 pm and the episodes on which Critsey and I are featured will run on November 2 and 9.

Make sure to tune in on these episodes!

This is so cool! David Tutera told us about this and we had to try it out immediately:

If you have a question you need answered right now (because you have to be right – like I always do …) then text the question to chacha (242242). Shortly after you will get a text back with the answer. Amazing!

Of course I had to ask ChaCha about myself :-) What was the answer? Find out yourself!

If you want to learn more about ChaCha, just go to their website: http://www.chacha.com

To treat myself today with a little birthday present, the GG-Images website got a complete overhaul! Go and check it out! Faster and easier to navigate, huge images and tons of all new pictures in the galleries.

I was blown away by the response to what I showed at the Bridal Showcase and wanted to make sure that everybody is able to see it on the website.
I am so excited and if you like what you see, make sure to come back and comment here.

Last Sunday’s Bridal Showcase at the Charlotte, NC Convention Center featured a new layout and the GG-Images booth got a lot of traffic and overwhelmingly positive response. Thank you for coming!

The art prints that I showed got praise from brides & grooms as well as from vendors and our friendly competition. They will be featured on the revamped website in the next few days. Make sure to check it out!

And I am already thinking about next January’s booth. It’s gonna be a hit! :-)

Alltop (short for “all the top stories”) is an amazing collection of leading websites, all nicely arranged in topics. They call it a “digital magazine rack” of the Internet.
I am proud to tell you that GG-Images are on there, in the Wedding listing. We share this space with other awesome sites like Martha Stewart Weddings, Polka Dot Bride, Events by Evonne, LLC, Southern Weddings Magazine, Style Me Pretty and sooo many more!

Two wedding photographers getting married is worth a story for Carolina Bride Magazine.
Take a look! You can find it on p. 155 of the current July/September issue.

In addition Critsey with her company Indigo Photography have this issue’s cover bride Kelly Davis, who married NFL player Thomas Davis of the Carolina Panthers.

Of course Critsey and I are very flattered! Thank you Carolina Bride!
