So, big news to announce today. Some of you that follow my professional photography page may have already heard this information, but I wanted to share here as well.
I have booked a wedding for September of this year in Japan. I will be flying out there and staying for a week to sight see and experience everything I can in the time I have. Words cannot express how excited I am. It will definitely be an INCREDIBLE experience and I can't even fathom the wedding pictures. Talk about a photographer's dream! I have never ever been outside of North America, let alone Asia!!!
As a tribute to this news, I thought I would note my newest blog obsession (thanks to StevenAndrew for linking her)! Katie of Curating Cuteness is my newest obsession. She photographs life in Taiwan in such a unique way. I sit and marvel over everything posted! This girl has EXTREME talent and anyone interested in film photography should definitely take a look.
Love the last pic!

Japan sounds awesome! Congratulations on booking that wedding! That sounds like such an opportunity, and I'm sure you will be able to experience all kinds of things, as well as be part of someone's big day.
And you mentioned Katie! I love Katie. I bought a ring from her last summer ... have you ever visited her shop? She features lots of fabric things, and has recently gotten into crocheting.
