Ben and Emily's Wedding

I had the privilege of photographing my friend Emily's wedding on Saturday.  She is a talented designer, and her whimsical touches were apparent in all the little details of the wedding.  I overheard throughout the day so many people commenting on this and that as being "so Emily."

This was my first time meeting Ben, but he was a natural in front of the camera.  In fact, I don't think he cared about the camera at all as his eyes were on Emily.  I couldn't stop grinning to myself at how HE was grinning whenever he would look at Emily.  It made my job so much easier.

826CHI Prom Part 2

OK, so yesterday was kind of a make-up anniversary day for Ted and me, so I still haven't gotten through the Prom photos.  This one, however, may be one of my favorite couple shots.

I have the day off today, so hopefully I'll get through all the photos.  I've done at least 3 rounds of cutting out the bad/unnecessary photos to whittle down the number in half, and I still have over 350 photos to go through.  Thank goodness for Presets.

Year 2 of 826CHI Prom

Last spring, I "had the time of my life" at 826CHI's 80's prom as their photographer.  The photo above is of the ladies room at Pulaski Park Fieldhouse, where the prom was held.  They asked me back this year, and I'm actually typing this out on Saturday afternoon because I know I won't have time later on because tonight is ROBOT ARMAGEDDON PROM. Photos coming soon, I promise!

You may have also noticed that my domain (sarah-ji.com) is now a splash page.  Yes, splash page, that's what it's called.  The main reason I've been so damn busy lately is that I was working on two websites to launch for this weekend, one for the wedding photography joint venture (True Blue Photos) with my friend Justin, and another one more for my portrait/events/whatever photography biz site (Sarah-Ji Photography).  Please have a looksy, but they were thrown together in a matter of days, so there may be some things missing here and there.  Feed back would be great if you have any!

Ted is currently building a skee ball setup in our basement.  It's for Version Fest '09's King Ludd's Midway Arcade.  Opening night will have happened by the time any one reads this.  He's got a loooong way to go as of Saturday 2:12 pm. 

So between his skee ball adventure and my website craziness, we didn't see each other at all on our Half Decade Anniversary yesterday.  Fortunately, Ted's parents took Cadence for part of the weekend, so hopefully we'll get some time together today.  I am sooooo going to see a movie rated at least PG-13.  At a theatre.  With popcorn and Coke.
