Los Angeles Photography - Modern Weddings & Lifestyle Editorials

May 21st, 2008

This morning I flew out on the first ever JetBlue flight from Burbank to DC. I have flown between Long Beach & Dulles at least 20 times in the past 3 years and the 45+ minute (without traffic) drive can get really old after a while. Ask Gary since he gets to do the chauffeuring. Even at 6:30am, I think he was okay with the new 10 minute commute to the airport. So now I’m back in DC for a 10 day stint and to shoot 2 weddings and attend a bridal shower thrown in my honor on Saturday. As many showers as I’ve thrown and attended, it all feels sort of weird when it’s for you. I’ll be sure to post some pictures…check back soon.

I know, I know, I have been totally MIA lately but really I do have some excuses. Instead of boring you with those though, I figured I’d just catch everyone up on the recent, current & future schedule. Here I go:

December 24th - flew from LA to DC
December 25th - celebrated Xmas with Gary, my dad, Lauren & Jimmy
December 26th - drove from DC to NJ to visit Gary’s parents
December 27th - I bought myself a new loaded MacBook Pro laptop for Xmas & because my accountant says I have to spend money before the end of the year. It is also my brother Michael’s 40th birthday. I freak out since I am a decade younger. Gary starts singing “30 turtle doves” to me in honor of the looming 3-0 in 2008.
December 28th (today) - Gary & I drove from NJ to NYC, check into the Maritime Hotel & then go visit fabulous author, Sue Shapiro for conversation & wine. :)
Here is our room at the Maritime, it feels exactly like a state room on a boat, so cool!

Now that I’m back in town (Fairfax that is, not LA) from Puerto Rico, I’m finally able to catch up on my blogging. The first thing I should share are a few images I shot as a guest at Jenny & Rob’s wedding. I can’t tell you how wonderful it was to have the day off and to just grab my camera whenever I felt like it. I have lots of stories from the weekend, like the 5 hours I spent playing black-jack one night, and then there was that roller coaster thingy that we had to ride to get to our room but I’ll talk about those tomorrow. For now, here are some images from Jenny & Rob’s beautiful wedding…
Gorgeous, right?

This is Payton, also known as Paypay, I am her “fairy godmother”. I think I must be awfully boring because she passes out every time I hold her. Anyway, she was the most popular baby around and got passed around an awful lot on this trip. Poor girl was sick too.

The girls…me, Erin, Mary, Katie (and Ashley who currently resides in Katie’s growing bump)
