My First US Wedding

This Monday I will be leaving for my first US Wedding.
Chie and Chris (http://www.goodmanandfernandez.com/) are from California but they will be getting married in Chris' hometown in Pennsylvania. (Note: When going to their site, just ignore the IE error that may pop up and continue browsing their site).
I will be in Pennsylvania from May 22 - Jun 1. If there are US brides wishing to have me shoot their engagement photos or want to book me as their 2nd photographer, I am willing to extend my stay and go to another state as necessary. You may contact me by email (info@renegaviola.com, this week only) or by cellphone (632-917-841-7590). We can discuss details and pricing since you don't have to shoulder my flight back to Manila!
This is also a short notice that I may not be available to answer emails from May 22 - Jun 8.
To all my other clients, wish me luck, a safe trip and a wonderful coverage!

US VISA

Yesterday I went to the US Embassy for my non-Immigrant VISA interview. I was one of the lucky ones to pass the interview. This afternoon I went back to pickup my passport and was pleasantly surprised that I got a 5-year VISA! I thought that after 9/11, passing applicants can only get a maximum of 6 months.
My reason for renewing my VISA? Read my next entry. . .
