a wedding

I am asked often if I photograph weddings.  The answer has always been and still is “no”.  I have done some creative work to supplement friends’ weddings but I’ve never wanted to commit to the full roll of THE photographer.  It’s a lot of pressure not to mention a lot of work on the post production side.  I do, however, really love doing the detail shots and especially portraits of the bride.  I could actually get used to this,  and of course if I could request them all being destination weddings that wouldn’t hurt either. 🙂  I spent this past weekend in Rio Grande, Puerto Rico celebrating the marriage of two very good friends.  It was the first time ever that my travel plans were thwarted by inclement weather.  The day we were scheduled to fly out we woke up to no power and a blizzard outside.  Fun stuff.  Yeah, not really.  We did finally make it down to PR during the wee-hours of Friday morning and got some shut eye before starting our “busy” day of lounging by the pool, sipping cocktails, and jumping waves in the ocean.   Saturday was like any other day to Wendy.  Never have I known such a laid back bride.  But that’s just her personality–full of positivity and light.  Come to think of it, in all the 10 years that I’ve known her I don’t think I’ve ever seen her unhappy or without a smile.  It’s contagious.  Congrats to you both!  xoxoxo
