Welcome to the photo blog... *finallogowhite25.jpg
Here's where I chat about photography (SURPRISE)...  weddings (of course)... helpful ideas I hear about...  and cool things I find along the way. 

Things you can expect from me...
    Laughter (I write how I talk if you haven't noticed.. :)
    Advice (I don't claim to be an expert...but I do claim to hear expert ideas and share them)
    Stories (but only good ones)
    Contests (gotta keep you guessing somehow..)
    Cheers (meaning good wishes to good people I meet)
    ... and a little bit bit of babbling (but hopefully always ending with a big laugh)

While this blog may not be perfect in color, shape, or words . . . I promise, it'll all be written from the heart! More than anything else... I hope that you have fun, get inspired, enjoy reading and maybe even gain a little knowledge along the way (that I'm not promising though)...  

I'm so glad you've somehow navigated your way here.  Now... don't forget to bookmark it..  and come back and visit again!! 

Love,
A





I had SOOO much fun at Rachael & Jordan's wedding...  not only was this couple ABSOLUTELY gorgeous outside... but inside too... truely... I cried not once not twice but FIVE times... I was so touched by the connection they had with their families (like when Rachael's mom was putting on her grandmother's earings)... to the connection then had with each other (like the looks they would constantly give each other)... to the connection they had with their amazing friends (you should have seen the slideshow their friends put together... awesome!!).

So for all the tearing up I did... there was just as much laughing (and dancing.. yes I couldn't help but dance a little while shooting pics on the dancefloor).. .EVERYONE was dancing...

and did I mention the OHIO loyalty in the room.. half the people at this wedding were from LA...  lived in LA... worked in LA... but with an even louder representation was teh OHIO contingency!!  They would hoot and holla' every time that little (but not quiet) state was mentioned!!

This wedding was the perfect match for me... a little bit Midwest, a little bit West Coast, a little bit of tears.. .and a whole lotta FUN!!!

Take a look at the slideshow and get a better feel for the day...

Seems like they have a lovely wedding. You take some excellent photos! I love Santa Barbara for a wedding; best place by far in California to do it! I was just there and had a great time too! Stayed at the Sandman Inn (www.thesandmaninn.com). So affordable and the location was the best; close to all the action SB has to offer.

These are some great photos! I love Santa Barbara; seems like the perfect place to have a wedding. I'm so excited to go back in a few months in the spring to enjoy all the fresh flowers and hike some trails. I'll be staying at the South Coast Inn (www.santa-barbara-hotel.com). So elegant and the perfect place to escape all of the chaos downtown.
