PRIIME COLLECTIONS » A beautiful and simple way to share my travels /  by Vivian Chen

When I'm not photographing weddings, I'm spending my time traveling, hiking and exploring the great outdoors. Up until recently, my Instagram feed was where I collected and share these photos. I love using Instagram but when you have over 1000 images on a feed, it was difficult for me to point people to photos from a specific trip. This is where Priime Collections comes in! I've been using Priime for almost a year now and it's my go-to iPhone photography editing app. The filters and editing tools are easy to use and they really help enhance my landscape and nature photography. Today they've launched a new feature: Priime Collections, which offers a clean and simple way to share and display groups of photos. (Think of them as photography portfolios or albums.) I was invited to test out the beta last month absolutely loved it! Priime Collections also includes a Featured section so you can peruse through the work other photographers. My Mendocino collection (among a few others) are featured this week, but definitely check back often as they're constantly updating and showcasing new collections. In the mean time, feel free to poke around my Priime Collections page! (I definitely plan to use it to share future adventures!)

Green Room at the War Memorial Wedding » San Francisco /  by Vivian Chen

When two childhood friends, both equally talented cello players that perform internationally, get married, you can bet they'll do it in style. Gold accents and grand king's tables fit perfectly in the Green Room at the War Memorial Opera House, providing the couple with the perfect backdrop for their Downton Abbey inspired nuptials.
