I am very proud to announce that just recently, I was accepted into the Wedding Photojournalist Association –I am a full-fledged member next to some of the world's finest artist… I do feel somewhat small in the grand scope of things, but I’m happy being one of the members representing Arizona next to Hinkle, Richards, Rashka, Lopez, Clark, and everyone else from AZ –the list goes on… which truly is a tribute to the talent here in the desert.

In all seriousness, I am very proud because it’s not an easy task becoming a member of the WPJA. Membership is granted to individuals who meet a certain standard in their work as photographers.
