Today comes with a warning of sorts, so here it is: this posting contains a lot of photos. As much as we were in love with Florence, we felt the same about Montepulciano. It is everything you imagine and hope the depths of Tuscany to be. Located in the southern part of Tuscany, it is one of the many walled, …
Italy: A Love Story, Day Six
This was a bittersweet day, a day where we would be leaving our new found friends, Marco and Cristiana, and a day we would be traveling to the part of our trip I had been most anticipating. This day was the day we would be traveling further into Tuscany and making our way to Montepulciano where we would be staying …
Italy: A Love Story, Day Five
Today in Italy we had big plans. Today was the day we would be visiting the Duomo, the Galleria where we would see David, the David, and the Uffizi, aside from the Louve it is probably one of the most renowned art galleries in the world. Big day. Yet again, this trip was also about relaxing and we wanted to …
Italy: A Love Story, Day Four
I feel the need to start this post with a thorough apology for making everyone wait to find out about the rest of our trip. I’ve been insanely busy and will do my best to keep up with this. I’m terribly sorry! Now that that’s been said, here’s how day four began… As it was Sunday, we started our next …
Italy: A Love Story, Day Three
I think I need to start this post out by saying that I think this might have been one of my favorite days in Italy. This was our first morning in Florence and we woke up to this… I’m telling you Cristiana and Marco were the BEST hosts! After our wonderful breakfast and what would become one of my favorite …
Italy: A Love Story, Day Two
Unfortunately, not having slept as well as I had hoped, I actually discovered that I was sick with a bit of an intense cold and our time was all wonky, I still woke up to a beautiful morning in Mestre. We were staying just outside the main city of Venice and it was wonderfully quiet. The early morning birds had …
Italy: A Love Story, Day One
In a way I’m a little unsure how to start this story. I guess from the beginning, which is simply that I’ve dreamed of going to Italy my whole life. I really can’t tell you what had me so drawn in, but I’ve always loved Italian food, good Italian food, and the old houses and history and wrought iron and …
Will You Marry Me?
This is the exact question I asked Liz and Chad when I had finished working on their wedding photos. I am in love with these photos and I think I may be in love with Liz and Chad. I think you will be as well once you see these photos. The Dammarells are adorable, wonderful, fantastic and very in love. …
Your Day, Your Moments, Your Story
That’s my new tagline, I’ve decided. I like it. I needed to put an ad in the pamphlet for Brides and Basketball, a bridal show I will be a part of on the 1st of April at the Memorial Coliseum right before the Blazers battle it out with the Timberwolves. I would love to see you there, the show begins …
A Job Well Done
I think it’s pretty clear by now that I love weddings and everything associated with them. In the end, what I love best is the couple and all their little nuances and moments and the things that make them them. It’s my job to showcase that. If I accomplish that, I’ve done my job. But almost even better than new …
