November 2007 Archive

Jon and Jenn were married in September at the lovely Handlery Hotel in Mission Valley.

It was a daytime wedding, and after the reception everyone was invited back to their parents house for the after party! What a great idea for a day wedding!

A family hankercheif, beaded bracelet from a neice and a medical tag (Jenn is a nurse!)

How cute were these flower girls?
And of course, the handsome ringbearer shouldn’t be left out!

Their family is very close, and very emotional!
Married!

Jon picked the cake out, Jenn never even saw it before today!

Father/Daughter Dance. I told you it was emotional!

This is probably one of my favorite shots of 2007:

Don’t forget about your Slideshow!!!

I’ve always loved Thanksgiving. Hanging out with cool family, eating awesome food and football during the week – what could be better than that!

I am so thankful for my family, my friends and my health. I hope all of you know how much I appreciate you even if I can’t find the words sometimes.

Last night, Tim and I stopped at KFC to grab a quick bite to eat. We were sitting in a booth enjoying our bisquits when two men walked in. I didn’t notice them since my back was to them but Tim was watching them the whole time.

When they parted ways Tim pointed out to me that one of the gentlemen was homeless and the other just bought him a hot meal. It warmed both of our hearts. We talked about how thoughtful that was and that more people should think that way on a daily basis.

After the meal, I went to wait in the car to make a phone call while Tim went back for another round of bisquits. From the car, I watched a different homeless man (I say man, but he couldn’t have been older than me) walk in the KFC to use the restroom.

Tim noticed him too, and while the man was in the bathroom, Tim ordered an extra meal for him. When he came out of the bathroom, Tim had it waiting for him. He was very thankful.

I hope everyone will find a random act of kindness to perform this holiday season and even after the holiday’s.

Happy Thanksgiving!!

We spent our last full day in Mexico exploring the town of Pozos. Its a town that basically became a ghost town, but is now rebuilding itself and becoming a tourist spot. Its known for its mines, which we had a little trouble finding and gave up! haha

Tim took this photo of a fake snake spitting out water!

Love the textures that Mexico has!
Another one for my Jen 🙂
My dad and mom at Casa Montana. A bed and breakfast we ate lunch at:
No camera tilt, the roads are that steep and all full of cobblestones!

I loved these lights in the bar!
One last super cool door!
It was a super fun vacation, we saw a lot but also got to relax and get away from normal life. Now its back to work, more wedding blogs coming soon!

XOXO,

I’m slowly playing catch up on wedding blogs! This wedding is from September 1, 2007. I spent the week in Chicago socializing with old Bradley friends. On the weekend I made the trek down to Leavenworth Indiana (near Kentucky!) to shoot the wedding of Ryan and Rachel.

Rachel and I have been friends for several years now and I feel so lucky to be chosen to photograph their most important day!

I love this window can you tell?

I don’t normally post formal shots, but this was too funny not to.

Waiting for his bride:
I love how happy couples always look coming back down the aisle:



My favorite shot of the night:

Thank you Ryan and Rachel for flying me out to shoot your happy day! I had a blast!

Your slideshow is waiting!
