Seal of Approval!
Posted on March 8, 2008 by Christine | 4 Comments
On Thursday, I received the email I’ve been waiting for – the exciting invitation to be a member of the WPJA – Wedding Photojournalists Association! Oh goodness, ever since I discovered the WPJA last year, I have wanted to be a member. So when I got the news – I was so excited! I think I have told every single person I have talked to since then! What an honor, I can’t even put it into words.
Today I’m already at the hotel where I will be photographing Andi & Jason’s wedding — I covered the rehearsal dinner last night, and Mike suggested that I just stay here since I could get a room at the block rate and it would save me from driving home at 10:30 and leaving 12 hours later to start shooting again. It is going to be a long day – the ceremony will be at 7:30pm, and dinner will be served at 10pm, with the reception scheduled to end around 1:30am in the morning! Tons of celebrating, dancing, and rejoicing by all – it is going to be a blast! Elaine will be with me of course, and we’re being joined by my friend Jennifer Wilson who is coming in from New Braunfels to shoot with us. Tonight we’ll be crashing at the hotel all over again so we don’t have to drive home. So worth it to avoid the drive time!
Wheee! It is going to be a long day, with coverage starting late this morning – but I’m so excited about it all!

I don’t know who they are but I know who you are and I know that they are lucky to have such an amazing talent in their group.

Congratulations on the WPJA! That’s terrific.
I really love this picture, there’s just something about that couple and all those empty seats. Very striking.

Congratulations, dear, I didn’t know there was such an association, but your inclusion is a no-brainer. Looking forward to you visiting Austin. Do you know that Franklin is coming in May?
