Episode 40 // Special Requests From Your Clients by Ulices Del Toro

On this episode I discuss a recent request from a client to remain private and not use any of their photos for promotion or social media. My good friend Marcos also asked me about a client requesting some of his photos that he turned Black and White be re-edited in color, but his problem is those photos were over exposed and only looked good in Black in White. Enjoy the episode, I hope everyone is off to a strong start to the new year!

Episode 37 Gustavo Caraveo - Photographing my first wedding by Ulices Del Toro

Gustavo Caraveo had the opportunity to photograph his very first wedding.

Gustavo is a close friend of mine, so this was a very special for me to able to sit down with a close friend and talk about photography.
