My Life As Of Today: August 2009

For the past 2yrs of being engaged, and approx. 1yr of wedding planning, my ideas & inspirations have taken a full rotation ( 360*). Starting with the decision of the color palette we were going for. It went from Slate Blue, to Bronze Brown, to Pink & Black, and maybe some other combo that I don't even remember. I finally decided on a combination, introduced it to Fi, he agreed, and we went from there. I would stick to it, and there would be no turning back!
So far, so good. Of course, there has been a few changes here and there. I can't help it! This beautiful world wide web has got me hooked into EVERYTHING & ANYTHING wedding related!
Which, I think it is totally normal for any girl that dreams about how their wedding day should feel & look like =)
I can't help but still want to buy every new wedding magazine that comes out, or look up beautiful gowns, pretty Bridesmaid dresses, unique wedding invitations, ect...
I absolutely, cannot STOP browsing and AWing every wedding photography I have come across with. They are filled with so much inspiration and creativity.
It wasn't until all this wedding madness started, that I was introduced to the Journalistic Style of Photography. I have fallen completely head~over~heels. The more I read, & see, the more hungry I get to learn and follow this giddy feeling inside me. I ask myself: "Where have you been all my life?" And then, I remember. Every night, I have asked God to light my path, and help me find something that will bring me happiness, to light my future, and to make me strong, & not give up.
I've always enjoyed photography, but never thought about pursuing it as a hobby, or even, as a possible career. I know I am not alone on this. I have read many, many photographers websites/blogs, and so many of them got into wedding photography right when or after planning their own wedding.
I know it is not easy. I know it will take so much to stand out, and find my own style. As a bride to be, I knew what I wanted in a photographer, and that's why we chose who we did.
I admire and look up to so many talented Photographers out there.
Their daily dose of blogging keep me grounded, and I know some of them where once in the shoes I am today. Maybe someday, I'll get to be in the shoes they get to wear Today.

105 days away from our wedding day....
You think Fi will be okay if we change the color combo One last time... ?? =)
I LOOoVE the Grey & the touch of color the pink & yellow bring!
Perfection!!
