Yep, This was my Saturday

'nuff said.

Top: Dressed up as a banana, Honeysuckle, a pitt bull, waits to receive a snack while trick or treating with her owner around the stores surrounding Three Dog Bakery, who hosted a "Growl-o-ween" event for dogs. Besides trick or treating, there was a costume contest and everyone walked away with a bag of snacks for their pets.

Contact Sheet: Ganesh Festival

A few weeks ago, I covered a local Ganesh festival. Which can be explained here: but long story short, lots of parades and good food and sending Ganesha back to heaven by being sunk in water. Also, while researching this on wikipedia I came across this little tidbit that I thought was interesting.

"Today, the Ganesh Festival is not only a popular festival, it has become a very critical and important economic activity for Mumbai, Hyderabad, Vishakhapatnam, Bangalore and Chennai. Many artists, industries, and businesses survive on this mega-event. Ganesh Festival also provides a stage for budding artists to present their art to the public."
 

Utah: Mike & Djamila's Wedding

In August, I flew out to Utah to attend Mike and Djamila's wedding. Both are amazing photographers whom I met and worked alongside at various photography workshops over the past few years. I am a big fan of both of their work. It was a fun ceremony, and one of the most photographed weddings ever. There had to have been at least 50 photographers present with their cameras, which made for a great day, especially when it rained part way through the afternoon. I wish Mike and Djamila all the best in their adventures together.
