Hello from Sacramento!

Well, here I am now in Sacramento. I'm still enjoying my time in Cali which is quickly coming to an end. All too soon to say the least. Today I was able to get out and take portraits of Sarah out in Old Town Sacramento as well as the State Capital Park. It is definitely spring here in California and the flowers are blooming and gorgeous! So was Sarah however and while I may not have all my editing tools, I still wanted to throw you a few. Tomorrow it's off to WPPI in VEGAS!

Hello from Sunny California!

Yes, I know. I'm sorry. I've been leaving your hanging!

My last post mentions what I was about to to in the UK... well, since I've written that post I've done all those things, made it back to the US AND finished all my editing. All while playing with our new Kitty, Renoir.

Let me try and catch you up!

Malta was amazing! Absolutely amazing! I very much wish we had more time there, or could have seen more... but we did see a lot! The co-cathedral of St. John was amazing! A must see if in Valletta. St. Julian's bay, beautiful! Sliema, another great city! We saw a bit more but gosh, breathtaking! Our room faced the water and we had an amazing porch to sit on and enjoy the view. If you are ever there don't be afraid to order the table wine, it's always GOOD! Some people have asked me where Malta is... it's in the Mediterranean in between Africa and Sicily. I could go on and on about the wonders of Malta, their food, people, language, history... if you have ever seen Popeye or The Count of Monte Cristo they were filmed in Malta. Also lot's of greek mythology happened in "Malta." Much of the Odyssey and Iliad revolve around "Malta." I also heard just last night that someone thought they heard Malta was known as a possible site of the "Garden of Eden." I'll have to look that up but it's definitely a country worth checking out!

After returning from Malta my trip flew by too fast. I really wasn't ready to come back, I would live in London if I could. But, I did need to return, eventually ;-)

After a lot of "getting done" in Va Beach I flew out to San Francisco where I met my friend, her husband, and unborn child. They are such an adorable family and I can't wait to see their little daughter! I could have spent so much time in San Francisco but I came to Modesto to see another friend of mine from university. This is my first time out West! I've been to 27 states and 14 countries, but this is my first time west of Denver! I'm really enjoying my time in Cali! I love the no-humidity and in general it almost feels more like home in Texas than in Virginia. It's up to Sacramento tomorrow for some bridals in most likely a Vineyard and taking advantage of California's landscape, I'm very excited!

Saturday morning I fly to Vegas which is one of the "main" parts of this trip. WPPI, aka, Wedding and Portrait Photographers International!

I am so excited to be able to attend WPPI this year. I'm going to get to meet and learn from some of the most brilliant minds in wedding photography! On top of that, I get to hang out with 10,000 other photographers and finally meet so many of the people that I talk with on a daily basis online in forums and groups I'm a part of. AND on top of that, I even will get to see, touch, and learn about any product I could possibly offer you! Amazing

I'll probably just put together a huge slide show for you to see all of my trip to Europe, Cali, and Vegas... otherwise that post would be a mile long!
