Patrick and Martha
Patrick and Martha are off in Puerto Rico right now, and I must say I am very jealous! My mother is from Puerto Rico and we would often visit my grandmother there when I was little. I havent been there in at least 10 years though, and I would love to go back. I wonder how things have changed there?
Something very interesting happened at this wedding! A gentleman came up to me and told me that his wife’s sister is a photographer. “Do you know of Joyce Tenneson?” he asked. I don’t think my eyes could have gotten any bigger. Joyce Tenneson, who is based in New York and has 11 books out, was one of my favorite photographers in college. I did a report on her in college and just for the heck of it, I thought I’d look up her phone number and see if I could ask her a few questions. Assuming I would get a represenative or something, you can imagine my shock when Joyce herself answered the phone. I’ve never been so nervous in my life!! So I told the gentleman this story and he took me over to meet his wife, Joyce’s sister. Her sister ended up giving me her business card and telling me I should contact her and get Joyce’s personal number.
I am so excited about this!! I would love to go to New York and see if she’d look at my fine art portfolio. Could you imagine if she said yes?
Anyways, Patrick and Martha are awesome. I actually saw them quite a bit because their wedding was over a two day period!
Here are some of my favorite images from the wedding:
