Originally, Luke and I had planned to take the girls to Honolulu this weekend as a last hurrah before school starts. Everything starts so early in Williams - the girls have to be back by Wednesday the 11th. So it sounded like a fun (slightly inexpensive) weekend getaway. That was until we found out that we were pregnant a couple weeks ago. ( Read more... )

Now I have a crush on orange heels! Great! It's not like I didn't have enough choices when it came to the blue heels... I'm totally diggin the orange:

Ton, Melissa and I went shopping for bridesmaid dresses on Saturday, only to be completely let down by what we found. I have to say that I believe finding my dress will be EASY compared to finding an elegant, affordable bridesmaid dress in the cut and color I want. David's Bridal has my color, but their selection of dresses is disgustingly ugly ( Read more... )

Just browsing this morning, and wanted to get an idea for shoes. Anyone who knows me also knows that I love COLOR, and this bride is not wearing white heels under my gorgeous dress! I have narrowed it down to blue or orange (blue being the obvious option to cover my "something blue"), but it's still so hard to find something worthy of wearing ( Read more... )

And how sad is it that I am almost 28 and still haven't been to Las Vegas? I booked our hotel tonight - $65 per night at the Sahara! Whoo hoo! I know the pictures will be gorgeous too - Danielle picked an awesome location, and it's LAS VEGAS. How could it not turn out well?! I am excited for sure ( Read more... )

I am trying to get a bunch of stuff done today because I am pretty busy this weekend. I am sorry to say that I won't be making any money, but I will be "working". Susan and I - along with another photographer - will be traveling down to San Jose in the morning for a Korean wedding. Susan will be the main photographer, of course, and we will be ( Read more... )

I thought my wedding contract was obnoxiously long and stuffed with every single possible thing that anyone could think of, but it seems I missed something ( Read more... )

Camille and George were such a great couple to shoot. I really enjoyed how upbeat and excited their whole wedding party was, too. I was also overwhelmed at the abundance of emotion from the two families - they were so happy, loving, and proud of the bride and groom. The ceremony and reception were both held at the Dante Club in Sacramento. ( Read more... )

Biggest wedding this season - Johanna and Marcus. 1503 pictures shot, need to edit down to about 600. Let's do this ( Read more... )
