Dave and Juju: Tucson Wedding

Dave and Juju's wedding is one that has been a long time coming. Juju is from India, and it was only in the last couple months that God finally worked things out for her coming over to the States.  I know they were both very excited for this day to finally come.  The wedding was down at the The First United Methodist Church, where the wedding was held, is the oldest mainline denomination church in Tucson and was originally built in 1879.  The reception was help in the original building.
















Some of the Goshen Ministries Choir provided some amazing worship and dance during the reception. The choir "performs Christian songs in Swahili, Kirundi, French and English. The members are all refugees from Congo, Tanzania, Burundi, and Chad and are in their early teens and mid twenties."  I loved watching them perform, very cool



Congratulations and many blessings to Dave and Juju

Julia | Tucson Senior Pictures

I originally met Julia and her family about two years ago when I started attending their church.  Even though we no longer attend church together, we have thankfully been able to keep in touch and I had the opportunity to do Julia's senior pictures.  Julia loves the camera, love Jesus, and also loves taking pictures herself.  For the shoot we went over to Tanque Verde Ranch provided the beautiful backdrop for the pictures.  Thanks for looking!

Nick | Denver Senior Pictures

Nick, despite the fact that he doesn't like having his picture taken, was a complete natural in front of the camera and was so easy to work with.  He came down with some of his family and we spent an hour or so cruising around downtown. It so so nice to spend a few days in Denver, both working and relaxing.  Thanks for looking!

Melissa | Thornton Senior Pictures

Melissa's mom contacted me about doing some senior pictures a while back. After a little dialogue as to what they were looking for and where they wanted to do them, I realized that they wanted to head over to one of my favorite parks.  I have shot here numerous times and never get tired of it.

Melissa was very nice and so easy to work with.  I suspect that her pictures reflect both of these qualities.  Congratulations Melissa on your upcoming year and graduation!

Update Pt. 2

Washington was beautiful, especially out on the coast.  70* Weather, partly sunny and only a couple sprinkles.  I'm not sure as if I would want to live there, but it was great for a visit.

We spent a day down at the beach, went crabbing, and just enjoyed ourselves.  The thing about crabbing that surprised me is that you don't through the crab in some boiling water and cook it.  You take the live crab, rip it's shell off, scoop its guts out and then tear it in half.  Morbid sounding, I know, but oh so good tasting.


The seaweed after the tide started going back out


A couple days later we took the Ferry over to Friday Harbor for a couple hours (The previous wallpaper was from that trip)  It was definitely a beautiful trip.



I finished up my trip with a day down in Seattle. I went down to Pike Place Market with my cousin Pam, went to the original Starbucks, and took the monorail over to the space needle. I love the feel of downtown Seattle.




Until next time,
Robert Wilson
