We are so blessed this year and this one made it more special. We just had our interview last Wednesday at the US Embassy and everything went so well. We knew that we were APPROVED since they got our passports and all I was hoping for was we could get at least 6 months VISA, but pure luck just came coz me and my family got a 10-year multiple entry visa to USA.

It’s not yet final, but I will be in the US from March 31 to April 20, 2009. I will be in the following areas - LA, San Francisco, Las Vegas and Alaska.

To those who are interested in getting my services (weddings, engagement/prenup, post-nup and portraits) on those dates, now is the time to inquire so I can really fix my schedule. There will only be limited slots only since my main purpose in going to the US is for pleasure and visit relatives there.

Please email me at nelwinuy@gmail.com for pricing details and availability.
