    I am a wedding photographer from South West Washington, serving Portland, OR metro area. I live in Battle Ground - a small town north from Vancouver, WA with my lovely wife and my two adorable sons. Photography has been my passion since I was little. I like photographing people, capturing great moments of their life. My main web site is theoleksandr.com. I am going to write here about all my weddings and engagement sessions as well as the other photography assignments. Clients should come back here after their weddings to check for sneak slide show previews. Also, I am going to write about new products, my life, music, etc. So, check it out to see what I have been up to lately.

Holiday Sale! Save up to 30% on printed products!

Posted by Oleksandr Havrylyuk on November 15, 2007

I am starting a huge sale of all printed products and holiday greeting cards. You can use coupon code 25OFF at checkout to get 25% off on regular and standout mounted prints. I have been working lately on introducing some new print sizes and products. Now you can order square prints, standout mounts and canvases. Canvases is a new product which is going on sale too. You can save up to 30% on these products.

So, go to your online gallery at http://clients.theoleksandr.com and start ordering today, to get them before Chrismas.

Standout mount. Standout is a thick lightweight board finished with a black plastic edge. Hanging holes on backside. Standout is available in two depths, 3/4” and and 1-1/2”, and nothing extra needs to be done to prepare for display.  

New! Gallery Wrap Canvas prints. Your image is printed larger then the final size, and the print is then wrapped around a thick wooden stretcher bar. Staples are on the back of the bar. Framing paper covers up the back of the bars, and metal hangers and bumpers are applied to the corners. The Gallery Wrap is ready to hang with no additional work needed. It is a great product which is getting very popular and allows you to turn your image into real art work.

With those finished mounted prints you don’t have to worry about where to find frame to fit your custom image size. You can order prints which are sized to fit entire image without any cropping. It is hard to find frames for them, since they are usually presized for images with different proportions. Standouts and canvases add totaly new look and feeling to your images. I had customers who ordered large standouts and they were super happy with them.

If you prefer you image to be framed, we offer some high quality frames. You can read more about them here.

Holiday Cards can be ordered from out online store.

All major credit cards are welcome!

Have a nice day!

Best Pastrami Sandwiches in Town

Posted by Oleksandr Havrylyuk on November 3, 2007

I had a chance to have a lunch today in newly opened restaurant Kenny & Zuke’s Delicatessen in downtown Portland. I have to tell you that they make the BEST pastrami sandwiches in town. As they say, their meet is cured 5 days, smoked 10 hours, steamed for 3 and hand-sliced just for you.  The sandwiches are huge with think slices of pastrami. I had pastrami reuben with potato salad, which wasn’t regular potato salad you may have had before. It was so gooood! They even have borscht, stuffed cabbage and blintzes.  They offer a large selection of wine, beer and they serve Stumptown coffee. The place is definitely worth of checking out!Sorry, no pictures this time. Maybe next time.Have a nice weekend!
