In the midst of the summer wedding rush I got to take a breather with a charity event, the 2010 Annual Butterfly Ball. Living in LA, seeing people in entertainment is quite common--I gave Harrison Ford his soda at In-n-Out, and I blended a smoothie for Diane Keaton and her daughter at Jamba Juice. But seeing Hollywood gather together for the Ball was something new for me. So was meeting Nick Lachey and Ben Stiller and running after Chris Tucker (I had to run to catch up to him as he is much taller than me), as he rushed to the event. Seth MacFarlane was his usual self, making fun of everyone, and after wikipedia-ing Glee, (I don't really watch TV but I am a fan of Family Guy) I met much of the cast at the Ball. WireImage took care of most of the celebrity red carpet stuff and I was, for the most part, in charge of photographing all of the sponsors of the event. In addition to Chrysalis providing me with a shadow who identified all of the celebrities for me and ran through my shot list with me, the bartenders were really helpful too. They're usually helpful with the drinks, but this time they were also gracious enough to pour drinks with the label showing while I photographed away.

Happy summer! Happy sunshine, and happy Southern California weather. I had the honor of spending a portion of Yvonne and Chris's fourth year anniversary by celebrating their special day with pictures. Yvonne and I totally connected from the beginning, with the both of us going into our fourth year of marriage, our husbands both in the field of law, and the both of us in professions that are more on the whimsical side (Von is in the party planning business).
We spent half of our time at Carbon Beach, next to the Malibu Beach Inn, and then we ended up at Malibu Lagoon State Beach where Yvonne set up an intimate anniversary dinner for Chris. The things we do when we truly love-- it never ceases to amaze me.

About a month ago I co-organized a bridal shower with my fellow bridesmaid fashionista, Nina Moon for my recently-married friend Christine. It was so much fun going back in time to the 1920s! The night before we saw the musical Chicago, which was a darker side of the 1920s. Needless to say we wanted to lighten up a bit for the day of the shower, so thankfully the 1920s was also characterized by F. Scott Fitzgerald, pearls, flapper girls, and tea parties. The invitations were all hand-assembled and paper mache'd with Cavallini paper and I had a great time making each invitation very girly and pretty. I also made so many trips to vintage stores for the tea party finds; I think I am officially addicted to vintage. I love the adventure of finding a piece of history.
