Editorial Week-In-Review

After being out of commission for a little while, I started shooting again this week. During which, a number of notables stopped by the IAFF legislative conference, and the President felt it necessary to speak out about the AIG bonuses on Thursday prior to heading out to California.

I hope to plan to continue with the editorial updates, but our wedding season is right around the corner as well, so we will be very busy over the next few months!:)

Here's some of the highlights from this week:
