a Brooklyn Wedding

My sister was married last month and I photographed her wedding entirely on film and D was my assistant and backed me up digitally until I ran out of film then I took over the digital SLR too. Yeah I'm a camera hog, I admit it. Anywho, I've been away from the blog for a few days because I've been furiously working on her wedding present which is a collection of the photographs as a storybook/photobook plus I've been trying to wrap up the Tokyo guide zine (almost done :) I wanted to share just a few of the shots from my sister's wedding. I have the whole photo story up on my portfolio . It's a very annotated story, since I shot about 200 on film and 200 digital and I have 26 up, but I feel like it tells the whole story.

Zine-Tokyo Guide COMING SOON!!!

I finally found someone to print my zine, so now I'm super motivated to finish it up. Not long now folks. I'm hoping to be done designing it by the end of October and have it up for sale in November. My guide is very photo heavy since it's meant as a photo journal as much as a guide, I think you'll like it pigeons.
