15 Things Your Wedding Photographer Won't Say, but Maybe Kinda Wishes You Knew...

15 Things Your Wedding Photographer Won't Say, but Maybe Kinda Wishes You Knew...

Look at them go! Like, literally... 😁 Yep, that's my sense of humor in a nutshell lol 😂

Oh hello there peekaboo tattoo!! Didn't even notice that sneaky little thing till today. I've been so tempered to get a little script H.N. tattooed on the inside of my right wrist!! It's my grandma Helena's initials, engraved on the inside of her rose gold wedding band she gave to me a couple years ago. It was a moment that choked me up. She and I have always been very close and she's my hero. And, though the ring doesn't exactly fit, I'd love to preserve those initials somehow, so they are always close to me, my grandma always with me... I've also been trying to find a way I can either wear that band or make it into something timeless that I'll always want to wear and never lose... No idea's ever good enough, so the band stays in the safe until I come up with something brilliant. Meantime, the tattoo thought keeps popping up...

It's that much better when it's Palm Sunday and you can see palm trees out the window. Doesn't quite have the same effect when it's snowing. ;) Happy Palm Sunday!! 🌴😁

Part business part vacay, it's been amazing to get a break from the cold, and spend evenings in good company and good conversation - explaining to grandma the indescribable joys of mushroom picking in Poland, while we shared some pics from the last forest loot, hearing all about her upcoming river cruise, and first years of teaching, and other fun nuggets, while also getting her addicted to Hawaii-five-O 😁 🎥 🍿

Friday forecast "Snow showers in the morning will give way to a mixture of rain and snow in the afternoon. High 37F. Winds SSW at 10 to 15 mph. Chance of precip 60%." Brought to you by KSTP. It's April people lol 😂 Is 35 too young to be going 'snowbird'? 😜

One of those simple landscape travel photos from Sicily that always makes me 'feel' when I look at it. Funny thing, Cefalu wasn't even in the plans, Tauromino ended up being too touristy for our taste, crammed over population limit with some summit in place, and we decided to bow out early before we crashed into something or ran someone over by accident... Cefalù was a welcomed respite. Still a bit touristy, with a populated beach area, but a smaller, slower, more vacation speed pace. We hiked to the very top of the tallest hill-top anyone has ever climbed in driving loafers 👞 (that'd be David 😜). And let's just say the temple of Diana (dating something like circa 800 BC), and the city sights from the top was so worth fearing for our life ever step since there were no rails and a good slip could send us parasailing downward, loafer and flip-flop hand in hand. ⠀
We ended up totally by chance finding the coolest place to stay (we googled hotels in the area having struck out on Airbnb), and found a 5 star hotel #relaissantaanastasia @abbaziasantanastasia that was a dream! An abbey converted into a high-end hotel that could basically host a wedding of my dreams! 🤤 If time travel were possible, this is where I'd be getting married...
