Wow 2009 has come and gone and it’s already 2010 for me!!!  It’s past 4am, but I’m still up and I wanted to start off the new year with a blog post!

I went to the Han River with my cousins and uncle to shoot fireworks, but because it was so cold we were only there for about 15 minutes before we felt like our fingers and toes were going to fall off so we left and went to McDonalds!!!  My first meal of the year = McDonalds chocolate milkshake + french fries!  Most people make resolutions to lose weight and eat healthier, but we headed straight to McDonalds =P  (probably because it was the closest 24 hour place around us!)

I hope everyone back in the states has an amazing and safe new year!

This was my last wedding of 2009!!!  Angela + Sam had an amazingly beautiful fall wedding at the Ambassador Campus in Pasadena.  I absolutely fell in love with the Ambassador Campus!  It’s such a beautiful venue!!!

Having known Angela + Sam since college it’s been such a blessing to see their relationship blossom and I’m so thrilled they’re married!  This wedding was full of heartfelt moments and so much laughter.  I need to give both Angela + Sam major props because they were both really sick on their wedding day, but you can’t tell from the photos!  They were drinking cold medicine like juice and moments before the ceremony having to use throat spray so they can say their vows loud enough for others to hear!  I’m so happy for you guys and I wish the both of you much love and happiness in your marriage!

A big thank you to Louis Trinh for coming out to 2nd shoot for me! He captured a lot of beautiful images!!!

Hi Everyone! I’ve been in Korea for about a month now and I have a month left of my vacation! I’ve had quite the adventure so far! A few days after arriving I ended up getting swine flu!!! And most recently I ended up getting the stomach flu! How come it’s always when you travel you end up getting sick?! I was so careful about washing my hands, avoiding people who are coughing, taking my vitamins, etc etc etc. But I guess my immune system is horrible, or the fly is just a lot stronger in Korea!

Well in-between being sick I’ve been able to see a lot of cool things and even saw it snow twice!!!!! Since I didn’t update for so long there are SO MANY photos!!!! I thought it would be fun to mix it up and use Poladroids. This is the most awesome program ever! It’s completely free and it makes your photos look so fun! Enjoy my first month in Korea!

For those curious all these photos are a mix from my dslr, point & shoot, and blackberry! Yes my blackberry works in Korea and it’s so awesome!

Hello from Korea!  I hope everyone had an amazing Thanksgiving!  I’m here in Korea for vacation, but I’ve been working hard to get all my weddings edited so keep checking the blog because I have plenty of updates coming!!!

If I could describe Dara + Rohit’s wedding, I think I would choose to say it was like an adult children’s party!  The bright colors, balloons, fun activities, and casual setting made this wedding super memorable.  The day went smoothly and they got to spend a lot of time with their family and friends which was what they really wanted to do!  Thank you so much for letting me capture these moments for you.  And a huge thank you to Ian Lee for capturing some awesome moments as well!!!

Ian got this awesome pic of Dara getting ready

I just loved this angle Ian caught of the ring shot

So fun!!!!

My favorite!
