Weddings Gone Wrong

This little bit of news from the BBC caught my eye this morning. I'm sure there's a lesson to be learned here somewhere. To avoid elaborate bouquet tosses, maybe?

June 6, 2009: Erin & Adam, Stowe, Vermont

My apologies for the long absence - June was a busy month for us! Here are a few select images from our first wedding of the season. Erin and Adam were married at Edson Hill Manor in Stowe. There were some threatening clouds during the afternoon but thankfully the rain stayed away. It was a small, intimate wedding set in a lovely location. Julie Blanner from Coordinately Yours has posted several of our detail photos on her blog here. Congratulations, Erin and Adam!

I love the anticipation and joy in this image.


Erin checks herself out in a car window just before the ceremony. Bit nervous, maybe? :)




The happy couple!

FAQ

A quick note: we have added a sorely needed FAQ to our About section on the site. We feel this will save us some time answering basic questions about our services, while allowing more time to discuss the specific needs of clients.

And, we are shooting our first wedding of the season this weekend - Erin and Adam at Edson Hill Manor in Stowe! Stay tuned for our favorite photos from the wedding next week.

Introducing Wild Magnolia and Willow Album Design

Recently we started working with a new album maker, Rebecca Shostak, who is based out in Santa Monica, California and founded Wild Magnolia Design last year. Becca is unique in that she only offers albums made of recycled and environmentally sustainable materials. Her books are gorgeous, handmade works of art and to top it off they have a very fair price tag. We've been searching for a long time for someone who fits all of these criteria and are delighted to have found Becca! Check out her work here and her unique philosophy here.

For the actual layout, we'll be using Britney Gardner of Willow Album Design. We love her clean, elegant designs and feel that they'll beautifully showcase our documentary shooting style.

Not only are Becca and Britney awesome at what they do, entrusting the album design process to them leaves us time to do what we do best: photographing and photo editing. We are delighted to have found these two wonderfully talented people and we will have a sample album to show off in the near future!

We just received our goodie box this week and wanted to show off some of the materials that Becca offers her clients:
