For those of us who struggle coming up with a set color palette for your weddding (I can’t narrow it down at all!), I think Louise’s idea of focusing on bright colors is fabulous! Just look how beautifully her pictures turned out. Here are some other ideas and resources for brides looking for some bright [...]
{I stole these wonderful pics from the wedding off of the Photographer’s website…check it out for many other shots from many other beautiful weddings} The photographers at Louise and Gabe’s wedding were incredible. They were so sweet and enthusiastic, and stayed all night, even to the impromptu unofficial after party at my house! The details [...]
I could not be more pleased to bring you the wonderfully unique wedding of Louise and Gabe. Louise is the beautiful big sissy of my bff Mayzr, and I absolutely idolized her growing up (and still do).

I am not the only one looking forward to this film, as several amazing projects have been popping up inspired by Maurice Sendak [...]
Hey everyone! It feels SO good to be back, Aspen was gorgeous and so much fun, but the lack of technology got to be a little frustrating. Thank you to everyone who took the time to take that pesky survey that kept popping up in lieu of my regular posts. I really appreciate the feedback [...]
