This Thursday we’ll be flying to Mexico to photograph the wedding of Rimma and Mark! The fun-loving couple approached us about a year ago about shooting their destination wedding in Tankah, Mexico and we’ve been looking forward to it ever since.

Rimma and Mark’s engagement photo session was shot at The Presidio and we had such a blast with these guys that we couldn’t be more excited about being their destination wedding photographers. In addition to the wedding day photos, we’ll also spend some time driving around Tankah, Mexico and the nearby cities looking for some amazing places to shoot. We can’t wait to share it all with you on our blog!

We’ll be back in the Bay Area on Friday, May 1st. Hope you had a wonderful weekend!

We are excited to announce that Choco Studio was chosen as one of San Francisco’s “Best of Project Wedding 2008″ photography vendors! It’s a great honor to be selected as one of the top 5% of wedding professionals in our area.

We’ve been fans of the great resources Project Wedding has to offer for several years now and are thrilled to be selected for this award. Thank you to all of our wonderful clients for making this happen - it’s because of the trust you give us that we are able to do what we love for a living.

Natalya and Rob’s wedding was a featured ‘Real Weddings’ gallery on Project Wedding last December and we really appreciate all the wonderful reviews our clients have left for us on this website:

Coming up next on our blog we have some pretty special personal news to share. We’ve been keeping it on the down low for a couple of weeks but it’s been cause for some great excitement around here and we’re ready to tell you all about it :)

Have an excellent week!

Mike and I are off to Vegas tomorrow for the WPPI trade show. WPPI, or Wedding and Portrait Photographers International, is a huge week-long photo convention. Every year the best talent in the industry comes together to talk, learn, and have a lot of fun!

We decided to skip the classes this year and just go there for one day to visit the trade show (after living in hotels for a month I couldn’t bear the thought of spending another night :) )

We are very exited to meet old and new friends and check out all the latest and greatest photo gear and products! I always feel like a kid in a toy store at trade shows, I have to look and touch everything till my head starts spinning! May be it’s wiser to leave our credit cards at home tomorrow :)

We’ll be back in the office on Thursday. And just because the post is no fun without pictures, here’s a reminder that spring is on its way:
