Traveling has been a passion of mine since I got my first passport at 6 months old (no joke!) I sat on my moms lap and made gaga sounds at the photographer. I started traveling alone at age 6 to visit my Aunt in Missouri every Summer. I haven't stopped since. Where I go, my camera follows. I love experiencing new places and capturing each one in my own way.
Yay, UPS man is my new best friend! Today he brought me my very own 100mm 2.8 macro lens! I used my buddy Ian’s lens at Jenn and John’s wedding in New Jersey.
Since then, I just had to have one! Canon is having a phenomenal rebate, so if you are in the market (or need a cool Xmas gift) check out B&H Photo.
Looking forward to getting my first offical chance to use it at Laura and Brian’s wedding later this month!
On a personal note, Tim and I went to see a movie in Mira Mesa last night and outside the theatre there is a really gorgeous fountain. Tim pulled me over to the fountain, got down on one knee and presented me with a ring. So, we are offically engaged and now I get the tedious (just kidding) task of choosing a wedding photographer! haha 🙂
XOXO,
M
Congratulations! Let’s get planning! 🙂
Oh my goodness congratulations! A new lens is exciting… but a new ring… that’s even more exciting! Good luck planning!
awesome score on that prime lens! plus the 5D is full frame (right?) so you don’t have to worry about any magnification factors like some people (me :))…
but anywho, i just wanted to say it again, thanks so much for the amazing work and congrats on your engagement lady!
<3,
lauren
