wedding week

It's been a busy week for me. My brother's wedding is this weekend, which means lots of errands. I'm responsible for some of the photos, so aside from getting a suit and haircut I've also had to get extra batteries and memory cards for my camera. Oh yeah, I also went shopping for wedding gifts last night. That was quite the ordeal.

It's so hard to shop when restricted to a registry. I had one of the girls at Crate and Barrel walk around with me and help me shop. She was really cute and funny. I caught myself pretending that she was my girlfriend for a few seconds. Is that creepy?

On the photography tip: I'm a little stressed about taking photos at the wedding. I've never had to perform under pressure. To better equip myself I decided to return the used 20mm lens in favor of the Canon 16-35mm f/2.8 lens I've been wanting. It was a lot more money, but it will allow for a bit more flexibility and I think I'll be happier in the long run. I've done some shooting with it around my apartment and it is simply amazing.

This leads to my next concern: this site. I feel it's time for a change. A redesign is long overdue and I'd also like to shift the focus a bit to feature my photos. I want to start posting a photo every day or so, instead of waiting for a group of shots that is ready for my photo gallery page.
