Backstage: Scenes from a Wedding

Before

After

I can finally show these off

I had to keep this shoot under wraps as I did not know which image they were ultimately going to use, and everything about the wedding was very hush-hush, but daughter and (now) son-in-law approached me at the beginning of August for some updated engagement portraits.

This one was the one they chose to use…

Today’s The Day

Two years ago he proposed. The day is finally here.

From last night’s Rehearsal BBQ in the park.

Resistance is Futile

Look into my eyes . . .

Girls’ Night Out

As many of you know, our daughter is getting married (next Saturday!). Her bridal shower was last Saturday, but it was not a “typical” one. Daughter eschewed gifts and opted instead for a girls’ night out. We got pampered at a local nail salon, Soak, followed by a price conscious dinner. I took the liberty of reserving the studio at Hatch for a little post-supper fun.

There are props at the studio . . .

We had a lot of fun . . .

I did mention the props right? Ali took one look at the headdress and rethought her decision to go veil-less.

We took a little time for some individual shots too.

And finally, a portrait I’ve been wanting for a long time . . .

Model Shoot: Pheenix

Readers may remember the lovely Pheenix. She was one of the models from a portrait class I took last May. She and I have stayed in contact and about a week ago she approached me to do another shoot. We had fun last Wednesday night at Hatch Reno. I’ll be posting more from this shoot in the coming days.
