Sandra Gans comments:  I couldn't wait to capture images of this 3.5 pound Yorkie Maltese better known as the mixed breed "Morkie"   Up on the Product table we go "Lights Camera Action", 10 photo's into the session and Lily falls asleep standing up "Third photo to the right."
       
We gently got her to wake up and continued the photography session. You never know what to expect when the client is pet. She is so Cute..what a keeper..   Thanks to the De Berardinis owners of this puppy!

Florida Digital Gallery always enjoys the opportunity to create images of pets.
]]>Florida Digital Gallery has a new Web & Blog Site!http://fdgblog.com/blog/2009/12/3/florida-digital-gallery-has-a-new-web-blog-site.htmlFDG2009-12-03T15:26:37Z2009-12-03T15:26:37ZFirst Decision
After much deliberation between Sandy and myself, we determined that canned Web sites were not for us. We needed a brand new look and feel for our organization, a site that allowed us to maintain the entire Web and Blog content, plus the physical layout necessary to remain current with todays Social networking.  

Second Decision

After many hour of research we decided to utilize Squarespace www.squarespace.com a fully hosted, completely managed environment. It provides us with full control over our content and site customization.  With customizable photo galleries and Lightbox integration, maintaing image resizing is simply a breeze. Not to mention the seamless integration of Florida Digital Gallery’s blog and Web Site all on one platform. Lastly the Social networking integration and vast amount of “plug in’s” available provide powerful analytics for viewing traffic and behavior of our visitors.

Terry Klein, contacted Florida Digital Gallery for a exclusive studio photo session to capture Sofia for the Fort Lauderdale's Children Ballet Theatre program book, Coppelia. Sofia has studied ballet for over 6 years and is very passionate about the art of ballet. This two hour photo session captured both the classical along with some creative movements.

We found Sofia very graceful and incredibly focused, but most importantly she knows how to have fun and strike a pose! Mrs. Klein enjoyed the end results and will share some of these wonderful photos with family and friends.

Florida Digital Gallery always enjoys photographing fun and delightful children of all ages.

Hanna was such a trooper, posing as if she was a runway model.  Hanna’s beautiful course black hair, plus a very pink tummy worked well against a white back drop.  Cindy DeMichele, the dogs owner was thrilled with Sandy and my photographic results.

Toward the end of our session Hanna became a bit bashful with the flashing Pro-photo lights but we accomplished our task, over thirty pictures taken with a pristine look and feel.

Much thanks to Cindy & Rich for trusting us with their loved one.
