luc on his graduation day.
June 5th, 2010 – Bucharest, Romania.
I know Lucian since highschool and it’s been great to see him grow into.. well, a fine man indeed! And just so cool to know him graduate. I met with him and his gorgeous girfriend Ana just a couple of hours before his graduation party. We took a walk in the old town, snapped a few shots and had drink together.

about what I did this Saturday and why there are no new posts on the blog..
Lately I’ve been asked quite often why I do not post new things on the blog.. I have a lot of new photos to show you, and I would love to have time to post them. But because now in the beginning of summer I am busy with photographing, editing, designing, taking exams, meeting cool summer brides, spending time with my husband, looking for an apartment to move into by the end of summer and killing the mosquitos in my house.. I’ve posted preview shots on my Facebook page. This page works even if you have or not not have Facebook.
Stay in touch with the latest photos here.
And because all posts are better with a photo, this is a shot from Saturday’s wedding in Targoviste.
Raluca and Andrei, you were fabulous!

ionut si mirela: wedding part 2
November 14, 2009 – Rm. Valcea, Romania.
I know Ionut for many years now, we attended the same church on Sundays while living in Rm.Valcea. And because of my older brother Emil and my parents who like him much, he’s been rather close to my family. Apart from being kind, and nice and always there to help, there is one thing really striking about him: he is such a romantic. I mean, really, such a romantic!
So when a friend of his told him ‘I have a cousin, let me send you a photo of her..‘ he knew it was a firm ‘No!‘ He just didn’t like the idea. Especially through the internet. No, he said, definitely not! Still, he had to be polite to his friend and accepted the photo. Well, that changed his mind instantly and he asked for her e-mail.Mirela, who was in Italy over the summer, felt just the same. ‘not right now..’ ‘huh.. not like this.. ‘
Yet, they started talking over the internet. They shared the same passion about things and life and God. By the time the summer was ending and Mirela was soon returning in the country, Ionut was decided. He visited her parents in Petrila about a month before she came back. And she was jealous of her parents and of her sisters for meeting him before her!
The months that followed must have been some good times. Every time I talked with my mother there was news of Ionut borrowing the car and taking a long weekend off [again!]. And then I heard about him cycling over the mountains to propose to her. The Valea Oltului route. Vidra Lake altitude of 1400m. 140km. over the Carpathian Mountains. [here you can see the route] Surely here mother was exaggerating! So I asked Ionut how did that happen, and he said ‘well, I went with my parents to see her parents, and I had the ring with me, and I held a nice speech, parents present, and she said yes. And on our way back home my mom just realized how I had the ring but did not give it. Well,it wasn’t that I forgot, I just didn’t find the moment special. So I came back the next day. By bike. Biked form early morning till 4pm. And there I was in my biking outfit- shades and cap, with white roses and a ring. And I kneeled . And, well…, she was shocked, and I think she didn’t recognize me at first…’
Their wedding day was all fun and relaxing. Mirela’s family is awesome. It was great to meet all her siblings and friends. They really made the day amazing! Thanks you all for your help and good times. On Facebook you can see more photos from the ceremony and soon I will also add some shots taken in the evening at the restaurant. See them here.

ionut si mirela: wedding, part 1 – morning with the bride
November 14, 2009 – Rm. Valcea, Romania.
Today Ionut and Mirela came over to pick up the wedding album so I decided it is about time I start posting them. There is an enormous amount of photos so I will have to post them in 2 or 3 parts. Here are the first shots taken in the morning as Mirela was getting ready and her friends were singing in the next room. It was a relaxing day as the wedding started only at 4pm.
