I may have been hiding under a rock because I just found this great wedding blog that I did not know about - JoMy Goodness!  And oh-my-goodness, is it good.  Jomylene has a great eye for fashion, color and details and puts them all together on her blog.  So many great wedding finds and links to vendors and other wedding related inspiration.  In addition to stunning image boards, color inspiration boards and fashion finds, Jomylene has a running “Twenty-Ten” feature that is a weekly post of wedding inspiration.  The coolest part of this feature, and one that I’ve never seen before, is the “Top Ten Images of the Week”.  What a great idea!  It’s a great way to feature photographers and their creative images.  She featured one of my images from the Italy shoot and I was so happy to see it posted!  Thanks so much Jomylene!  Click HERE to see the post and my image!

Here is the image that she featured from one of my Italy Week Posts from the Jose Villa + Gene Higa Workshop!  Love this image.

Don’t forget to check out the JoMyGoodness Blog for more inspiration, ideas, color boards, flowers, fashion…….the amazing list of eye-candy goes on and on.  Check it out!

Special thanks to the Chocolate Pink Pastry Cafe!

Our last session was with the beautiful Georgia & Omar in the gorgeous olive groves at Borgo di Fontebussi.  The session took place just before the sun set over the tuscan hills and the light was incredibly delicious!  It was really the most beautiful setting I have ever been in.  The colors, the textures of the leaves and fresh grass, the smell of firewood in the air…just breathtaking.  We led Georgia & Omar through the lush olive groves and out to the edge of the farm where a view of the hills and the town of Montegonzi above.  This was by far my favorite session and favorite location and I only hope that one day I can go back.  Enjoy!

stacy able: I don't want italy week to end on your blog :( Stunning, emotional, and just plain perfect!

Our next shoot was held at the Borgo di Fontebussi Resort & Villa.  The gorgeous resort was perched on top of a hill with beautiful views of Tuscany.  We photographed Valentina & Giordano around the old, abandoned village that the Resort was built around.  The colors and textures, and historic architecture were a great backdrop for the session.  Each person had a chance to direct the couple individually and pose them as we wished.  Here’s a few from my session with the lovely Valentina & Giordano!
