Fly Fishing and Ohio, again!


If you would have asked me a few years ago if I would spend my weekends off in Ohio, or even go there for that matter, you might have been greeted with 'Are you nuts?' Well, love can do funny things to a person... like send them to Ohio twice in one month! My boyfriend and I drove (DROVE!) to Ohio where he will finish up a construction program he is in. He will be staying there for 9 long months, and I must of course return to Miami. However, even though it was a somber trip, we did manage to have some fun and enjoy the great weather...

He did his best to teach me to fly fish, and after about 10 minutes I decided I better stick to taking pictures.. here they are:

We also checked out the Fleishman's Estate (as in the people that invented margarine), now called Greenacres. It is beautiful and old and just opened to the public. Recently, Chad's parents were at a wedding reception held there (their first one)- What a gorgeous place for a wedding! Maybe I will start shooting in Ohio... hmmm...

As always great to get out of dodge, back in Miami now.... Looking forward to cooler weather!

Kiss and Show it!

Party Party!! Last night was the Kiss and Showit Bash for everyone here at PartnerCon in Los Angeles. Super Fun!!! Some free booze, dancing girls, and yes, a photo booth!! I love photo booth! Every wedding I shoot is now required to have one... (well not exactly, but would be cool right?). I think that I when I hit the lottery I will get three of them and put them all over my house....

Was a great party, we sported our Kiss hats (they did ensure free drinks).
Here we are (Sara, Myself, Liana, and Nicole)

Kevin Swan and the Girls!

KISS

And they had the coolest dancer, she did her whole routine with a hula hop. Sounds strange, but actually was pretty hot. I think that Britney Spears should give it a try.....

Welcome to Los Angeles!!!

After waking up very early, we (Nicole Kent & I) boarded a plane in Fort Lauderdale to Los Angeles to go to Pictage Partner Conference. It is my first conference and I am so excited to experience it as well as help out Liana Lehman, (who we just spent time with at Photo Biz Bootcamp in Atlanta).

After such an easy trip, we arrived at the hotel ready to go. We got the booth set up and started to see swarms of photographers in the hotel (somehow they all have a look!). I have already meet so many great people and spent the afternoon catching up on Liana's educational DVD's so I knew what to talk about today, and learn a thing or too!
We got our booth ready, I have already listened to a speaker, gotten completely motivated, and realized again how much I enjoy this type of stuff. I am on information overload, again... ahhhh!!
It is a great thing though!

Here Nicole and I are at our booth...

Ohio

Got to spend this last weekend in Cincinnati with my boyfriend Chad and his family. Was great to get out of humidity for a little fall like weather. They have so many trees, rivers and it is completely unlike Miami. Even took the dogs swimming!!

This is Burton, who couldn't quite figure out what the camera was doing, and if he should eat it or not...

Tucker, the OCD Border Collie that stares at Aquariums for hours on end.. (I wish I was that cheaply entertained!)
He can be a little intense, but when it comes to retrieving and watersports he is always game...

Stock's BMW, a little racecar, and so fun to ride in!!

All in all was great, but back to the heat for me!!

Austin &Angela

I went to Cincinnati with Chad to go be a GUEST at the wedding of Austin &Angela. I must say that it was so fun to actually watch a wedding! It was a great wedding, and Austin &Angela have an amazing connection that could be felt by everyone.. Though I was a guest, I couldn't help but grab a couple shots. Here are a few samples...

I need to pick one that will be framed as their wedding present. Let me know what you guys think..
