It is an absolute DREAM of mine to go to Europe, and I finally have a chance, if you vote for me!! Jose Villa & Gene Higa are having a photography workshop in Italy this fall, and they are offering a scholarship to the workshop!! The criteria, was to create a 12 second video and mine made the top 4!! So PLEASE vote for me so I can go!!

Here is the link to vote, my video is number 2 – “take me to italy” (same video is shown in this post) – I would greatly appreciate it if you could vote for it, and spread the word! Voting ends Friday @ 5pm PST.

THANKS for all who have already voted and ALL your support! I <3 you guys!

So a little something to break up all the engagement session posts going on here – I am embarking on a new project! Last year, I posted a photo a day on this blog for a whole year. This year, I am going to instead take a Polaroid a day – for 365 days. I decided to do this since Polaroids are no longer going to be around anymore, and I’ve been hoarding packs of film like it’s going out of style. Polaroid film doesn’t last too long because of the emulsion in it – it actually dries up, so I might as well use them. :) And what a better way than to document everyday!

I will be posting my photos on a blog here, however I may not post them everyday (I will try though) – but be sure I will be photographing everyday. :) This is going to be a very personal project, something that I’m looking forward to collecting over the year, and seeing it all as one in an album or something of the sort.

So come join this new journey with me!

P.S. If you haven’t already heard, integral film (which is what I usually use) has plans of being saved! The Impossible Project plans on re-starting production for the film in 2010 – they have Polaroid’s old equiptment, and need our support. Um. YAY!!

I will be out of the office beginning Saturday November 22, until Sunday November 30. I’ll be pretty much be all over California, so if you need to reach me immediately, feel free to shoot me an email, otherwise I will return them after I get back. Till then, Happy Thanksgiving!

The holidays are just around the corner, so to ensure a timely delivery before Christmas, please place your PRINT ORDERS by Dec 1st!

Orders placed after the 1st cannot be guaranteed delivery by Dec 22nd! So get those orders in!

Yay! I was recently featured on the fabulously famous weddingbee blog! How fun! Thanks so much to Miss Sweet Tea for featuring me, I especially loved what she said:

“Her blog is one of my favorite vendor blogs because it doesn’t seem like a vendor blog. There are personal Polaroids, little thoughts, and of course, the requisite wedding porn. It’s almost like reading one of your girlfriends’ daily thoughts and musings, and I tell you, it’s addictive!”

Thank you again, and thank you so much for all my wonderful clients & readers (aka blog stalkers ;) ) for all the support! It keeps me motivated to post, knowing that so many of you enjoy it! :)

It’s that time of year again, time for vote for San Diego’s Best Photographer for the 10 News A*List! Voting ends TOMORROW (last minute, I know!), but it doesn’t hurt to vote! :D
