Snow in Charleston, South Carolina

Friday, February 12th, 2010

February 12, 2010 is the day people in Charleston, South Carolina will always remember as the day snow fell. I mean, really fell. We got close to 7 inches of snow.

Since I had never ever had snow before and had never really seen snow up close (except for in the glaciers of Alaska that is), I didn’t know that snow here in Charleston was a big deal.

Our puppy Shutter had lots of fun in the snow. As soon as the snow started falling she tried to eat it all and shoveled the snow into her mouth.

Here is a photo of Shutter jumping on a fence in the snow.

2009 has been a great year for us. It’s been a year of a lot of achievements and milestones in our business as well as in our lives. We’ve met a lot of wonderful people and did a lot of beautiful weddings in some of the most gorgeous locations in the tri-state area.

We hope 2010 will be even better!

Dog Jumping into Puddle

Friday, November 13th, 2009

We love this photo of our puppy Shutter. It’s kinda blurry (ok, it’s a lot blurry), but it just captures her personality so much that we had to share. She’s fun, rebellious, a little crazy and she sure loves water.

Twice a day we take her for a walk. Everytime she tries to jump into puddles and roll around in mud and tries to get that earthy smell on her. Every other day she succeeds and gets so dirty and muddy that we have to bathe her (which she does not like at all, even though she loves to jump into the water so much).

The newest addition to the Silvas family, Shutter!!!

Lunch with Muse 10 Photography in Charleston, South Carolina

Saturday, February 7th, 2009

We just had lunch with David and Kristina from Muse 10 Photography at the Wasabi Steakhouse in Downtown Charleston, South Carolina.

We met David and Kristina at the Greenville Bridal Show and they happened to be vacationing in Kiawah Island this week so we all decided to have lunch. Luckily, they like Japanee food and were in fact craving sushi for the longest time but just didn’t have a chance to.

Of course, the boys talked about gear and codecs and formats. We also talked about our businesses, photography, videography, the bridal show and pretty much everything and anything. We stayed there for 3 hours just talking and talking and it still seemed like there was still so much to talk about.

So you think you are smarter than a 5th grader, huh?

I know lots of people would go on the show “Are you Smarter than a 5th Grader?”, and find out that they’re NOT smarter than a 5th grader. But do you think you are smarter than a monkey?

Apparently, I am not.

We love the POM brand of pomegranate juice so much that it convinced us to buy an actual pomegranate fruit at the grocery. I was trying to eat it and found out that I do not know how to eat one. Brian suggested that I look it up on the internet. I say, I think if monkeys can figure out how to eat a pomegranate, I’m sure I will be able to figure it out without using the internet. (This is assuming that monkeys do eat pomegranate, which I am not entirely sure of).

Well, apparently I can’t figure out how to eat a pomegranate without the internet. In fact, I looked it up online and STILL could not figure it out. I looked at some pictures, watched some videos, I still couldn’t eat it.

Next time I want to eat some fruit, I’ll just open some canned fruit, thank you very much.
