blissed photography newborn session
Shamra and Eric are one of the first couples who hired me to photograph their wedding when I began shooting on my own about 7 years ago. At the time I had 9 black and white images on my website, and I met couples at cafes and showed them hand-printed, silver halide photographs. When they recently asked me to photograph their new little one, Mason, I was simply ecstatic. So precious are each tiny finger and toe, each perfectly formed ear, and soft head fuzz…
Too many monkeys!
blissed photography pregnancy session
While this photo session was originally about Pamela’s belly, it quickly became about Her Sweetness, Miss Thea, as my camera couldn’t magnetically get over her adorability-factor. The proof is in the pictures. So darn cute!!
65th wedding anniversary at the Sunset Club
It’s incredible to consider the love and life and Jacki and Carl, as they married just as World War II was ending. Carl mentioned in a speech that everyone told them “war marriages won’t last,” but to see this couple admire each other with abandon as they celebrated their 65th wedding anniversary clearly shows the beat the odds. They celebrated with generations of family and many friends at the Sunset Club, and I was extremely grateful to witness such a dynamic celebration. They dined and danced, and Jacki’s nephew sang a few Sinatra songs with the live band. Their grandson created a beautiful slideshow of pictures from their childhood through their 65 years of marriage, and there was hardly a dry eye in the crowd to see such a collection of images. Moments like these reinforce how grateful I am to be a photographer, and an observer and cataloger of life’s celebrations.
- I love the black and white one. It reminds me of the 50's. What a beautiful shoot!
- Oh I am so in LOVE with this beautiful couple! 65 years is simply inspiring!
- Truly an inspiration - I hope that is Bill and I someday, amazing!!! Gorgeous pics Laura!
Grant Lee Phillips tonight at Tractor Tavern
I just shot Grant Lee Phillips at KEXP, and I’m quite smitten. During his live radio performance, Cheryl Waters said that his music is “moody and intoxicating,” to which he replied, “yes… I am moody and intoxicated…” Don’t miss his show tonight at Tractor Tavern.
4 years ago today…
Four years ago today I met and developed a major crush on this boy, and now we’re planning our wedding celebration. To tell our friends and family to save our wedding date, we decided to make a video.
Neither of us had every shot video, or even knew how to use the video function on my Canon 5DII, but we miraculously figured out how to shoot, edit and post a video all within a Sunday afternoon. We filmed each other, then used a tripod for some shots. It was a fun process, and we were surprised at how easy it was to edit and upload if from iMovie. It’s not a perfect video, but we’re pretty proud of it for our first attempt. Our video ended up on a Danish wedding inspiration blog, though my Danish is pretty spotty (Skål!), this blog does have some pretty awesome ideas.
102 days to go…
- That video is SO cool!!! I am glad the kitties made an appearance. You two are adorable and oh so talented!
- This is awesome!! You guys are so creative. Great video!
- Thanks for the kind words. Well, I was impressed - there's such a nice atmosphere in that video, and I felt it could inspire my people out there :) Oh, and I'm very impressed by your Danish so far - it's certainly the most important Danish word to know :)
