We hope to see you there! In the meantime, here are a couple of our recent weddings at Viewpoint: Click each image to be taken to the full blog post…

It’s time for our next get together before the 2010 wedding season kicks in! Julie Rhodes has agreed to host the gala event at her new studio on King Street in downtown Chatham.

We’re going to keep it pretty informal and just order in pizza. We’ll also kick in pop and muchies and the first case of beer. After that – it’s BYOB. So if everyone can just toss $20 into the hat – we’ll cover the cost of the pizza. If you have any special requests – please note it in your RSVP.

For the most part – as with all of our get togethers – there will be no structure or agenda, it’s just a time for all of us to network and get to know each other a bit more. But we’re also going to try something a bit different for this one and try to have a bit of a discussion while dinner is being server about 1 or 2 topics.

Somebody has already suggested we discuss second shooters – we all seem to have differnet policies and terms – so it seems to be a great topic to start! Any other ideas…???

And finally – if you bring some images on a CD or memory stick, we will drop them into a slideshow to play throughout the night! If you want to bring some albums or prints along to show off – please do!

Please feel free to pass this on to anyone who might be interested in attending – all are welcome! I hope to you see you there,

john and julie

And a special thanks to Dhyana at Swanky Affair for helping me design my new booth – it looks awesome!  (Don’t mind the photo quality either, I was just using my little Canon point and shoot)

So you know how when someone asks you a question and you can’t think of the perfect answer until a month later…??? That’s what happened when Marissa from Biz X asked me what my craziest photograph was. Well, I couldn’t think of anything “crazy” right off the bat, but this morning when I read the article, I instanty thought of my skinny-dipping bride and groom from 7/7/7. You heard it right – skinny-dipping! Right after the ceremony, Jessica and Doug, both avid wake boarders jumped in their boat and took off down the Thames River. What happend next – well, they both stood up, stripped down and jumped in…

Now, Marissa, that’s CRAZY!

Cheers!

We’ll be at both Windsor Wedding Shows this year for the first time. Usually we just do the Wedding Odyssey show at the Ciociaro Club, but this year a spot opened up at the Wedding Extravaganza so we thoght that we would give it a shot there this year too. So here’s our schedule…
