Guess what??? Rico and I had the day off yesterday! I know, monumental. So that means I only needed ONE cup of coffee this morning to go along with my blueberry soy milk smoothie and my pickled beets (breakfast of champions). Rico and I had such a special weekend, with an engagement session of a couple of triathletes and a wedding of two of the sweetest people I’ve ever met. So I’m feeling good and ready for what this week holds, first of which is sharing a couple who is very near to my heart.
HOWEVER, before that I have a little propostion for you all. I have been getting a lot of emails lately from current and aspiring photographers asking questions about photography. I love all your questions and I love that you’re reaching out, it just takes me a little while to respond sometimes because my inbox is crazy… a dark place that inbox. A few years ago a photographer I love offered a little meet up at a coffee shop here in San Diego which we attended and the relationships and knowledge that came out of it were invaluable. Since that helped us so much, I thought I’d offer the same. SOOOOOO, not sure there is even anyone interested, but I’m thinking of scheduling a meet up for sometime in the next two weeks on a weeknight at a coffee shop just to meet, hang out, answer any questions. I want to keep it somewhat small so if you’re interested send me an email to rachel@studiocastillero.com and the first 6 people/couples who respond will receive the details of the meet up. Sound good? do it now. boom.
And with that I give you the FANTASTIC Luca and Carly. Oh man, these two…I love them. Luca is a good friend of mine from college in SLO. I have such fond memories of too much nutella on french bread, MANY nights at Garappolo’s, hours of excel accounting homework bashing, and eating pasta in the middle of the night. They were married at the San Luis Obispo Mission on a rainy day in June. It was beautiful, the food was amazing (Luca is from Italy and has quite the taste for good Italian food), the details were exactly “them”, and the day went off without a hitch..even with the rain. Luca, you are such a sweet part of my college experience and I don’t know what it would have been like without you. Carly, I have only met you recently but I must say, I adore you just as much…the two of you are a prime pair and I couldn’t have picked someone better for Luca. Next time we’re in town we must get together for some wine tasting and nutella..yes, mmmmmmm. In the meantime, enjoy! xoxo
