… for now.  This one’s for Joan and David after their gorgeous wedding at the Del on Saturday.  They leave for Tahiti tomorrow and the second I saw this shot I knew I had to post it before they left.  So here you go, Joan.  You looked spectacular!

It’s Monday now and I hope Joan and David had a chance to see that shot before they went on their honeymoon.  Don’t know.  What I do know is that I’ve finished editing and it’s going to KILL me for J&D not to see these for the three weeks of their honeymoon in Tahiti.   So for now, everyone else will get a little sneak peek at their images.  Enjoy!

No, I wasn’t working at the Open, but I did go on Wednesday-Friday and Sunday and Monday.  It was CRAZY out there today during the playoff trying to be one of over 20,000 people following two people (and a little white ball).  It was a challenge, but definitely worth it to be part of history.  I couldn’t bring my cameras in during the actual tournament, but I did take a few snaps on Wednesday.  Tiger didn’t play that day, but I did get one shot of him on the practice green.  Anyway, enjoy…

Vijay Singh…

Vijay’s practice partner, Sergio Garcia

Vijay and Sergio seemed pretty well at ease…

Sergio’s approach shot on #4…

Somebody hitting into #7, the same hole Tiger would eventually win the championship on…

Aaron Baddeley doin’ a little Stack and Tilt (the same swing technique that I’m currently trying out)…

Rich Beem with some serious leg action…

More Badd’s…

I LOVED this guy!  He was literally carrying SIX Canon Cameras.  I’ve never seen one photographer so loaded down.  I seriously thought he was going to die.  Maybe this should be my new look while shooting weddings…

Who’s this guy again???

This is my friend and portrait client, Jason Gore.  He didn’t have the week he was hoping for, but still seemed to have a great time just being there.  He’s one of the nicest guys you’ll ever meet and is loved by fans and players alike…
