7/30: Girlfriends. I've always known that the wedding entourage is not just a bunch of beautiful people you choose because you want your wedding photos to have, well, a bunch of beautiful people in it. Sure, David and I were blessed to be surrounded by pretty faces on our wedding ...

Day 6: When it’s clear this time you’ve found the one, you’ll never let him go
6/30: From a low angle. Here's my photograph for today, from a low angle, our first dance. When you know that you know who you love, you can't deny it. Or go back, or give up, or pretend that you don't buy it. When it's clear this time you've found the one, you'll never let ...
Day 5: Precious moments with my Mom
5/30. From a high angle. Here's another one of those mother-daughter moments I truly treasure. I still sometimes feel like a little girl when she's around. (: Photograph taken by my brother, Nate Sanchez. ...

Day 1: This is me, 30 years from now
1/30: Self-portrait. Although we had quite a number of photographers and videographers on our wedding day, I also had my own little coverage going on in the palm of my hands. I held a point-and-shoot camera (a Samsung WP10 I borrowed from my bridesmaid and friend Olivia) and ...
30 days: I’ve always wanted to do this
..and it's about time I did. (: True story. About a year ago (September 13, 2010 to be exact), I was in Hong Kong International Airport with David. He was flying back to New York but had to be on a 12-hour layover in HK; and me, well, I got myself round trip tickets just ...
