Sweeeeeet idea!

So, my friends, Sarah and Nathan, whose wedding I am shooting in March, came up with an awesome idea to put their engagement photos together as a collage and insert it in their wedding invitation! So with their vision and my photoshop skills this is what we came up with. I am soooooo excited! It is so fun to see creative ideas come to life!

You know that you are doing what you love when

you get teary-eyed creating a slideshow! ;-) I photographed Sarah and Nathan this past weekend right before the rain hit and we went out and had a blast! I just love photographing people in love. Being able to look at the photos and see the love in their eyes is just amazing!!! Here are some of my favorites from the shoot. I can't wait to shoot your wedding Nathan and Sarah! You guys are awesome!!!

Photo talk!

This past week I met a ton of new friends at the Pictage User Group meeting. We talked about blogging and it's connection with our photo industry. I learned a ton of great stuff! We took a "girl pic" after the meeting. I don't know everyone's name, but had a great time meeting everyone!


Sara France came into town to speak at the PUG meeting so that afternoon Sara France, Anna Costa and I went out to lunch and had a great time talking about blogging, albums and just mostly photo business stuff. It is so funny, most the time I get together and hang out with other photographers we talk photo! And you know the best part? I never get tired of it! I am so lucky to do what I love!

The beach and good friends!

I love it when my friends come to visit from out of town. It reminds me how much I love living at the beach! We played around at the beach for a while, enjoyed the amazing sunset and then went to dinner at one of my favorite restaurants in town, Palazzio! It is such amazing Italian food.
