David's Bridal

















Last night, I was invited by Chheavy Puth of Absolute Weddings & Events to participate in a David's Bridal bridal fair.  I had such a great time.  Kami and Brandon Storz of Sound Image Entertainment did a fantastic job in getting the crowd dancing.  It was so funny seeing brides who were trying on dresses along with their friends getting down and dancing.  

It was a nice surprise to see Beth Anderson of Anderson Hair Design there.  We both participated on a wedding fashion shoot a few months ago.  She did  a fantastic job on the model's hair.  Also, there was Mike Jensen of Jensen Video, Stefanie Smith of Galeazi's Floral Design, make up by Definition,  Rev. RoxAnn Conley of Marriage Minister (she was the one with the whip),  favors by Teresa Higgins of Capital Confections, (she's the one with the yummy home-made truffles),  Robert of Aloha Limousine, and linens by America's Party Rentals.

There were raffle prices galore.  I was happy to give out a Boudoir Session to a very happy recipient.

Sacred City Roller Derby
















Saturday, I was invited to attend a roller derby game in Roseville.   The team asked me to come and watch the game and photograph some of the action.  I had two tickets so my son came along with me.  Both of us thought that it would be hard to follow because we have never seen a game before.  But, it was actually  not that bad.  I few women had to be helped out because of an injury.  I asked my son, can you imagine your mom going out there doing that?   He gave a big sarcastic grin.  First,  I would need to learn how to roller skate.   I know a few of the girls on the team.  There was Shadow, Cherry, Pink and Atilla.  I can't wait to meet the rest of the team.  I am so excited that I will photographing the girls individual portraits in the near future.  My work is so much fun.  Earlier in the day, I was photographing a boudoir (soft and feminine) and in the evening I was photographing strong and determined women.  Love it!
