“it’s my life”

I just got done a few hours ago shooting Lien & David’s incredible November wedding and now I am about to pack for an incredibly long flight to the motherland! Ever since my first trip to Europe in 2006, I have caught a serious case of the travel bug and now I try to travel as much as I humanly possible. Last year, I went down under to Australia and now I am going somewhere I have been wanting to go my whole life – Vietnam!!! I am the youngest in my Phamily and the only one born in the United States, so I’m eager to meet my relatives who are still over there and see how life started for the Phams. I am ready for my Asia adventure and can’t wait to immerse myself in the history and culture of my people! Well not quite that ready…I still have to pack and my flight is 8 hours away! Actually I still have yet to unpack from my last trip to the Caribbean!

On that note, I will be gone for 3 whole weeks and unfortunately will not be able to return any emails or phone calls until December 10, 2009.

Please check back in soon because I will have SO much to share! Here’s a sneak peek of one of the many wonderful things to come :)

“all at sea”

Somebody pleeaaase pinch me because I feel like I’m in a really amazing dream! I am leaving today for another major trip and this time it has me going to gorgeous San Juan, Puerto Rico! From there, I will be embarking on the beautiful SeaDream Yacht to shoot Kim & Adam’s amaaaazing Caribbean wedding!!!! We will be traveling from San Juan to St. John and then St. Thomas! Seriously, I still can’t believe I’ve been given this incredible opportunity! I guess those swimming lessons might come in handy after all ;) . And no I cannot fully swim yet and so yes I will be paying attention to the life vest lessons on the yacht very closely :) .

Please keep in mind while I would love to be answering your phone calls or checking emails while standing on the sandy beaches of St. Thomas, I will be unable to do so as there is no cell phone or internet service. I know, I was really hoping to do some work instead of work on my golden tan :) . *Sigh*…it’s a tough life but I will live it for all of us :) .  I have always been a team player :) . As such, I will not be able to respond to messages until Monday, November 16, 2009.

And if you are more of a visual person, I will be on board this big beauty:

AND I have an even BIGGER trip planned for this month…stay tuned more more exciting details!

“from this moment on”

A few weekends ago, I traveled to our lovely state capitol of Sacramento to shoot My & James beautiful September wedding.  I love the opportunity to travel anywhere and everywhere to shoot.  It’s combining two of my passions!  I had never been to Sacramento before and was in awe of how beautiful the Capitol building is.  It really surpassed my expectations and so did My & James’ amazing wedding!  I must say though nature did provide a few “challenges”.  If sweating in my “all black” uniform during My & James’ gorgeous ceremony on a measly 105 degree day in Capitol Park wasn’t enough, I then managed to step in dog doo-doo while “getting the shot”.  I know – I am such a dedicated photographer, right?! My wonderful assistant, David Do came to my rescue by taking photos of my poopy shoe and then proceeded to point and laugh.  I’m telling you – good help is hard to find these days :P . And no I will not be posting any photos of the poopy shoe!  All in all, it was a great day and the poop eventually washed out :) .  And to prove how great it was, I created this massive blog post from their big day.  And don’t forget to watch their wedding SLIDESHOW right after!!!!
