Okay, some more cool photos of Vivian and Patrick...

It's always nice when couples are willing to do crazy things to get a cool photo.  I almost expected to have these two laugh at me when I told them to get on top of this fountain!  Luckily, they didn't laugh, we only endured dozens of people staring at us like we were nuts... but, then, I've gotten used to that over the last couple of years :)

Beautiful Las Olas... I love living in South Florida.

My sister always says that what irritates her most in life is when electronics don't function, because their only purpose in existence is to do the job they were created to do.  With that being said, I had some major blog issues yesterday that kept me from putting up any photos... which irritated the snot out of me.  Luckily, this morning, I got online and everything magically started working again... which is nice.

So, back to Vivian and Patrick:
I am a sucker for flowers in the hair.  I don't know why I like it so much, but every time I show up to a wedding and the bride has flowers (especially orchids, my favorites!) ready to place in the 'do, I get all excited and snap a million photos of it:

The cool thing is that Vivian did not hold back!  She had three BIG orchids in her hair and it looked awesome in her beautiful thick black hair.  Another cool thing about this wedding is that Vivian wanted to wear both a traditional Chinese wedding gown and a white dress, so she had one dress for the wedding and another for part of the ceremony:

I loved all the beautiful gold jewelry

The intricate detail of the dress and the beautiful patterns etched into the gold bangles were so gorgeous... I want some awesome bracelets like that!  They are so ornate and I thought of how this photo is such a good example of blending cultures, the way she has on the dress and jewelry from China, along with her engagement and wedding ring in diamonds and platinum, in traditional Western custom.

I was going to start posting these yesterday, but it was Sunday and I was lazy, so I'll start today.

Okay, so, this starts the chronicling of Vivian and Patrick's wedding, with which I have to open with this photo, which still cracks me up:

When I was taking this photo, I asked Patrick to give me a "Check out my gorgeous bride!" face, and this was what I got- AWESOME!  I love this photo- it still makes me smile :)  Plus, who doesn't love when grooms wear their formal uniforms?!

Luckily for Sarah and Keith, at the time of our outing in Breckenridge, I had just purchased a super cool new lens and was still playing around with it and trying to get familiar with its awesomeness.  I happened to get it right just when this was happening:

I love the way they look they are in their own little piece of the universe... happy couples make me smile :)

I am a lucky girl:  this year I got the chance to travel like crazy throughout the country, giving me the opportunity to visit with some friends who have moved away.

Sarah hired me to shoot her wedding back in 2007 in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida.  A few months after that, she called me to let me know she was in town and we spent the fourth of July together at the beach sunning and enjoying the Florida sun.  We kept in touch after she moved away to my all time favorite state of Colorado, and I decided to pay her a visit.

Sarah, Keith and I spent a weekend enjoying the slopes of Breckenridge, Colorado.  After a day of boarding (for me, skiing for them), we went around town to take some photos of the two:

They are like Barbie and Ken, I know!  I'll put another up tomorrow!
