Free Desktop Calendar Wallpaper for May 2012 | Yellow Tulips

lizamae — Mon, 30 Apr 2012 01:45:05 +0000

This is the desktop calendar wallpaper for the month of May 2012 which a picture of yellow tulips. I thought it was appropriate for May because of the changing weather and when tulips bloom, it is a sign of spring for they are spring blooming perennials. I love how tulips are so minimalistic in that there is only one flower per stem. I find beauty in the smooth and clean lines of a tulip. May is my birth month and also is a month of changing warm weather which leads us to the summer months.

Ryan K. | Creative Male Portrait | B&W

lizamae — Tue, 24 Apr 2012 18:49:12 +0000

I recently purchased a background stand and black background material, so I can shoot against black and my friend Ryan happened to come over and he agreed to doing a quick creative male portrait photo shoot. I told him to do some yoga poses and this was warrior one but you couldn’t tell for his legs can’t be seen. I was surprised how this photo turned out for I only used the light from the ceiling as my light source.

I’m still trying to figure out what to name this photo. Please leave me your suggestions! Thanks!

Free Desktop Calendar Wallpaper for April 2012 | Couple in the Rain

lizamae — Mon, 02 Apr 2012 00:45:57 +0000

This is the desktop calendar wallpaper for the month of April 2012 which a picture of a couple in the rain in black and white with red umbrellas. I took this picture in Shanghai, China and for some reason it is one of my favorite pictures I’ve taken. There is so much emotion of love, affection, and intimacy. I know April is a rainy month in Toronto and most of North America, so I thought this month’s calendar was appropriate. Though most people associate rain with sadness, this picture captures the simple moments enjoyed in the rain. Hope you have an amazing beginning of spring!

“When the sun shines, we’ll shine together
Told you I’ll be here forever
Said I’ll always be a friend
Took an oath I’ma stick it out till the end
Now that it’s raining more than ever
Know that we’ll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella”

- Rihanna

lizamae — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 18:05:03 +0000

This is a sample of a fashion portrait photo shoot I had with Dale M.whom I met on set at ‘Total Recall’ in the summer. Though this is the second time he’s done a shoot, he was really easy to work with and he doesn’t consider himself a model but he has a lot of talents up his sleeve.

Currently, I am looking to do more shoots like this and it seems most of my clients lately have been males. Is it a sign or something?

I just wanted to dedicate this September 11 memorial prayer for those who have passed and to the families and friends whom it has directly affected. I have fond memories of this day for New York City is one of my favorite cities to visit and have so many loved ones whom live there. I was just in New York City and visited ground zero and I’m happy to say that New York is starting to rebuild from September 11. My heart goes out in memory of those lives that were lost that day.

lizamae — Tue, 30 Aug 2011 19:21:37 +0000

This is the desktop calendar wallpaper for the month of September 2011 which is a picture of a beautiful yellow butterfly I captured with my iPhone 4. On my walks or runs in my neighborhood I noticed a lot of butterflies fluttering around and one stumbled on a plant in my front yard and I only had my iPhone to capture it but I hope you enjoy this month’s desktop calendar wallaper.

“We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty.”
— Maya Angelou

September marks the changes of season from summer to fall or for students it is the start of a new school year. This is why I thought September’s desktop calendar wallpaper design would be fitting for butterfly’s represent changes that occur in September. In my family we have many family members who were born in September, so I will be kept busy with family dinners and cake diets.

“Some people are settling down, some people are settling and some people refuse to settle for anything less than butterflies.”
— Candace Bushnell

This portrait was taken at Battery Park City in New York City with my little cousin, Elizabeth. This was taken after she ran through the water playground in her street clothes. I wish I was brave enough to do such things. Some days I wish I was a kid again.
