Happy 4th of July weekend folks. What a way to start off the hottest month of the year! I’m off to Newport, RI to meet and photograph Charu and Tony’s wedding at Castle Hill Inn. Big, big thanks to Rebecka and Michael of Visual Masterpiece for referring me to this couple, looking forward to working with your team this Saturday!

It’s my first time shooting a wedding on the East Coast and I couldn’t be more stoked. Rumor has it that Tony is going to ride to the ceremony on a horse and then they’re going to dance Bollywood style (you know how much I LOVE Indian weddings!). Time travel may not be possible yet but timezone traveling is (more on that later). Have a blast during this long holiday weekend, and always remember to stay safe!

Hello world! I won’t have an international data or cellular plan on my iPhone for this trip, so phone calls and e-mail responses might be a bit slow. Well, that plus shooting Jeanette and Rob’s wedding and day-after portrait session :).

If you do call and it goes straight to voicemail, please leave a message and I’ll call you back asap (most likely from my Skype account). Thanks for your patience, and I promise this trip is all work and no play ;).

And one of my favorite portraits of Lisa and Richard from earlier today:

Quick trip out to Richmond, VA for an e-session, be back Wednesday afternoon. Looking forward to finally talking to/meeting Michelle and Jonathan! In the mean time, here’s a sneak peek of Justtini and Karina’s wedding from yesterday:

and Anjali and Mohsin’s e-session from earlier today:

She said I think I’ll go to Boston
I think I’ll start a new life
I think I’ll start it over
Where no one knows my name

I’ll get out of California
I’m tired of the weather
I think I’ll get a lover
And fly ‘em out to Spain
