We're in the home stretch for this game and we are coming down to the final clues. Here you go:

Everyone knows who I am...even your great great grand parents.

Vivian and Ruben








We were finally able to get an engagement shoot with Vivian and Ruben. Schedules weren't matching up but we finally did it. These shots were taken near the Cerritos Library and the Sculpture Gardens. It was warm but Vivian and Ruben did very well! Naturals in front of the camera! Hope you guys like your pictures.

New Clue!

Clue #3: Something hot sometimes covers me!

We've gotten quite a few emails of picture answers but none of them are close to the actual answer. There's time left and we're going to let this game run its course until someone sends in the correct picture answer! Have a great weekend!!!

Cantina's Next Top Photographer!!!











Surprisingly, we have been asked by quite a few individuals over the past couple of weeks about our next game. They've been saying that the game is soooo easy to do and fun to play. In fact, it is easy and it is fun to play. All you need is a camera phone and some creativity and you're playing! Our last game involved players to take a picture with their camera phone that had something pink in the background and email it to us at hello@cantinalight.com. This time we have something a bit different. We'll give you a set of clues and you need to figure out what the answer may be and take a picture of your answer. For instance, 1) I'm an arch. 2) Shaped in the form of an M. 3) And I'm not good for you. The answer is McDonalds! Take a picture of any cell phone with your camera phone and send it to us! That's it!

There will be a new set of clues every day so keep coming back. That's of course if you need more clues to come up with the answer. Email your answer to hello@cantinalight.com and our design team will review the images submitted and determine who wins the contest for the week. So let's get this thing started!

Clues:

1) I'm a jewel on black velvet.
2) And a pearl in the sea.

Have fun with this and remember to be creative...our design team looks for that! Note: you can send in as many images as you want.

Who would have known that I would end up shooting your wedding!!! For all of you who don't know, Tamara was my assistant at UBS when I was running money as a stock broker back in the day. Crazy! Tyler started out a little on the shy side (as most people do) but busted out big time and had so much fun during the shoot. We can't wait to shoot your wedding day guys!

Rosita and Chris






















Rosita and Chris met several years ago and as fate had it they would pass each other once again only to find themselves partners in forever! They had a beautiful wedding. Their ceremony was a first for Cantina Light Pictures in that the entire mass was performed in Latin! The church was nice and quaint and very awe inspiring. Their reception was beautiful as well. Most importantly Rosita and Chris couldn't keep their eyes away from one another. As we make this blog entry, their enjoying a beverage somewhere in Kuaii. Hopefully guys you will be able to steal a peak at your pictures in between kisses! Take care...we all had great fun! Let me speak for Samantha and Lyndon in mentioning that it was a great time!

Pretty In Pink Winner!















We'd like to thank everyone who participated in our game this past week! It was great hearing from people asking us, "so what's your guys' real agenda?" There was none outside having fun and doing something new and different. We're looking to do this on a regular basis so for those of you who didn't win this time you still have a chance next time. We'll change it up a bit and make it as entertaining as possible and of course rewarding.

Anyways, lets get down to who won. After mulling over the pictures we got in, our graphics team insisted that Betty and Carlos should get the nod! They were creative and their image looked pleasing to the eye. Background was nice without a lot of clutter and it was an action shot (I guess?) . In the end they were all good images but the team gave the thumbs up to Betty and Carlos this time around. Let's see who next weeks big winner is going to be!

Betty and Carlos won a $25 gift card to Nordstrom. Happy shopping! See you soon!
