Going, going, gone.

I’m just about to shut the computer down and leave for the airport to board my flight to Mexico. After that I’m taking three weeks off before I shoot my last wedding of the year in NYC the day before New Years. And then it starts all over again. I’m going to write a longer post about the craziness that was 2010 and also post a couple of more weddings before the year is over, but for now – adios. It’s been a remarkable year. I will still be available on email, so don’t be a stranger.
