Fenway Lights!


On April 24th my friend Zaba and I trucked up to Boston to see the Sox play the Jays. We had standing room tickets but we both knew it would only be a matter of time before we scored something better! True to the prophecy, Roy Halladay whipped Julian Tavarez and the Sox thus creating a mass exit of the stadium around the 5th inning. As we snuck by security leading to the 1st base box seat section, we came upon two empty front isle seats( about 12 rows back ). After asking the people next to the seats if anyone was occupying them, (they said no) we decided to sit and enjoy. Thus scoring $125.00 tix for the mere price of standing...$20.00. Hey even though it was only for 3 innings or so it was worth it!!

I was extremely excited because I knew it would give me a better chance to grab some good pics of the game. It was sort of like living that dream to be down in the photographers dugout with a 800mm telephoto lens. Anyway, I'll be posting some of the pics I took as I finish processing them.
I hope you all enjoy, if there are any images you would like, contact me so I can print them for you.

Till next time,

Eric

A Special Thanks!!

We would like to say thank you to a few people who have helped us and our business grow. Without the help we've received from these people, the birth and success of Visions Photography wouldn't have been possible.

The Great Spirit - For making it all humanly possible!

Rebekkah Butler - For hiring me on my 1st job as a 2nd shooter and giving me the confidence to pursue a career in wedding photography. You took a chance on me and it will always be appreciated!

Craig Freeman - For being a mentor, sharing all your knowledge and secrets about photography. You continue to be a great friend and are a great inspiration to us! You give us competitive drive and we always enjoy the experiences we share. We would not be half as successful without you!

John & Kimberly Cottle - First and foremost, John, you are the one friend I can always count on! As a photoshop GURU and our personal printing lab, your abilities have taken Visions to new heights. You are truly a master of the arts, and your continuous help is a big reason why we can be so competitive with our service. Even though we are 600 miles and 9 hours away, it still feels like we're back in Williamsburg.

Kimberly, John is a lucky man! Your professionalism and knowledge of all things business are a great asset to us. You have consistently shown us better ways to function and be more efficient. We are very excited to see what the future holds for both of are endeavors and wish you the best of luck as well. Even though we haven't met face to face yet, it feels as if we have been friends for years.

Tina Vega - Thank you for promoting us in your Crown Plaza wedding package. The exposure your giving us will propel Visions leaps and bounds! We look forward to a long and healthy relationship with you and your hotel. We would also like to extend our best wishes on your up coming delivery of your new son, keep us posted!

Bill "Sparky" Reid - The "PC, Website & Blog Master" (New York Times). Not to mention Jim Crammer Junkie! The true technician behind the future success of our website and it's counter parts.

The New Visions Photography Marketing Manager






Hello everyone,

This is my awesome wife Erin. Our business has been growing at a rate that I can no longer handle by myself. So with a little arm twisting, Erin has agreed to come on as our marketing manager. She brings years of experience from the retail and hospitality industries that will help us leaps and bounds in achieving our goals. She is the real driving force and motivation behind the birth of Visions Photography. Not only will this move improve our marketing abilities, it will also give me more time to concentrate on the ever changing culture of Wedding Photography.

If you have any questions for Erin about our business, feel free to give us a call or drop us an email!

Sincerely,

Eric Foley
Visions Photography
