I never married, well the traditional way. Both times, yes 2x (the 2nd is the keeper), were in or in front of a court house. Couldn't afford a big wedding, and didn't know enough people. Couldn't afford a small wedding and my husband couldn't attend... long story.
My best friend Trish is getting married to her Beau and I've been more intuned with all things wedding. Girls somehow are predisposed to thinking of their wedding day eventually, even if it's the day before - but I don't know if I'd still want one if I could or dare I say a traditional one.
Traditional?
You know, black tux or suit and white dress, and flower girls, and blah blah blah. Nah, I think I would want something comfortable and less traditional, I'd like to break the quo and do something fabulous.
I found this website off my cousins website. And this picture says it best when it comes to going beyond the traditional wear and decor -Source
And that is what wedding planners can bring to a wedding and reception. Something that is really hard for most of us to do, especially to think outside the box when it comes to our own events. I know it may seem like the wedding planner can be really expensive, but when it comes down to it - they tend to work with you on pricing considering they will still get paid. You might not have a lavish and lux wedding for a budget minded bride, but I guarantee it will be original and well worth the time and effort and reputation of the hired professional.
Think outside the box; white dress? black suit? bouquet? photographs?? Be creative, and really express who you are the day of your wedding, it will be yours to seize.
Speaking of photographs, have you ever wished you could retake your bridal pictures? Maybe you couldn't get the poses or pictures you wanted? Maybe you didn't really like the photographer you hired, but he/she fit your budget? I'm opening the opportunity to redo your wedding photos in September 2008. You and your hubby are welcome to don your wedding gear and take some relaxed and less posed photos for the low low session price of free! That's right kids, free sessions still going on during the 2008 year. Don't miss the chance to get your pictures taken again!!
Happy Weekend!

More pictures!
I've got them, I really do! I just have to unwind from all the moving. We're officially not renters anymore! We moved out and moved in and now I can move all my stuff around in my little SoHo loft, well I'm calling it that anyway (smirk) so that I can start whipping out awesome post prod images!
Did I mention you guys rock. Seriously.
Ciao.
PS Music is my life... other life... second life???

Could these two be cuter? This couple are awesome to work with! They were up for anything and though we didn't break any boundaries, we certainly will be going further and further at our next sessions!! Take a look, it was such a gorgeous day outside, thankfully it didn't rain until this evening. Perfect image editing weather, drizzly and thundering - gimme a cup-a-joe and my Mac and all is well with the world.
Thanks guys, for letting me be part of your day!
Enjoy!!

I like to listen to my voice. I don't know why, I think because I have a lisp that I can only hear when I listen to my recorded voice.
I have a photosession with a client who happens to be a friend as well and I must have listened to the message 3 times before I just had to hang up. Trying to catch that lisp.
I have always been one that has to be different from everyone else,; I have a different name, I've been to different countries, I've done different things, different hair, and the most unique thing is my lisp. It isn't a front lisp, the kind if I am really enthused could shower you with spit and lunch, it is a side lisp. Oh, and I'm dyslexic. Oh, and I have a stutter when I get really excited.... wow I'm sharing a lot.
So excited about Sunday! Will hopefully post ASAP I got some lenses to try out and still learning to use them. Plus my friend and I are garage sailing tomorrow to find some things to use for props. She's going to model for me for another session, but she's a night owl, so it may be me on my own :)
Have a great weekend!
