Soy una jovencita que lucha por todas mis metas. Las dos metas que son mas importante para mi es ir a la universidad de UC Davis para graduar me en criminologĂa. La otra meta es poder ser una modelo profesional. El concurso Miss Covergirl me enseĂąo que todo puedes lograr con mucha determinaciĂłn y fe. Yo se que puedo hacer todos mis sueĂąos realidad.

You’ ve put so much timye INCES you’ ll want ever ow QU ur yo ng ni an pl to in rt fo and ef album. But how do you kn o ot ph ur yo r fo ed ur pt ca t special momen you’ re considering er th he W u? yo r fo ht rig is which photographer d professionals in this magazine or another any of our recommende, you need to do your homework. professional
THE MOST IMPORTANT THINGS TO CON- SIDER WHEN CHOOSING THE CAMERA GUY... EXPERIENCE: How long has he/she been doing this? Also, is this his/her full time job or just a hobby? PHOTOGRAPHIC STYLE - Fun, formal,artisitic, journalistic, all the above, etc... HONESTY - Is this the photographer that will be photographing your quinceañera or will they send in whomever is available. Don’t be shocked, this happens more often than you can imagine. HIS PERSONALITY - Do you get along with him/her? Is there “chemistry”? If you don’t, it will show in your pictures. APPEARENCE - Ask him/her what will wear the day of the event... NO JEANS PLEASE!!! DELIVERY - How long does he/she take to deliver your album? Believe it or not, some of them take more than a year! CONTRACT - Do you understand the contract? Make sure everything is written. Read it ALL. REFERENCES - A personal reference is always the best and people love to talk. Get a list of references from the photographer and check them out personally. A photographer who doesn’t have references or is afraid to give them to you may not be the person that you want to hire.
Questions to ask to the Photographer HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN IN BUSINESS? HOW MANY QUINCEAÑERAS HAVE YOU SHOT? WHAT DISTINGUISHES YOUR WORK FROM THAT OF OTHER PHOTOGRAPHERS? DO YOU HAVE A PORTFOLIO I CAN REVIEW? CAN I SEE YOUR MOST RECENT WORK? WHAT TYPE OF EQUIPMENT DO YOU USE? CAN I GIVE YOU A LIST OF SPECIFIC SHOTS I WOULD LIKE? WHAT INFORMATION DO I NEED TO PROVIDE YOU BEFORE THE EVENT DAY? ARE YOU THE PHOTOGRAPHER WHO WILL SHOOT MY QUINCE? DO YOU HAVE BACKUP EQUIPMENT? ARE YOU PHOTOGRAPHING OTHER EVENTS ON THE SAME DAY AS MINE? HOW WILL YOU (AND YOUR ASSISTANTS) BE DRESSED? IS IT OKAY IF OTHER PEOPLE TAKE PHOTOS WHILE YOU’RE TAKING PHOTOS? HOW LONG AFTER I ORDER MY PHOTOS/ALBUM WILL I GET THEM?
QUESTIONS YOU SHOULD ASK YOURSELF DO I FEEL A CONNECTION WITH THIS PHOTOGRAPHER? ARE OUR PERSONALITIES A GOOD MATCH? 16
AM I COMFORTABLE WITH THIS PERSON’S WORK AND STYLE? JANUARY – JULY 2012

s n o i t a t i v n i When you give someone an invitation it’s the first impression they will get of your party, and like everybody knows the first impression is always the most important. So make sure your invitations are what you want and match the theme of your party. There are many companies that make invitations and allow you to add a personal touch to your invitations (like SoloInvitaciones.com).
How many invitations should you buy? st or an You can buy an invitation for every gue ite list invitation per family. Look through your inv er. and see how many invitations you should ord
Photo by: Hugo Benson
Who will the invitation be directed to? If it’s a couple it should be Mr. and Mrs. (last name). If it’s a family it should be Fam. (last name). If it’s a friend it could be Miss (first and last name). If it’s a guy friend you should put Mr. (first and last name). If you are only inviting two or so people in a family you should direct it to them. If it’s one person and you don’t know who their plus one is, you should write Mr.(first and last name) and guest. 22

Your party can be at a club type of thing . You can have a live band if you’d like. The food isn’t that high on the “to stress about” list. What is big on that list would be where you are having it at. If you are not very traditional the organizing of a party won’t take much time. MOSTLY B’s You are super social, so it won’t matter where you have it you’ll have fun. You like to be the center of attention and like to have things your way. You are very creative and a theme might be good for you.
28
MOSTLY C’s This has probably been your dream since your were like 5 so here’s a chance to make that dream come true. You’re a dreamer and like things the traditional way. Family is the most important thing to you and you want to have them all be able to be there to share it with you. You want the more traditional things like the father / daughter dance and making some kind of thank you speech.

There are many kind of gifts you can give. We recommend that you give something that goes along with your theme. Think about something cute and fun that your guests would like.

Church
Close your eyes and imagine this : Your are at the church walking down the aisle and it’s just quiet. You can hear your footsteps on the floor. It’s just an akward silence as everyone stares at you walking. Now imagine this: You’re at the church and walking down the aisle and the song “Ave Maria” is playing . There is no akward silence and no sounds of your footsteps . WHICH SCENE SOUNDS BETTER?
HAVING MUSIC AT THE CHURCH ADDS EMOTION TO THE MOMENT AND WILL KEEP EVERYONE HAPPY AND FOCUSED. MANY CHURCHES OFFER MUSIC FOR THE CEREMONY BUT IF THEY DON’T YOU CAN GET MUSIC SEPARATELY.

Are part of the show for your party. Tend to be upbeat and get your guests dancing. Can play various styles of music.
It’s cheaper than live music. You get to listen to the original version of the songs. They can play anything you want. They could also be your MC...
You should visit the DJ or musical group’s website because they usually have pictures or videos of previous events. This will give you an idea of the quality of their work.
80
JANUARY – JULY 2012
SOME QUESTIONS YOU SHOULD ASK THE DJ OR BAND:
What does the price include? How long will they play music for? How many group members will show up? What kind of music they usually play? Does it include lighting? How much do they charge for an extra hour?
