Bollywood

My husband and I had a date night tonight and decided to try out the new All Indian Cafe on Vashon Isl. They were showing a Bollywood movie with dinner. Bollywood movies are made in India and have lots of costumes, music, cultural dancing, sometimes some cheesy dialogue (but that might be just the translations) and don't alway have the best production, but man they are fun! The music is fantastic, the people are beautiful, the dancing is to die for.

Anyway, this reminded me of a terrific couple who's wedding I photographed last summer. Kelly and Maneesh...they and their families are the nicest folks you would ever want to meet. They had a small Indian wedding at a private home on Mercer Island last Labor Day.
Kelly's dress was a gorgeous blue, Maneesh wore traditional garb, the food was mouth watering, the setting beautiful, everyone was so gracious, and the music and dancing got into your soul. I loved these guys! Here are a few pages from their wedding album.

My Self-Imposed Challenge

Starting on Sept 1st (today), I am challenging myself to post a blog everyday for the entire month. Why you ask? Because I have too much time on my hands? Not!
I thought it would be interesting to see what I would come up with. So here it goes!

First of all...Happy Labor Day! As we say "Adios" to summer and let's honor all those who work for a living, including ourselves.

In an effort to be a part of the great world of technology,
social networking, and some shameless self-promotion,
I am now a part of http://www.facebook.com/,
http://www.linkedin.com/, http://www.merchantcircle.com.
Please join me on one or all of these sites for your own networking and shameless self-promotion. The more the merrier!
I'll keep you posted on that venture.
Until, tomorrow...
