Lunch with Rachel!

I love meeting up with other photographers! Last week I got to hang out with Rachel Priddy. I love her work and she is so awesome too! We knew each other a bit from a wedding photographers forum we're both on and we keep seeing each other at our photography meetings but I have such a crazy schedule it's taken us nearly two months to finally sit down with each other!!



Now we're going to make it a habit! We had such a great time talking with each other, having a wine flight and cheese fondue (yum!) Kazimierez is such a laid back place- I love it!! Can't wait to hook up again with you Rachel! :0)

Birthday Bash!

But not mine!!! :0)

My best friend Carol just turned a year older than me!! (ok, ok seven months!) Believe it or not I've known her since the first grade!!! She still remembers the elephant shirt I wore the day we met... I do miss that shirt! :0P
The funny thing is that my last post was saying how I needed to check out Trader Vics and that's where she chose to start out!

The bartender was giving me some strange looks when I started photographing the drinks! But yuuummmm... :0)



So we decided to stay around Old Town Scottsdale and walked over-


to the Blue Moose!!


where I ummm... photographed some more drinks!


Then we headed to Patty's for some tunes and pool! When I go out with my friends I never want to bring to much camera stuff, it gets pretty cumbersome. So I'm always experimenting with my equipment. All of these were taken without flash and my 5D did awesome.

I really like this one how Gip is practically faceless in it. It wouldn't be the same if I used flash



Happy Birthday Carol!!! :0)

Michele and Sergio's wedding at the Hotel Valley Ho!

Here I go again posting far too many images!!! Michele & Sergio's wedding was awesome and I'm going to let the images do the talking! (mostly!) :0)

The girls got ready at the Hotel Valley Ho. If you haven't seen it, you should check it out! Stop in for lunch or a drink after work at Trader Vic's- so fun!







Then we hopped on a Scottsdale Trolley for a ride in style to the ceremony at the Desert Botanical Garden.

Here's a quick shot of Michele just before her walk down the isle!


Isn't this flower girl simply adorable!!!


The girl on the end hamming it up is the best man!



I think I'm just beginning to realize it that I'm a sucker for these beautifully personal toasts. I just love the emotion!




And a few of the newlyweds at their reception



Sergio even got up with the band and sung a song he wrote for Michele. It was so cool!


And this image- pure joy!
