The Florentine Orphan

This blog is dedicated to all things that I love, Italy, photography, family, and all things pretty. After spending a semester in Florence, I feel like I was meant to live there....but I don't...hence the name of my blog.

Photography Class!

I started a photography class..beginning digital SLR. These are the photos from the 2nd assignment. The photos are of St Patrick's Cathedral in San Francisco.

Bambinos

So I signed up for a one on one session with a photographer to try and learn how to use my camera better. I haven't tested the actual camera out yet since the lesson but I did play around in Picasa altering some existing images. Below are ones of my nieces and nephews.

OMFG


Ok for starters, let's talk about the most recent episode of GG. Can someone please just make Jenny go away...can't she go live with the mom or something? She's a good girl, she's a bad girl..I can't keep track nor do I care.


I like that Vanessa came clean...we don't need everyone in the Upper East Side to be a backstabber, do we? I think Blair is enough to go around. Plus, I certainly didn't want him to end up with Jenny.


The whole Blair/Chuck doppleganger thing was awesome..."beta chuck?" Oh Blair, I want to meet the person who writes your lines.


Ok so then I read on Perez that Vanessa and Chuck are getting busy in real life....dang they like to hook up on that show.


Upcoming scenes look scrumptious! Let the scandal ensue...

Dang..he is good!

We got our wedding pictures! We just LOVE them. The one thing I was certain about for my wedding is that I had to have Jesse Leake. I had seen a fellow bride's wedding photos back when I first got engaged and had to find out who she used. Well it was Jesse, and I knew he was the one (the photographer that is). Below are some of our favorites!
