Being a super duper pet lover, I can never turn down an opportunity to photograph a client's pet. Anyone who has a pet knows that they are just like your kids. And like kids, you want them photographed to document them as part of the family. Here is little Lexi. She is such a little princess and there's a chance the owners have a bigger photo of her in their living room than their kids' photos. :P

Welcome Baby Evan!
Woo Hoo! I've officially photographed my first newborn session without being peed on! Jen & Mike just had a little baby boy and asked me to photograph their little Evan. What a cute little dude! He was pretty mellow during the photoshoot and just kind of stared at me the entire time. I found two little areas in their house where amazing natural lighting was coming through. Congratulations to Jen & Mike and welcome to Evan! You're one lucky little man to have such amazing people as parents.

Unites States of Pop Remix
This posting has very little to do with photography but I had to share it with you guys. Sometimes I throw in stuff about myself so you have a better idea of who I am. Well this remix by DJ Earworm accurately reflects my enthusiasm for photography. This would be an amazing track remix for a fashion show, say at a high school or a hip, high energy wedding fashion show. So if you're having a rough day at the office, close your door and crank this one up - Cheers!

Wedding Faire - Santa Convention Center | Booth 507
What an amazing first time experience for me at this weekend's wedding faire at the Santa Clara Convention Center. I was busy all week planning and prepping for this big two day event. I met so many cool couples this weekend who were excited to get married this year. I didn't really know what to expect but had some very fun 'neighbors' including Gunther's Catering & A Piece of Cake. Let me just say I ate very well all weekend.
The backdrop was something I built two days before the faire. My buddy Peter came through and helped me out with the setup. My wife wasn't as thrilled as I lugged all our furniture from our living room. To top it off, Bloomster's was kind enough to provide a beautiful floral arrangement and a bouquet for my booth. It attracted some major attention and I couldn't thank the owner Kren enough for delivering it himself. That's the kind of service Bloomster's is known for! Now it's time to get back into the studio and start contacting the folks who left their information with me to see how I can help them document their special day.

Tom Vo Photography | New Portfolio Montage Video
I just put this together for the upcoming wedding faire. There were photos from the weddings I shot in 2009. It's fun to see all the different weddings in one slideshow video. Check it out and let me know what you think. Cheers!

Wedding Faire | Santa Clara Convention Center Jan 9 & 10th
Happy New Year everyone!! I'd like to invite all couples getting married this year to the Wedding Faire at the Santa Clara Convention Center. It's on both January 9 & 10th so come by and check out all the different vendors. I've been crazy busy prepping for this bridal faire. I'll be there at booth 507 so make sure you pop by and say hi. I'm stoked to have my new canvas prints on on the backdrop I built this week. I'll definitely post some photos of what my booth looks like. The goal was to keep it simple and to avoid 'cheesiness' at all cost. Honestly I am just as nervous since this is my first wedding faire ever but like always, I'll just go with the flow. Wish me luck!

Exciting New Business Name for 2010
2010 will be the year I change my business name from Accolade Photography to Tom Vo Photography. In the days to follow, I'll be making the edits to my new website and some minor changes to this blog site. I apologize ahead of time for any weird things that might be happening as you visit our sites. Please don't hesitate to email me with any suggestions you might have about the flow of the website or even grammatical errors. The goal was to keep the site clean and simple with a modern, contemporary look. Thank you again for everyone's support. I really couldn't do it without you. Here's a peek at the opening screen for my new website & logo. I like the blue/grey combo in the middle but the brown tones won in the end. Let me know your thoughts. Cheers! ~Tom

Fairmont Hotel Website
This was such a fluke but I was surfing the web and came across some of my work from this past October. I was the photographer for Randa & Matt's Wedding at the beautiful Fairmont Hotel up in the city. It was a blast shooting the bridal party on cable cars and at the magnificent St. Patrick's Church. I can't wait to come back in 2010 throughout wedding season.
