BODAS DE ORO/GOLDEN WEDDING ANNIVERSARY.

I was honored to be invited to record this happy event for my loving

relatives. The couple had two loving adult children seen here. The son

has two children and the daughter was also planing for two, but you plan

and GOD gives you what you deserve, well she had tripples + one. Four

for me is one wonderful big loving family.

Always enjoy your Family shots Jorge, and your wonderful zeal for life! I am sure the family will enjoy your recorded memories for many years to come!

A full of life family, just like you are made, my dear friend!

Jorge, This is the type of image that photography was invented for.  Let me suggest that you accumulate all of such that you have made, burn them to discs and give copies to every family member.  I am old enough to know that pictures just vanish and no one in the family knows where they are.

My dear grandmother kept a bureau drawer filled with formal portraits in folders of her family and my grandfather's family in Finland.  When they had both past away and my mother had lost most of her memory, we went through the pictures only to realize that none of us knew who these people were.  The folders were unlabeled.  These were our great aunts and uncles, second cousins, etc. and we have lost knowledge of who is who.  My grandmother, of course, knew them by heart, so she never labeled them.

I remember seeing a snapshot of me as a toddler, dragging my teddybear by one foot, his face dragging on the ground.  I would love to have a copy today but no one seems to know who got Grandma's album.  Be sure to name each picture with the names (from left to right) of the participants and give everyone a copy.

Also, remember that discs can fail.  They have a layer of reflective silver and if a hairline crack allows oxygen to get in it oxidizes the silver and the disc becomes unreadable.  In the same way changes of technology make it so you cannot read older stored images.  I have a reel to reel video tape that shows a magic show that my high school students produced under my instruction and no way to play it.  It turns out that the reel to reel technology was short-lived because it was rapidly replaced by cassette tapes.

With my regards,

Jerry

Hi Jorge,

A fine family gathering, well shot.

Your passion for family is rewarded by the work you do today and that same work that will go on

long into the future.

Best Regards my friend, Mike
