First off, I just received my latest toy-er-tool (the Canon 35mm 1.4L lens) in the mail this week, and I used it to snap some photos of a recent Engagement Guest Book I assembled. I’ll show you those photos in a second, but first things first.

Do you want to know the internet’s best kept photography secret (this fact may be debatable)? You do? Good! Because I’m going to share it with you. You’ve probably all heard of B&H and Adorama–there’s a few more large online stores out there, too, but these seem to be the biggest. They certainly have a wonderful selection of everything photography, and I do order a lot of things from Adorama. But, my number one favorite store to purchase camera and lenses from is Canoga Camera. They are a Canon authorized seller (as well as Nikon), and they usually have lower prices than the “big guys.” For instance, my lens I just purchased–$100 cheaper from Canoga than B&H and Adoroma. You get the same quality stuff, warranties, etc (no gray market stuff there) for less. Now that’s a deal. Plus, they always give me a call after I place an order to confirm that it really was me virtually swiping my card–in short, they have excellent customer service and awesome prices. Definitely check them out for your next photography purchase.

And now to this post’s other topic: Engagement Guest Books. I first introduced them here on my blog, but I just wanted to share some photos from Kerry and Josh’s Guest Book. These are seriously a great way to preserve and share your engagement photos with your guests, while receiving a wonderful keepsake in return.
