August 31, 2008

UPDATE:: Last week I had a chance to hang out w/ the one and only Becker. He did a mini-interview with me which I thought he was doing for fun. Then I find out that he actually posted it on his [b] school blog! Too funny. I’m really humbled and flattered. I look like a dork when I see myself but any ways, if you want to get a good laugh, go visit his blog here and leave him a nice comment!

::END UPDATE

I have some cool news! A while back I found out that my wedding photo spread will be featured in the Destination Weddings & Honeymoon Magazine. I was really excited about it from the beginning but I wanted to wait until it came out on the newsstand before I shared it with everyone. This wedding took place in the Paradise Island, Bahamas last year. Joe & Jina Chung comissioned me and my second shooter Tomas Flint to come out and help captured their memorable weekend. We had such blast at this wedding. I reunited with some old friends and made ton of new ones as well. From this wedding, I directly booked 2 more weddings: One in San Francisco (back in April) and another one back in the Bahamas again later on this year. My good friend & a very talented DJ – Roberto Monastero was also there mixing during reception – and the guests filled the dance floor right until the last song!

This was such an exciting opportunity for us and I’m thankful for everyone that helped make it possible. Since this was my very first feature in a nationally distributed magazine so I am delighted about what this feature might bring in the near future. A big thanks to my second shooter Tomas Flint who came out and worked tirelessly to capture some awesome moments. I also like to thank DWF’s editor in chief Susan Moynihan and their photo editor Diane Rice for selecting my wedding to be one (out of 4) to be featured in this amazing magazine!

Be sure to stop by your local bookstore (Borders or B&N) to check out the latest fall issue (p.58-59). I’ll be sure to post another wedding that will be featured in The Knot magazine in the upcoming future! Thanks everyone and have a great Labor Day Weekend!
