For being not being around all summer we have a lot for this news section of the blog! when we received a phone call from Instyle requesting a phone interview and then a follow up a written interview we were smiling from ear to ear. There was more to the interview so we’ll see if there is more to come….like stuff about our collaboration with the one and only amazing DOLCI ODILLE. this is very exciting for us. yay. Check out the two articles HERE and HERE. thank you both, Chrissy & Christa

The same wedding from below also had an incredible feature on design*sponge which was presented by one of my favorite bloggers. check it out HERE.

feeling totally blessed that we have been traveling all over this summer shooting some pretty amazing weddings. the only downfall to traveling is that the blog gets neglected. fortunately we have the new york times giving little sneak peeks to one of the weddings from this summer in Portland, ME….

when i said i am really behind on blogging i meant it. remember way back when we were in Malibu…ohhhh….i don’t know….end of June and beginning of July. It was a wednesday wedding in the most gorgeous Malibu setting i have every seen. Mountains and ocean. and the most mind blowing 30 foot gradient walls throughout the house. the colors you see below are the real deal. ben and crystal, thank you so much for this 100% full of beauty day. both of you shined all day and made us very happy photographers. We were very excited to shoot our very first transcendental meditation wedding seeing that my husband is a sidha it was very appropriate. This was a fantastic flashdance wedding. best of all it was the first time ALL of us from flashdance got to work together- michael, max, brian and us.

below is the smilebooth

here is the dance of the flash

Melissa and Colby not only had a beautiful wedding but they had a couple serious parties. these two know how to have a good time. even as the photographer, not knowing all of the people or stories involved, i laughed a lot. When i walked into the rehearsal dinner i noticed a lot of missing teeth on the men. it wasn’t until Whitney connected the dots for me. these guys make up the atlanta thrashers. So needless to say, this wedding was insanely fun- the boys were rowdy, the girls were beautiful, the jokes were rolling, the dance floor was shaking, a the newlyweds smiled and laughed the night away. Melissa and Colby are the type of couple you just want to be around- they are sweet, funny and so in love.

and a big shout out to our man matt miller to shooting this wedding with us. we have some exciting about matt coming up soon so stay tuned : )
