a World Away Event

Being a part of the wedding industry, I love planning weddings and events.  I would also like to give back.  My dear friend, Elley Ho of Elley Photography. www.elleyphotography.com
Elley is part of NEIO (Nepal Eduction Initiative Organization) and stayed for four weeks in 3 mountain villages in Nepal in September of 2010.  After her trip, we sat down and had lunch.  She shared her trip with me and and her amazing images that was taken by her and Scott Taylor.  I was speechless.  I felt grateful to what we have and I appreciate life in a new profound perspective.

We wanted to raise money for NEIO and also showcase the beautiful work they have put forth in the villages of Nepal and the journey Elley and Scott took together.  We decided to put together a photo exhibit to raise money.  I am truly honored to be a part of this experience and I am so thankful to all the sponsors that either donated their services for the raffle and their wonderful dessert.

I want to share a few more pictures of the event.
Please also visit Elley's Blog to see more of the pictures she took:
