I got picked for the Knot Best of Weddings 2010!!!!

I have some exciting new to share with you all! I got a call from the knot this week to tell me that andres valenzuela photography was picked to be 'best of weddings for 2010'!! How cool is this!

At first I didn't know what to say but the lady sensed my shock and so explained it to me and said that they surveyed 'the knot brides' and it was they that submitted ratings on their favorite vendors for their wedding. So this is even more awesome in that it is couples themselves that rated me this way!

I'm so grateful for this honor to be included in their Best of Weddings for 2010! And I'm so grateful to all my past couples who rated my services!

I have some big news to announce VERY soon and this just comes in such a timely manner!

Thank you beautiful couples who let me photograph you and thank you photographers who have come along and photographed with me on my weddings! You all make this worth doing!

Updates, Updates, MAJOR Updates.....

So much to update you all on!!! So I think I have to split this up into a few posts.

First the most important of them.....I'm married to the amazing and beautiful Kimberly Webb Valenzuela. :)

Our wedding was sunday July 12 and we got a beautiful, beautiful day. We had the whole thing outside in Nyack and were so thankful for no rain.

Being a wedding photographer you get to see the whole wedding unfold and you are so in tune with what is going on. However being 'IN' a wedding as the groom is a whole different ball game! The day flew by so fast and even though I loved every second of it, I really didn't get to fully see, talk to everyone and experience the day in it's entirety. Throughout our honeymoon Kim and I kept saying that we could not wait to see our photos and video to actually see what the day was like!

I highly recommend any future bride and groom to put a good number of eggs in your wedding photography basket! Getting our day well documented was priceless! We have found that after the wedding was over we had nothing to remember the day by except photos.

We were so grateful to have three fantastic photographers and great friends capturing our day. Kenny Kim, Tomas Flint and Vanessa Joy were so great to work with and they documented every detail of our day.

We now have to go through over 6,000 photos and are working on narrowing them down to plenty for you to see. In the meantime here's one from the thousands that we liked.

More photos from our wedding and also from our amazing honeymoon in Ireland and London coming soon. Can't wait to share with you all!
