Spent the weekend at a cabin on Lake Erie with some friends. Lazy barbecuing time mostly but we did go to Cedar Point on Saturday which was an adrenaline rush. The rides there are crazy. Too crazy for me:) I did enjoy the bumping cars though.

My 4th of July weekend
Monday, July 6th, 2009My big fat Romanian wedding
Monday, June 1st, 2009OK, I know, the original title is My big fat Greek wedding. But that movie portrays Romanian weddings very well:). Loud people, lots of good food,lots of dancing.
On another note, I am pleased to see that the contest I’m running is a huge success. I am very thankful to all the future brides that entered. They shared a lot of cool details about the weddings they are planning. If you haven’t read these you should do it now. You’re in for some great stories.
Reading all these stories got me thinking about my wedding. I like to go back from time to time and look at our wedding pictures. So today I went through all the pictures our photographer took and I thought to share them.
Getting ready
We didn’t have any problems seeing each other before the ceremony so we could have some pictures taken right before we went to the church.
We had the wedding in the countryside with the ceremony being held in a small wooden church.
The party
Showing off my dance moves
At midnight the bride got stolen. Don’t worry, it’s just a Romanian custom 
I managed to get her back and we resumed the party
Until 5 o’clock in the morning

Destination wedding with a twist
Wednesday, May 20th, 2009There are a few places that come in mind when you say destination wedding. Sure, for us, mundane people Jamaica, Hawaii or Fiji sound like cool places. How about Alaska for the coolest destination for a wedding. I kid you not.
Punam Bean got to shoot a wedding on Mt. McKinley. How cool is that?
Happy birthday to my beautiful wife !
Tuesday, May 19th, 2009I am blessed to have such a loving, caring and understanding wife.

Some photos I’d like to share
Wednesday, April 29th, 2009
I was very fortunate this week. . I attended Cliff Mautner’s Lighting and Skillset Workshop and it was totally awesome.
He’s one of the best wedding photographers in the world, a great guy and a great teacher. I’ve also met Greg Gibson , another great photographer. It’s a humbling experience to meet and learn from these guys. More to come.
