    These two are getting married on May 19, 2007.  We just did a last minute engagement session!

    On a side note, I will once again remind you to back up all of your files and get your equipment checked.  While in Yosemite, two of my 5 lenses broke.  How…no idea…they weren’t dropped at the time they broke!  I get back to find that one lens (my back up) would cost $250 to fix.  So I decide to by another lens (Tameron 2.8 17-50mm – nice lens very happy with it!).  I then take the lens (nikon 18-70 3.5) home to my husband and tell him it is a new rubix cube to play with.  Ten minutes later…the lens is fixed.  The second lens rattles when shaken…that one went back to Nikon as it is my favorite lens (Nikon 24-85 2.8) and won’t be back for six weeks.  Think that is enough for one week.  Nope, that Saturday my back up flash burnt out at the wedding reception.  Nothing like having a hot flash during the cake cutting!  Then during one of my engagement sessions the next week, my 2nd camera stops auto focusing my lenses.  Not sure if I want to bother sending that to nikon in the thick of wedding season so still dealing with that issue.  Last but not least, my computer started crashing.  It has taken me a week and a half to figure it out (crossing my fingers) which ended up being a problem with MS automatic update feature eating up all of my memory.  Of course, I sit down tonight to start processing my images finally.  My daylight bulbs in my office have burnt out.


    Amazingly enough, I am in high spirits.  I have my family, clients health and all is normal with the world.  Just thought I would share my experience with second and back up equipment failure.  BE PREPARED!!


    Best wishes!

  • Looks great Jen! 

    Happy Mother’s day!  Hope you are enjoying this day.  I am headed into work :( ……so tired.

  • did you buy all your equipment at the same time? mine always seem to break right after the warranty period expired.

    the book looks good.

  • When it rains it pours, huh?  Why does it always seem to happen that way?! 

    Those are great photos and your guest book idea ROCKS!  I bet the bride and groom just love it. -Jen
