After we left Rome, we drove north into Tuscany. We spent a couple of days exploring the Chianti region. Before we left, I had seen a photo in our guide book of a cart filled with old chianti flasks and decided I had to find it and photograph it myself. Kevin said there was no way I would find that cart and I have to admit that I wasn't too confident I would either. We didn't plan on exact places to stay on this part of the trip, instead opting to just find somewhere along the way. We found a really charming B&B in an old hamlet for our overnight stay and what do you think was sitting right in front of me ... that exact cart I had seen in the guide book!! I was so happy and proud of myself ... though I guess a little luck didn't hurt :-)!
A couple of weeks ago we headed over to Italy for a wedding / vacation! Our first stop was Rome, where the wedding took place. We spent three days there, most of which was related to the wedding, so we only had a small bit of time to take personal photos. We did however, have time on the last evening to go to the Ancient City and the Colosseum, which were spectacular! It is really humbling to stand in the shadow of an ancient world rich in so much history!
Happy Halloween from Yoshi, Bump and Sierra Blanco Photography!!
Donna Wright:
Bump actually looks like hes smiling and Yoshi looks like he feels the same way I do most days--get away and leave me alone...He is still very cute though. Love you..Mom

We are very excited to say we are headed out this Sunday to Rome, Italy to photograph a wedding at the Vatican next week!!!! After that we will be taking vacation, traveling around Italy until we finally end up in Venice before heading home. During that time we will have limited email access, but will get back to everyone as soon as we can. We will be returning on October 20th. Thanks so much!
Kristen and Adam were married September 17th, 2011 on a perfect day in Flagstaff, AZ. This wedding was a referral from my good friend and fellow wedding photographer, Melissa Dunstan. Melissa is very close friends with both the bride and groom and served as part of their wedding party and it was an honor for me to photograph this beautiful event! Everything about the day was magical, from the stunning couple, to the lovely decorations and ribbons hand-picked by the bride, to the enchanted wedding in a forest clearing in the mountains amongst tall pines and white-barked aspens, and then their was the little fawn. A baby deer fawn came up out of nowhere during formals to be a part of the photographs ... can't get much more magical than that :-)! We also had the chance to finally work with the ultra-talented Kim Duncan of KD Event Designs, www.kdeventdesigns.com , and she did a spectacular job with the reception set up at Thornagers. Thank you both for having us as your wedding photographers. It was a true joy! Enjoy the sneak peak! Thank you too to our Associate Photographer, Angie Gomez, for doing such an amazing job as always second shooting for this event!
