Father and Son reunion
Positive Images by Rettberg
was formed in 1987 after splitting off from Bill Rettberg Photography which split off from Rettberg Brothers Photography in 1978.
Confusing?
In that time, my father Bill Rettberg and I have been in the same venue only once shooting seperate weddings, and that was in 1990 at Martin's East on Pulaski Highway.
That is until September 5 of 2010, when again a Martin's facility, this time the Valley Mansion in Cockeysville, had us cross paths.
There was a Greek wedding going on next to mine, and since he does more Greek affairs than anyone I know, I figured the odds were good that he might be shooting it,
Sure enough it was him.
Not one to pass up an opportunity for a good blog piece, I had my wife Robin, who was working with me, immortalize the auspicious occasion.
It may never happen again, but a little piece of family history fell into place Sunday night.
Our combined years as professional photographers totals 105 Years!
There is no one in the region that can top that, and I dare say it would be tough to beat anywhere in the country for any two wedding photographers.

K&B Bridals and Event Planning
Positive Images by Rettberg has dealt with many bridal shops over the years, but has found none with the high energy and single minded purpose of pleasing their clients like K&B Bridals.
http://www.kandbbridalsandeventplanning.com/ .
Kara Brown[on left] and Bridget Nussle have formed a dynamic partnership focusing on giving the future bride and her family and friends an experience that will make the process of designing a wedding, and/or selecting that perfect gown as exciting an event as the wedding day itself.
Opened at the beginning of 2010, Bridget and Kara sought a location on Main Street in Bel Air,in a vibrant revitalized area of town, appealing to brides of all budgets seeking help in putting all of the elements of a successful wedding together.
Bridget first met Kara while interning with her at another bridal shop.When Kara left to begin piecing her own business together, she sought out Bridget, having realized the great organizational, and networking skills that Bridget would bring to any endeavor.
They complement each other very well, and are both fiercely client driven.
When a prospective bride calls for an appointment at K&B, she is about to be spoiled beyond her wildest expectations. The client has use of a 10x12 bridal suite for both her, and those attending with her. Light refreshments, and even samples of wedding cake from local vendors are available.
Bridget and Kara treat each client as an individual, educating them on colors, fittings, accessories, and a myriad of other details that encompass the wedding day planning. Choosing the right gown is not always an easy process, and the ladies at K&B are honest with their clients as to what will look best for them. With a top range of $1,500 for a bridal gown, K&B offers a boutique experience at affordable prices.
Even if a bride winds up going elsewhere for her gown, Bridget and Kara know that they have taught that client what to expect from a truly professional bridal shop.
It is best to call for an appointment to enjoy the individualized care that K&B offers, but walk ins are welcome.
No one is ignored, but if the staff is too busy, clients are asked to fill out a gown appointment questionnaire, so that K&B can contact the client for their own fitting and, if desired, their event planning session.On special occasions, Kara or Bridget will accommodate clients during non business hours, proving that their interest in the bride stretches far beyond a 9-5 world.
No matter where you are in the metropolitan area, it is worth a visit to K&B to experience what it means to be treated as wonderfully as you are feeling about the upcoming wedding itself.
K&B Bridals and Event Planning is located at 54 North Main Street, Bel Air Md. 21014.
Their phone number is 410-838-1135.

Loss of a friend
Positive Images by Rettberg expresses deep regret at the passing of Gordon Wilz, accountant and friend of Bill Rettberg
for over 35 years.
Gordon was quite a character, and a passionate fan of Civil War history, and like Bill, a railroad enthusiast.
This is goodbye to an old friend. I'll miss you both personally and professionally. I am glad that your suffering is over, and hope that you are in a better place. RIP.

Wedding411 on demand commercial
On Wednesday July 28, Positive Images by Rettberg, Baltimore wedding photographer, did its first foray into the world of television advertising. Bill Rettberg, and Robin Sommer were interviewed by former Miss Maryland Brooke Stevens, an absolutely beautiful and talented young lady.
The production team of videographer Todd Sacks of ToJo Professional Video Production Services, http://www.tojovideo.com/ , and Larry Bridge, well known videographer, and production director for the shoot. Also attending was Jay Buck, managing partner with http://www.wedding411ondemand.com/
Shoot lasted about 2 hours, and was a blast. Everyone made our participation stress free and fun.
Wedding411 on Demand airs on Comcast Cable channel 888, and is a new venture designed to inform and educate the future bride on quality vendors in all aspects of the wedding industry.
Positive Images by Rettberg truly believes that the combination of website/cable/socialnetworking is the future of marketing for all professionals seeking the most direct route to wedding clients.
The program is now running, and Positive Images by Rettberg will go on air in November 2010, and run thru January 2011. In a couple of weeks, the spot will be featured on http://www.wedding411ondemand.com/ .
We're excited about it!
Let us know what you think.
