My husband and I were searching for a photographer for our wedding and we wanted someone eclectic and timeless. When we found Devende Photography, we knew instantly that he would provide us with everything we were looking for. Having Devende photography as our photographer was the BEST decision we made. They are the most innovative, modern-day, distinct photography company in Southern California. Their work is classic, yet contemporary with immense color and digital imaging. Our wedding photos were amazing and the photo album expressed our unique wedding day and personsonalities. When I go back to look at them, it takes me back to that day like it were yesterday. They've become our family photographer's. They photographed another event for us recently , and we intend to use them for all of our future life milestones. They will always have our business because we know that they have amazing work & service, but most of all a friendship for a lifetime.!!! You will not be dissatisfied! ~ The Garcia's (Victor and Kim)</span><br />

No one on the internet had any helpful advice to get the AC9 for Nikon to work, which is why we created this support page. We called Pocket Wizard and they could not get it to work either. They said we were the first to call for the Nikon version. But we found the solution on our own. As you know we proudly use Nikon therefore we are one of the first to use the AC9 for Nikon. What you have to do to get it to work:<br />
<br />
Go to Pocket Wizard utility (open)> plug in your TT5 with the AC9 attached> Click on the little blue gear on the bottom left corner of the Pocket Wizard utility (the configure updates button)> Click on the firmware updates tab (<b>note: simply updating firmware to the latest update wont do it, you have to manually get the beta test firmware</b>)> Click on "yes i would like to have access to the beta test firmware (version 2 build 146 or Latest Beta)> Hit OK and download the firmware (version 2- build 146 or Latest Beta)> Then repeat the process for the rest of your TT1's and TT5's and your good to go. (Note: make sure you have the dummy mini sync cord in to shut down the optical slave)<br />

We got some excellent Bride & Groom portraits of Kevin & Cortney Hughes and everything went great........until a gust of wind came by and blew over our studio flash units which broke of course. One was an AlienBee B1600 studio strobe which is my favorite, which cracked in the back next to the AC plug......tear. I called Paul C. Buff Inc. and was wondering how much it was going to cost to repair one of DeVende Photography,s favorite lights. To my surprise they stated they will repair it for free just send it in. To all you fellow Photographers out there, not only are these flash heads great products and superb light but they have excellent customer service. Believe the hype, this company rocks! Thank you! The photo above was done with a AB 1600 with large softbox (just before the wind blew it over) , and an SB900 speedlight behind the bride to simulate the sun and create a solar flare triggered by Pocket Wizard TT5's. (Nikon D700 with 17-35mm)<br />

From makeup at MAC, Pasadena city Hall, Santa Monica pier, wow what an adventure. Myself as well as Jon & Edi did get wet as the tide came up sooner than expected. Jon's shoes, wallet, and cell phone was almost a total loss. We took a break at a fantastic hotdog stand and then called it a night. Pictures will be up shortly, but we wanted to thank Jon & Edi for some great times.<div class="blogger-post-footer">www.devendephoto.com</div>DeVende Photographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11467460122160032287noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7044687764561824708.post-38113305266760025062011-04-04T10:08:00.000-07:002011-04-04T10:08:11.478-07:00Eric & Elizabeth<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbZtbtHgDNbv3osoE38qPNA1PhN5QfALRbu1JdhFwxUYBi4O8fJN909s-bSYUqA0mel9LuYIVJBnEmZre51bhp_ZuYrqNMDmu_3ikpzNJ1hFGxf2CJB1cTqVDwRR_Bv4dH__T_QFnsUsQd/s1600/1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="160" r6="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbZtbtHgDNbv3osoE38qPNA1PhN5QfALRbu1JdhFwxUYBi4O8fJN909s-bSYUqA0mel9LuYIVJBnEmZre51bhp_ZuYrqNMDmu_3ikpzNJ1hFGxf2CJB1cTqVDwRR_Bv4dH__T_QFnsUsQd/s320/1.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>Wow, what a classic couple this is. It was no effort at all to give this shoot that 1940's feel. Eric who works for the Armed Forces had such a spectacular look for this shoot. Of course he was in the shadow of his beautiful Fiance Elizabeth who needed no coaching to get that classic look in her vintage apparel with pretentious black pumps. They drew so much attention as we walked through Union Station with people yelling " OMG! look at them" or " You guys are so sexy"and so on. It was a rewarding experience to shoot these two and we are Honored to be their Photographers. Thank you again Eric & Elizabeth!<div class="blogger-post-footer">www.devendephoto.com</div>DeVende Photographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11467460122160032287noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7044687764561824708.post-36630297928801158712011-03-28T09:33:00.000-07:002011-03-28T09:35:37.009-07:00Robby & Megan<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiCekXck5wQbOyeN_aoEN0tglmhJ7hBXaO6FjdYQzx9viw9_g0oYV2fnaH9A9V6GMExC_51ySXNSSQxzYkSPAojPGU3xM75yiw-Yzfn7RZ8qjTOkrc6Ltlp9uv5PjPY_o3uySjovonIzG7/s1600/DEV_3012.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="206" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiCekXck5wQbOyeN_aoEN0tglmhJ7hBXaO6FjdYQzx9viw9_g0oYV2fnaH9A9V6GMExC_51ySXNSSQxzYkSPAojPGU3xM75yiw-Yzfn7RZ8qjTOkrc6Ltlp9uv5PjPY_o3uySjovonIzG7/s320/DEV_3012.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>It was a pleasure to see Robby & Megan behind the lens again.

Her radiance is obviously demonstrated in her photos but seeing her in person is an experience in itself. Her cheerful positive attitude and fun personality makes these shoots truly a pleasure. It was absolutely freezing on location, even Hannah was having a hard time, but she held up so well and rolled with the punches in the cold weather. We hope she continues to do well with her Modeling, and we hope to see her again soon.<div class="blogger-post-footer">www.devendephoto.com</div>DeVende Photographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11467460122160032287noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7044687764561824708.post-14519986707933618772011-03-11T23:23:00.000-08:002011-03-11T23:24:51.257-08:00DeVende Photography Testimonial from: Eric & Vanessa<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBQYHai5-qF4w8kP0wLCf7jS-b7y7CkMNXatgfRF37oGOXar5MwWShGy2ZmZq1lyJ9cx9TWQ2TSauJA_x7lgvrGVt-gy1wEI4tzhBg6PnoPIWZuGgQ8X8mj6ZuTE5TSpad787Nv1zUEQHD/s1600/Cover+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgBQYHai5-qF4w8kP0wLCf7jS-b7y7CkMNXatgfRF37oGOXar5MwWShGy2ZmZq1lyJ9cx9TWQ2TSauJA_x7lgvrGVt-gy1wEI4tzhBg6PnoPIWZuGgQ8X8mj6ZuTE5TSpad787Nv1zUEQHD/s320/Cover+2.jpg" width="211" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqZj0WktgZvo94VP8nNmSma3OmluiJZXZj6hEKWPYNFXPsqUdd0Ql3xu5hVzzpN4aynIDqkpGguslKiwtaDC8adz7g83otWQrsP_GKnaf7sbp3AE-dpRf7uaOjHjj4ArpKihdzp9Tnq9df/s1600/DEV_1923.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgqZj0WktgZvo94VP8nNmSma3OmluiJZXZj6hEKWPYNFXPsqUdd0Ql3xu5hVzzpN4aynIDqkpGguslKiwtaDC8adz7g83otWQrsP_GKnaf7sbp3AE-dpRf7uaOjHjj4ArpKihdzp9Tnq9df/s320/DEV_1923.jpg" width="213" /></a></div><br />

</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: collapse; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">I was the last of my sisters to marry and so I had experienced other wedding photographers. I decided to forego using a photographer my family had a relationship with and instead chose DeVende Photography. [In fact, had previously signed a contract with my sister's photographer but terminated it once I saw Matt's work.] Matt's wedding albums were vibrant and literally showcased each moment of the day. His style is hard to articulate and it was exactly what my future husband and I were looking for. Matt made the effort to get to know us, as a couple, but also our very large extended family and the pictures convey the message perfectly! Everyone was at ease and comfortable in his presence. Matt has an amazing eye for detail and he us meticulous about capturing those stolen moments which are now some of my favorite photos. I can't say enough good things about Matt or his company.</span><div class="blogger-post-footer">www.devendephoto.com</div>DeVende Photographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11467460122160032287noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7044687764561824708.post-81124131754546319242011-03-07T09:15:00.000-08:002011-03-07T09:24:28.129-08:00Kevin & Cortney<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhX0quUNi6tGlkSQe99a3Sq4Dq4QiwGSEhDH1GtY10bCt8n8rH1ln73J5JPCAdSeqtJ2cFXvGo-mkM6eP8udLv1MuXKFeiQ6V8WN4kVm1HS6pzApCq7C98haEENZl8vB4Z5wfGLsv88ALW2/s1600/DEV_1743-Edit.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="187" q6="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhX0quUNi6tGlkSQe99a3Sq4Dq4QiwGSEhDH1GtY10bCt8n8rH1ln73J5JPCAdSeqtJ2cFXvGo-mkM6eP8udLv1MuXKFeiQ6V8WN4kVm1HS6pzApCq7C98haEENZl8vB4Z5wfGLsv88ALW2/s320/DEV_1743-Edit.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>Had such a great time shooting Kevin and Cortney yesterday. These two are "crazy in love". There was literally no need to pose them, the built in love and affection they have for each other was evident. Even after I was done shooting a specific shot they just kept on doing their thing. I learned quite a bit about their story, family, and past. I am ever looking forward to going to Nevada next month with the DeVende crew to photograph and watch them seal the deal on their happiness and future. Thanks for sharing your day with me yesterday.<div class="blogger-post-footer">www.devendephoto.com</div>DeVende Photographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11467460122160032287noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7044687764561824708.post-79836501415166176902011-02-28T18:36:00.000-08:002011-02-28T18:36:07.543-08:00Tim & Maricela<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAJPPI3df_OaRZ0iGC6EUcml836UrqAke8ynu6QH4l_6KicDEt4wtbjkA3_jtWoH3ljXA2gRlyed_Az7_gxeDjznZofMecfhCGl6-0wIncbhFeOHAlS1v7VGu65UlNA_bP4G_uJLLTwMV4/s1600/DEV_0637.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="213" l6="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAJPPI3df_OaRZ0iGC6EUcml836UrqAke8ynu6QH4l_6KicDEt4wtbjkA3_jtWoH3ljXA2gRlyed_Az7_gxeDjznZofMecfhCGl6-0wIncbhFeOHAlS1v7VGu65UlNA_bP4G_uJLLTwMV4/s320/DEV_0637.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>Had such a great time shooting Tim & Maricela's engagement photos. A creative and youthful couple that is very full of life. Tim should leave his day job and become a comedian due to the blurry shots we had to pull from the archive because of laughing during the shoot. We asked Maricela " how do you deal with this man all day?" We loved every moment of the shoot despite the cold weather as a result of the warm and loving individuals that we photographed.

These two took to the air to say their Wedding vows in a hot air balloon over the skys of Temecula Valley. It was a serene environment and a blissful ceremony at a 1000 ft. One hour later, they touched down in another vineyard with looks of joy and effortless happiness after saying their "I DO's".

He hopes that the moment in time with his wife and young children at this stage is captured, and not lost in the fire of time that consumes our precious moments. I have learned a great deal from this client, and it has inspired me to shoot in the fashion that he expects, which borders the defintiton of the ultimate professional. He is the epitome of a portrait, the true meaning of explaining everything about the person in a single image. He presents the ultimate challenge to the photograper we all hope we will succeed in getting to photograph our moments. This by far is the most challenging asignment that has been presented to date.<br />
A private individual, who wishes to be discreet is who he is. DeVende Photography is pleased to be working this new client and looks forward to explaining who he is in the photographs we bring to the eye.<div class="blogger-post-footer">www.devendephoto.com</div>DeVende Photographyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11467460122160032287noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7044687764561824708.post-68075624190210658862011-01-27T21:10:00.000-08:002011-01-27T21:12:36.981-08:00Allen Feilds and Gina Stranieri (Temecula, California)DeVende Photography is looking forward to shooting Allen and Gina's Wedding in February.
