Lindsey & Mike
Friday, June 17, 2011, 11:10 AM
We had the pleasure of photographing Lindsey & Mike while we were in New York last week. Lindsey is a photographer in the New york area and is a total sweetheart, she reached out to us last spring when we were in NYC and we grabbed some coffee together and got to know each other a little bit. We were so delighted when Lindsey emailed me about scheduling a shoot between her and her husband Mike while we were in the NY area shooting a wedding. 

These two met in the financial world in Lindsey's other life when she used to work in finance before going full time with her photography. These guys are a perfect story of balance and the yin and yang. They just fill in each others weak spots and compliment one anthers strong spots. Put plain and simple, Lindsey & Mike are a totally great team together.

We had a blast hanging out with these two and strolling the streets of New York and then shooting in one of the coolest rooftop decks I have ever seen. These guys made us laugh and invited us without reservation into their "world."  We are so glad they did, we had a mini dance party on the roof where Mike showed us his best moves from the 80's which mostly included him doing the "Roger Rabbit" it was a solid performance ;) The best thing in the world is when people can let their guard down with us, even if that means us dancing like dorks on some roof in NYC. It's moments like that that make this wayyy too much fun to call it a "job."

Stephanie & Adam

Stephanie & Adam are beautiful people who are gracious, compassionate and totally thoughtful. These two got married on the water in Seattle at The Woodmark Hotel. Stephanie & Adam planned a wedding from another state where they are both finishing their residency to become doctors. Planning a wedding out of state always has its own unique challenges. Thankfully they found Aleah & Nick who are a great husband and wife coordinator team that go by Valley and Co to help them plan a spectacular event even though Stephanie & Adam couldn't be here in Seattle to plan. Their wedding went off without a hitch and their party was a blast. Hopefully you were able to check out a few images from their Smilebooth posted on the blog yesterday. It was good times had by all. Enjoy just a little peek into their beautiful day.

Coordinator: Valley and Co
Florist: Floressence 
Officiant: Marylee Lykes
Photobooth: Smilebooth
Carterer: Woodmark Hotel

Stephanie & Adam

Here's a few fun ones from Stephanie & Adam's Smilebooth at their Seattle Wedding! I always end up belly laughing going through these after an event. The Smilebooth's are always endless fun. 

It is so hard to believe we are in the middle of June already! Chris and I are coming off of a crazy couple of months of travel and just got back from NYC last night and are beyond the moon to be home for the next 5 weeks just when Seattle is starting to warm up and get nice! It seems like every year, the irony of our work is that we are out of state for the nicest months of the year here in Seattle, but this year we are getting a lot of our travel out of the way in the fall and spring with some spot dates through the summer but for the most part we are home for the two "pretty months" of Seattle! It is a welcomed first since Seattle is tough to beat in the summers and many-a-BBQ awaits us :)

I've got so much blogging/editing to catch up on in the next couple weeks so stay tuned.

Arizona
Thursday, June 9, 2011, 12:48 PM
About a month ago we ventured to the desert lands of the great state of Arizona. It was my first time to actually stop there for more than just a potty stop driving through. We actually went down a few days before the wedding we were shooting so we could hang out with some of our close friends. We got a call the night before we were leaving from our friends saying they wouldn't be able to make it due to a family emergency. So we decided to make the most of our time and throw together a personal test while we were there. This shoot came together in a little under 10 hours... it was a little crazy. Chris and I had a blast spending the day with Tori and Amanda in Tucson, Arizona. I'm so glad we made the little drive from Scottsdale to Tucson because I loved all the little nooks and crannies all over the city of Tucson. It was hot as hell and the sun was blazing so I slathered on my SPH 1000 which is like my armor for life, and I was ready to conquer. 

Also, a big thank you to those of you who offered some great recommendations to us while we were there! Every time it came time to eat we went to the faithful blog comments you guys left us and they never once failed us. We've got some quality food and fun people hanging out in this little virtual party room!
