The blog has moved...

You've reached my old blog... In order to simplify my blog, my portfolio and my life, I combined my blog and site into one. Now you can find my "blog" entries on my Recent Work page. You can also view my portfolio, link to slideshows and client information, and locate anything else you might need all in one place.

This blog contains old session blog posts, and my failed 2011 attempt at "One Image a Day" project in which I force myself to shoot something each day, personal or professional, as a challenge to myself. I'd love to hear what you think of the images as they might slightly stray from the norm. We'll see if I can pick it up for 2012!

July 26, 2010

Everyone who knows Monica and Todd understands what it means when they hear this phrase.   Monica and Todd just knew.  When they were 4, they vacationed together.   On Saturday, they said “I do” together.  They have been joined together since before they even knew any better.  And when an angel brought them back together, they understood volumes.

Amy Ro and I were beyond fortunate to be able to photograph this marriage of not only two people, but also their families.  Two families who have been linked together through time, fate, sorrow and joy.  Two families that are full of love, spirit and joy.  Two families that are now one.

There were a million moments during this day when people paused to honor those not with them, and those that were with them in spirit.  And a million looks, touches, hugs, whispers, shouts and laughs were exchanged to rejoice in the union.  It was extraordinary.

Monica and Todd, you are so loved.  But you know that.  Because you just knew.

A millions smiles, hugs and amazing thoughts from me to you as you continue building your lives together.  I am hopeful that I will be able to document more events in your life and happy to know that we will share wine and stories, and perhaps some golf lessons in our future.

XOXO
