An Engaging Situation

Postby gstark on Tue Jan 01, 2013 11:02 am

Although he doesn't visit here anywhere near as often as he should, I'm super proud to announce that yesterday evening Leigh (NYE) proposed to Nic and she accepted.

Here's a little look at how he did it. http://engage.leighlo.com/

And please join me in wishing them nothing but joy and happiness for the rest of their lives. Yes, I'm a proud dad.

On behalf of me and Alicia, we offer our congratulations and the best wishes for wonderful life together. I can understand why you are chugged.
Regards, Patrick

Two or three lights, any lens on a light-tight box are sufficient for the realisation of the most convincing image. Man Ray 1935.

Congratulations to them both.

I know I don't come back here much, or at all lately (blame journalism), but I am working on something big for the site, and it should be a proper overhaul. :)

Better book your photographer soon. They can be hard to get when you need them.
