Wedding Video: Becky + Jimmy

Becky and Jimmy had their wedding on October 18th, and I took pictures as guests. As their gift, I finally finished their music slideshow! My favorite saying is, "better late than never!" Enjoy :)

Gobble! Gobble!

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

Randy had a CRAZY idea to go shopping on Black Friday......anyone planning to do the same? I don't know if I want to fight with all the wild shoppers out there looking for a good deal! A petite girl like me might get stomped on and pushed around!!!

This is How I've been Feeling All Week...

*YAWN*

Sorry for my lack of blogging this week, I have an upcoming e-session with Sarah & Mark this Sunday......so stay tuned!

Happy Remembrance Day for Canadians

(Picture found on google search)

November 11th marks Remembrance day in Canada. It is the day we commemorate the sacrifices of those who fought during the First World War. When I think about this day, it brings back memories of elementary school when we wore a bright red poppy pin every year to show our appreciation to the brave soldiers that fought for our freedom. And I remember reciting with my classmates, "In Flander's Fields" by John McCrae.

In Flander's Fields

In Flander's fields the poppies blow

Between the crosses, row on row,

That mark our place; and in the sky

The larks, still bravely singing, fly

Scarce heard amid the guns below.

We are the dead. Short days ago

We lived, felt dawn, saw sunset glow,

Loved and were loved, and now we lie,

In Flander's fields.

Take up our quarrel with the foe:

To you from failing hands we throw

The torch; be yours to hold it high.

If ye break faith with us who die

We shall not sleep, though poppies grow

In Flander's fields

Wedding at the Four Seasons Hotel in San Francisco

Congratulations to our wonderful bride and groom! With meticulous planning, this couple organized a beautiful and elegant wedding in just 2 months! It was also my first time working with Valerie, their wedding day coordinator, and she did a terrific job as the day went smoothly as planned. Randy and I are so honored to photograph your special wedding day, and we really hope you'll enjoy your sneak previews :)

The day started with our gorgeous bride getting ready

Mother & daughter

The bride & groom decided to have their First Look photos done. This is a chance for the couple to see each other for the first time before the ceremony, and it was a good idea because I had plenty of time to photograph them.

After their First Look photos, we took pictures around the lobby at the Four Seasons Hotel

Then we headed back to the hotel suite for the tea ceremony


Then the ceremony started with the beautiful bride and her brother walking down the aisle






Husband & wife!




Each table had an exquisite arrangement of large white orchids




First dance

GO Obama!

Barack Obama made history! Hopefully there will be a lot of positive changes in the American economy with Obama in power :) It's amazing that we get to witness the first African American in office. He will definately provide a hope for change and open-mindedness for future generations.

Halloween 2008 costumes revealed...

This year, my best friend Nancy came up with the idea to dress up as a mime :) And Randy ended up as a Jamaican brotha! LOL

Our other good friend Joe recycled Randy's convict costume from last year, and his girlfriend Giovanna dressed up as a sexy sailor ;) It's always fun to play dress up during Halloween, and this year wasn't an exception!

Twin mimes :)
