talk about perfect timing. we just missed the storm that Leah & Nick had to endure 
I’m so glad that we were able to get some great stuff by the lake. I can’t wait for you guys to see all the images. You were both so adorable together, I really enjoyed working with you guys. I can’t wait to see what the wedding day will bring for the two of you. Beautiful, beautiful things await!
What a crazy day!! I couldn’t believe how much it was dumping when we were doing your engagement pics. You guys were real troopers that day. Thanks for ice skating I know it’s not easy when you can’t feel your hands and feet LOL.
You guys are true rockstars in my book. You have traveled from San Luis Obispo to Tahoe 3 times, 2 of those times were in the worst snow storms we’ve had in decades. How you did it, I’ll never guess. Thank you for making the trek up here to see me. I’m thrilled that inspite of the 4 feet of snow that I had to dig through to meet up with you guys was absolutely worth every minute! More fun images to come The weddings is coming up fast! I can’t wait.
What a blessing to work with the two of you. I can’t even begin to tell you what an amazing time I had at your wedding. Doing the pictures of the two of you after was absolutely the best!!! Having that time to play with you guys just made for some seriously fun images. I can’t wait to show you the rest of them!
michael got these fun shots from the get together. sweet baby jesus!!!
Sometimes us fotogs just like to get together and have some fun too. We had a great get together at my studio the other day. after a few drinkies and some cocktail weenies we get a little stupid. great shots, glad we passed the cameras around
We sipped hot totties by the fire pits, we got our feet wet and went shoe shopping, we stopped at the nail salon and repaired a broken nail, we hung out in a parking garage, we played in the snow, we went ice skating…..we did it all you guys!!! I had so much fun playing with you both. Now just imagine what we will do on the wedding day. Look out!!!!
I just realized I have these on my laptop and I know it’s been a horribly long time since I’ve even posted anything from a wedding or engagement session, these were really fun. the snow wasn’t too deep then, but it was nice and crisp that day.
I did some adorable Save the Date cards for them. Jara really wanted some pretty green, so I did this on a watercolor paper. They turned out beautifully.
Right now I am in West Palm Beach thawing out from about 8 feet of snow we have at home. The windows are blowing in a wonderful cool breeze from the ocean, such a pleasant change from the snow. I am writing this from Ethan’s twin bed. His Batman and Superman torso figurines are watching over me from across the room. Ethan and Cal are Lena’s freekin adorable children. Of course there are amazing pictures of them on every seagrass colored wall in the house. It’s like a scene in the ultimate disney movie. The house is perfectly decorated with gorgeous photos of their family everywhere. Those pictures in the Pottery Barn catalogs….that’s Lena’s house, right down to the jars of perfectly matched trinkets. So cozy and chic.
Tomorrow we begin the workshop at Lena’s studio. It’s a great group, and we hope to totally overwhelm them our super powers. I didn’t have room in my seventy plus pound suitcase to bring a camera, but I will shoot with one of Lena’s extras and get some action shots, that is if I can figure out how to shoot it manually.
Just before I left I snapped these with my point and shoot fuji. That’s almost 7 feet of snow, and since I left on Friday, we’ve added another 3 feet to that. Now our fence has completely disappeared. Of couse a snow picture wouldn’t be complete with our snow dog. He’s definitely at home, the more snow the better.
i’ll be back with more from the workshop.
