Extended Portfolio

This is a great place to see some of the work we've produced that's not on our website.  You can go back all the way untill we first started this blog in March 2007.

Recently though we've moved all new blog activity to michaelandannacosta.com/blog (formely dedicated exclusiverly to our personal lives)

Thanks for visiting!

Taryn + Jeremy = Lots of Laughs, Fun, & Beauty

There was beauty all around at one of my favorite places - the John Paul Getty Museum in LA.  It’s important to note that while you’re not officially allowed to shoot for professional purposes there, the staff lets you get away with it, as long as you’re not being obnoxious or holding up foot traffic.  The obvious other beauty radiated inside and out of our gorgeous couple, Taryn & Jeremy.  While posting these images and looking at this scene, I had to reflect on how blessed we are and how much I love that we do this for a living.

The Good, The Bad, The Spammer

Okay so here’s the sich;  I’m having to approve every individual that wants to join Photo For The People now because of spammers trying to abuse this great recourse of information.  So, while I’m doing this a few minuets ago, thinking about what a waste of time it is, I developed a fairly effective technique at rooting them out.  Basically all you do is copy & paste their email address into a Google search, and if they are a spammer, it’s likely that their email address will pop up on a bunch of random forums with various topics not having to do with each other at all.  Presto, Deleted!!!

On a happier note, join us today on PFTP at 3:00 pm PST for a live Q & A with our friend Jose Villa.  To be a part of the conversation and for us to let you know when all this kind of good stuff is happening, register here, + it's free.  We look forward to hanging out with you soon!
