HAPPY YOU YEAR!

Wow! That was kind of year, right? Going through challenges where all I wanted to do was give up. But I didn't, because giving up is lame. I have no idea what 2015 has in store for me, but I can't wait to find out. Put your happiness first and don't forget to follow you dreams. Thank you for being with me and HAPPY YOU YEAR!

SAN FRANCISCO CITY HALL ELOPEMENT

I shot this adorable wedding in November and I am more than happy to share it with you all! These lovebirds got in touch with me with a request of me being not just their photographer, but their witness as well and it was my biggest yes ever! They created stylish and chic elopement and they deserved all the compliments they got during the day. I wish everyone would be as creative and cute as you, guys. Thank you for choosing me and trusting me. It means a lot to me <3.

PRESIDIO LIGHT

No need to say that Presidio is one of the prettiest places in San Francisco. The trees make the light absolutely gorgeous and I was happy that my lovely French friend Aurelia was down to go there and shoot with me.

Launch Scale 2014

LAUNCH SCALE is a conference featuring the technology and technologists who are building the fastest growing companies in the world. This interesting event wrapped up in the end of October in San Francisco, California. LAUNCH was created by Jason Calacanis, an American entrepreneur and blogger. He invests millions of dollars in the most promising startups every year.

LAUNCH SCALE helps over 700 attendants to learn a ton about how to run their business. Over 50 founders and directors, from companies such as Zillow, Thumbtack, Smule, Next-door, Square, Reddit & Chipmunk, Yelp, Pinterest, Greenhouse, Paypal, Jawbone, Dell or Eventbrite, were invited to speak at Mission Bay Conference Center. They answered questions like: How do I create a brand voice for my startup? What do I do when a customer is unhappy? How do I recruit senior designers and developers with limited funding? How do I price my product for maximum growth? How do I increase my rank in the app store? How do I avoid liability and lawsuits? How much should user feedback change my product? How do I make an awesome product video? How do I get good Yelp reviews for my startup? How do I expand internationally? How do I get a celebrity to talk about my product on YouTube? How can I reduce the number of 1 star reviews for my app?

It was my first conference ever and I loved the idea of sharing the professional experience how to grow the successful business. The startup atmosphere was really casual and people were friendly and funny, especially while singing karaoke during a keynote speech. I am happy I got the opportunity to learn more about the technology industry and meet very interesting/important people.

LAUNCH FESTIVAL is another interesting event happening March 2-4, 2015 at Fort Mason Center, San Francisco. Forty companies will launch for the first time and they are gonna compete for titles such as best design or best technology. Over 8000 attendees makes this conference the biggest startup/technology event in the world.
