To be or not to be....PINK!!!!

YaY, I'm home!! Vacations are great, and I promise I will have some pictures up soon, but it is always good to be home and back in the swing of things, especially since I have two super-fun weddings this weekend that I'm uber-excited about!

So here's the deal. Business cards are the item on the list and thanks to Kenny Kim and Andres Valenzuela, I've come down to just one more tiny decision...pink, light pink, or no pink.

So it's going to be a silk card 300 from 4colorprint, like I mentioned before, with rounded corners. Here are the three choice which really just come down to color...so I've decided to put it to a vote. Send me your preference by email vanessa@vanessajoy.com, or just leave me a comment here!

Thanks you guys!!

Tango Lessons!

You can't go to Argentina without taking Tango lessons. What I loved the most about the Argentinian Tango is that it's all about communication. It's not a machistic thing where the man must lead the woman, but a communication between the two of them, an understanding of where they are going in a dance and the 3 minutes they have together to discover if they can communicate with each other. Pretty interesting, huh? Here's a video of my first Tango lesson!

Yes!

Empty seat next to me! Score! What more could I ask for on my 11 hour flight? Argentina here I come! :)

I'm leavin' on a jet plane...

Well I'm on my way to Argentina! Luckily, i have a lay over in chicago so i get to have a very quick lunch with Kenny Kim, who doesn't know I'm wearing his shirt as a suprise (see pic of me waiting in an airport restaurant)! Well I'm off to my gate to make sure my flight's still on time. ¡Adiós!

Business Cards!!

Well, the logo is almost finished thanks to the wonderful efforts of Jennifer Young being an amazing graphic artist and with the help of my friends and family giving me input on it.

So I've started to look at business cards and from everything that I know about marketing, business cards are a huge part of your branding and everything else. I've decided to go with a company, 4colorprint.com , which makes silk business cards. I've seen them before and they're gorgeous, but now they got even better because they came up with a thicker card stock for the silk, which makes my card stand out even more.

For those of you who'd like a small peek at my logo so far, here is my mini-logo as I'm calling it (as opposed to the full logo which we're still working on).



And good news with the website. Thanks to the pushing of my fellow photographers, especially kenny who has now linked my under construction website in one of his blogs, now making it totally public and really putting on the pressure, I have completed a huge section and I'm aiming to have at least a first draft live by Thursday when I leave for Argentina. :-) So, I'd better get crackin'!!!
