    Why yes I did shoot a wedding 9 months pregnant… Will & Jamie sneak peek!

    yes indeed, I am that hardcore lol, I shot a wedding just a few weeks back.

    But when you have known the bride since she was 4 years old, and the groom is nothing short of her price charming you just have to. :)

    Also I was assisted by the lovely, amazing & talented Maricar Lianne, I could not have done it with out her! Some of the images you see in the slideshow were shot by her.

    I could go on and one about how wonderful Jaime and William are, but I am about to pop out a baby so I will just show off some of my favorite photos from their big day instead.

    Here are a select few, much more in the slideshow below.

    I do have to warn you this slideshow is insanely long, I could not help but include WAY too many photos. :)

    decorating my dining room for Haiti

    Last month I had the privilege of participating in an auction put on by some ridiculously talented photographers.

    The website “Switch Cities“  is run by an eclectic group of wedding photographers from all over the world. A few of them met in a photographer’s forum I used to regularly check into so I have been a fan for a little while. They do some great modern scenic work that is really inspirational to this girl who has little to no talent for landscapes. Well last month the Switch Cities twitter stream was all a flutter about an auction for Haiti, it started small, but soon grew into an amazing fun raiser! The end result of two different auctions was over 4K as far as I understand. These folks did some great work, and I was lucky enough to have the winning bid for an absolutely beautiful 16 x 24 canvas of Seattle by the lovely and talented Gabe of Gabriel Boone Photography.

    Check it out.

    We had been searching for the perfect print for our new dining room for some time, and the color was dead on with the warm grey I picked out. And of course it was for a great cause!

    Piece by piece will will get this new place put together!

    because I am curious…

    Way back a million years ago when I was planning my own wedding online wedding blogs & planning sites were still just starting out.

    Some were helpful, some were dreadful. It seems in the last 8 years (gulp has it been that long!) so much has changed. The resources online are overwhelmingly amazing. As a wedding addict… err I mean vendor, I try and keep up and see what my couples are reading.

    So I thought I would ask, what are your favorites?

    I have a few local blogs & planning sites I love. I also adore it when former clients blog! And then there are they  national sites that have some pretty amazing visual and creative inspiration.

    Then there are the review sites… I have posted previously on Yelp with great results (thank you lovely former & current clients!)

    Just one…

    This past Sunday I had my first wedding of 2010! And my last wedding before my maternity leave & birth of my little boy in just a few short weeks. It was a momentous one for sure. Jamie & Will put on an amazing event. I will have lots of photos for the blog soon, but I could not help but post just one today.

    So much more to come…
