Today at work, a Jonas brother winked at me.

Officially the last wedding of the year for me! Couldn’t have gone out on a better note – the two chillest people in the universe got married. I wouldn’t have a job, and I probably wouldn’t still be there a year later if it wasn’t for this dude, and he probably wouldn’t be nearly as awesome if it weren’t for his beautiful doctor wife (homegirl IS A DOCTOR). So I appreciate their love, and couldn’t be happier for them.

Ok though seriously, 6 weddings is too many weddings for one year. Take a break, kids.

They were incredible. I want to shoot them again. The underlying theme in things I’m interested in shooting lately is “people who like one thing more than all the things I like combined” if that makes any sense. It’s not obsession I’m after, and I refrain from saying passion because that seems like an oversimplification of what I’m trying to express. I’ll put it more eloquently when I finally figure out what it is I want.

Nicole and James, in addition to being hot wedding models that Sahara and I hired to make our photographs look good, are really wonderful people. Their wedding was small, tasteful, extremely fun, and most importantly had what seemed like an unlimited amount of food.

They’re about to start an amazing new life in California – and my days at MTV are going to see a sharp decrease in snark, which I cannot put into words how much I will miss. I only hope they fully realize how soon it will be before I am sleeping on their couch.

I’ve loved Katy B for over a year now, and getting to go to her first live show in NYC because of MTV would have been enough to keep me happy for months. Getting to meet her, and photograph her for the MTV tumblr is a whole different story. I’m floating.

They also let me shoot some video to make some animations…

I hate choices, I hate decisions, I hate picking one thing over another. I’d rather have both frames than have to choose just one. I am becoming a photographic hoarder.

These are my two favorite pictures of my one favorite moment of the summer.

My ladies Sahara and Sarah and I went to the Renaissance Faire in Tuxedo, New York two weeks ago and saw some wonders. I’m always a fan of anybody who cares about something enough to dress in head to toe leather on a 90 degree humid day (no matter the reason), but the costuming at this event exceeded my wildest expectations. I need to go back, perhaps costumed. A lot more pics to come soon…

It doesn’t happen as often as it should, my friends are amazing and energetic dancers.
