			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We&#8217;re sending another album off to one of our couples, and this brings us both joy and a tinge of sadness&#8230;.like sending children off on their first day of school. As we close each wedding, we say goodbye to a year or so of planning and hello to the rest of their lives. We just hope they remember us from time to time, as they turn the pages of their wedding album.</p>
<p>Ok, enough of my Hallmark moment. Just Facebook us already so I don&#8217;t get all emotional during album pick ups.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I asked Alfred what he wanted for Father&#8217;s Day. He said he wanted to go to a workshop, but wasn&#8217;t sure which one.</p>
<p><em>Me,</em> &#8220;<em>Of all the photographers that you follow, whom would you like to hang out with the most?&#8221;<br />
Him, &#8220;Oly.&#8221;</em></p>
<p>At that time, Oly of (<a href="http://mymetrophoto.com">www.mymetrophoto.com</a>) didn&#8217;t have a set workshop in California anytime soon, he had no idea who we were, and we didn&#8217;t even know if he&#8217;d be on this side of the globe any time soon (he&#8217;s based out of Manila). So, I took it upon myself to cold call (well, cold email) him. He was so nice and happened to be in San Francisco for a wedding in June, so I worked some awesome magicness and contacted amazing Joanne Tan of the <a href="http://www.hotelwhitcomb.com">Hotel Whitcomb</a> and Hothouse San Francisco 2010 was born.</p>
<p>We had such an awesome time.</p>
<p>Alfred&#8217;s behind the scenes shots:</p>
<p>(first shoot of the day. Miss Joanne Tan is the fabulous model.)</p>
