Healthy and Ready to GO!

by | Jan 3, 2013 | 0 comments

I woke up today feeling healthy for the first time this year! I am finally over the stomach virus that was ailing me, and now back to the desk, working to finish catching up on 2012 weddings. Just a handful to go, and then it’s full steam ahead for 2013!

With Awards season upon us, I’ll be seeing a lot of red carpets this month (SAG & Critics Choice Awards, Golden Globes, Oscars…etc).. a perfect way to bridge the gap to the wedding season, which is shaping up to be another good one. Although I still haven’t booked a wedding in Italy, which is my desired destination this summer, so anyone who has a relative getting married there, let them know I will take great care of them. 🙂

Okay, that’s all this was, just a quick pep talk, either to myself or you…I don’t know. BUt don’t forget about your resolutions! Stick to them, at least for a month, and see how great it feels! That will be enough motivation to keep it going another month… and another…

Anyway.. Happy 2013! and have a great weekend!

and ummm… go Ravens! Let’s send Ray out in style…

Happy New Year!

Well, it’s that time of the year again, time for another one to start! I hope you all have had a wonderful holiday season, and are looking forward to a new beginning.
2012 has been the busiest year ever for me, and I am very grateful and blessed for all the support I get from those close to me, as well as all of my truly amazing couples, who entrusted me to capture the biggest day of their lives.
Moving forward into a this brand new year, I look forward to all of the amazing couples I have yet to meet, and those who I’ve already met and booked and will have the opportunity to work with soon.
This year is setting up to be even busier than last, and I hope the same for everyone reading this. (Okay, even for people not reading this.. if I like them 😉 …)

Remember to make a New Year’s resolution, and set a goal or two for yourself. It’s amazing how self accountability can serve as a great motivator. And if you aren’t a great self motivator, get a friend or family member involved. Get some help in keeping you in line with your goals. And even if you slip up once or twice, or 50 times, it’s NEVER too late to start again. So much in life is purely persistence and faith.

Life is full of chances… as many as you are willing to take. I heard a quote somewhere recently and I can’t for the life of me remember where, but it’s “from” someone’s father (I say “from” because I don’t remember if it was a real person or in a movie)… anyway, the quote… from “someone’s father,” who would say it to his son,

“What would you set out to do if you knew you wouldn’t fail?”

Think about that…

Make a resolution. Set a goal(s). Be bold.

As my final quote of 2012 says, from that Matt Damon movie where he bought a zoo, “You know, sometimes all you need is twenty seconds of insane courage. Just literally twenty seconds of just embarrassing bravery. And I promise you, something great will come of it.”

Happy New year everyone. Be safe. Be good. Be brave. God bless…
