Sarah & James - The Weddin'

This wedding was definitely among the most fun weddings I've ever been to.  On top of that, Sarah and James are such sweet and caring people that it made for the perfect day.  We had some rain in the morning, which ultimately worked to our benefit: it wasn't too hot, the gardens were lush, the light was soft and glowing, and we had a good excuse to take a couple of cute shots with umbrellas. :)

Enjoy!

Fearless

Wow.  It's been an interesting few days.  This weekend was great for me... personally and in terms of my photographic work.  I am so charged up right now - I CAN'T WAIT to get out there in shoot.  My path has become clearer and I feel that I am starting to have a stronger sense of how I'm different and how to make it work for me.  I feel like I took a giant step toward my future this weekend.

On top of that, I found out that I've been accepted to Fearless Photographers.  This site is a collection of wedding photographers from around the world, and you have to apply to be a member of this community.  Needless to say, I'm pretty excited about making the cut.  There are contests every few months and you can submit a handful of photos for each one.  Let's hope that one of these days I'll will a Fearless Award ;)

Lastly, I came across this quotation about art this past weekend and thought I'd share:

The act of making art exposes a society to itself.  Art brings things to light.  It illuminates us.  It sheds light on our lingering darkness.  It casts a beam into the heart of our own darkness and says, "See?"
