Nicholas First Snow Trip

Sam and I bought Nicholas to his first snow trip couple weeks ago, we drove up to Sierra because it was little closer than other resorts. At the beginning, Nicholas was scared to touch or walk on the snow, maybe he never touched anything like that cold and walk on slippy surface. Well, this was his first snow experience, and I hope he will get better next time and become my snowboard parnter later! Here are few shots would like share, enjoy!

WPPI 2009

WPPI is coming in couple days, I have packed my suitcases and ready heading to Las Vegas! WPPI is the heaven for all the wedding photographers, contest, exhibition, classes, parties, and more. This is my fifth year going to WPPI and I'm still excited to go there. Everything I will bring new vendors to my studio and I can't wait to find out what's new for the year. I also have my shopping list ready because the show price usually is a bargin. Of course, party party parties, I hope I don't get too drunk this year! Viva Las Vegas, here I come!

Where was Ricky?

As some of you may concern, how come the blog hasn't been updated in the past few weeks? It is because I was in Hong Kong in the last couple weeks for my best friend's wedding. It was a fun trip, I tried many different kind of food there and the most important, my friend's wedding was so fun. I also took some engagement pictures for them in Central, pictures will be posted later on the blog. Happy New Year to you all!

5th Anniversay Celebration | Secrets Silversands Riviera Cancun

To celebrate our 5th anniversary, Sam and I went to Cancun in the past weekend for a short break (thanks to our parents for babysit Nicholas for us.) I found a very good deal on Travelzoo and we stayed at a brand new hotel - Secrets Silversands Riviera Cancun. This is an all inclusive hotel, which means all meals, drinks, tips..etc are included. We decided to stay in hotel for the entire trip because we just wanted to relax but nothing else. Here are our daily activities: eat, drink, sun tan, drink, swim, drink, swim, eat, drink... Yes, there wasn't much to do in the hotel, but that was exactly what we were looking for - relax. Foods were awesome there, they had many restaurants and served different type of cuisine: Mexican, Asian, French, Italian, Seafood, and Mediterranean. We tried most of the restaurants and we liked the French dinner the most. We also tried the hotel spa and it was so relax. We first had the hydrotherapy, then Sam had hotstone massage and I had deep tissue. This hotel is perfect for honeymoon and anniversary celecbration, and I'd highly recommend this hotel to you. Last, we didn't buy anything back from Cancun because we stayed at the hotel all the time, but we brought a lot of sun burn and mosiquto bites with us.
