TRASHING THE DRESS ON WE TV!

I have a bit of exciting news to share this month!

One of our Trash the Dress sessions was chosen as a feature on Women's Entertainment Television's website! You know we all watch Platinum Weddings and Bridezillas so you can imagine it was a thrill to be contacted by them. It was great reminiscing about the Pick & Pull and that wild and crazy day in 90 degree heat with Kathi!

Yesterday, Today, and Tomorrow...

It's good to be back... 2009 has been a whirlwind of a new year since my last post in the Fall. I took some down time for an extended trip to Taiwan to visit my family, participated in Bay Area bridal shows, met some amazing new clients, and have even tackled some personal victories & important goals of mine! It's off to an exciting start to say the least... In between the girls and I have been shooting some of the most incredible engagement and wedding portrait sessions. We're back on track with the blog updates and will be posting regularly some of the current highlights, including some amazing Fall 2008 weddings. Stay tuned for the best of yesterday, today and tomorrow!

And the Winnders Are......
