Well, we all know about Starbucks so there is no need to talk too much about it and post images. But before Nadia and Shawn, two bright and fun UW scholars, finally settled down in the busiest Starbucks in town (according to their research!) in U Village late into the evening, we spent some fun time in Gas Work park and UW campus snapping shots…when I remembered to remove my lens cap!

You have to admire his efforts and spirit…this paster and his wife converted this old bus into a moving preach station. I was first, of course, drawn by its color. I was like ‘What’s this big colorful bus doing here in water front?’ Then I saw all the messages the paster was trying to convey. I paid him one dollar and he said “Take as many as you wish.”

I took four because my son Anton was getting hungry.

I was trying to describe Marissa and Andy’s wedding Lori, a Bay Area based wedding photographer, and I photographed last Sunday at Oak Creek Gold Resort east of SF. Both Marissa and Andy are young, energenic, atheletic (both are swim masters) and just happy, happy, and happy! Marissa, what can I say…she was strikingly beautiful and couldn’t her mouth shut (from laughing!) Their parents were very nice people too. It was a long day and I was tired after flying back to Seattle the next morning. But it was such a great wedding!!!
