New Fash: Canon Speedlite 430EXII

New Fash: Canon Speedlite 430EXII

I was sick of waiting for my off-brand camera flash to finish charge in-between photos. The flash we were using was cheap, but my husband argued that all flashes were relatively the same. He’s a film guy and never had much use for strobe lighting. Of course, I was right!. My husband did the leg work on researching the best price and quality flashes. We shoot on a Canon, so we wanted a good flash that would communicate with my camera. He started looking at the big brother of the Canon Speedlite 430EXII, the Canon 580EXII, but felt that it was more money than we were willing to spend. We decided to step down to the Canon Speedlite 430EXII, feeling comfortable with both the price and all the positive reviews.

Macy’s Celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month

I am a member of the Everywhere Society and was provided compensation for this post. As always, all opinions are my own.

In celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, Macy’s and Vanidades put together an event at Macy’s Miami International in Miami, Florida where the first 200 customer got to get their pictures taken with Dora the Explorer’s friend Diego. I was lucky enough to attend the event and be a part of the festivities. Macy’s put together an amazing event with that was a huge hit.
