We had a small snafu with our web hosts over the weekend during a migration, and were down for a day or so, but we’re back!  Sorry about that guys!

Check the twitter feed…

Things have been quiet around the studio late – we’re still finishing the move and getting settled and taking our last breather time off before the good weather comes (hopefully soon)! However, I (Robert) have been working on sharing a lot more of the interesting trends and tidbits we track from our favorite blogs.  Rather [...]

Studio is moving!

For our current (and prospective) clients, many of you have had a chance to shoot with us in our studio, down in Pioneer Square.  We’ve loved the space, which is in the basement (original street level) of the Grand Central building.  However, the one regret we’ve had is that it’s a bit dark, and our [...]

Come see us at the DAR Rainier Bridal Show on 6/24!

Summer is now officially here, marking the start of the “prime” wedding season in Seattle.  We’ve been quiet on the blog because we’ve been busy on location with our couples, but we wanted to pop up and get the word out about a wedding show we’re participating in this week at the DAR Rainier Chapter [...]

Photo management for the rest of us

If you take a lot of photos like we do, it’s easy to lose track of all of them.  Keeping them organized can be a big part of the challenge.  If you’re a Mac user, iPhoto is normally the default answer.  But what about Windows users? For our friends and families on PCs, we recommend [...]

Tripods on the go, without an aching back

One of the things that we don’t like about portable cameras is that they don’t do very well in low light conditions (think: inside, nighttime, etc).  Although cameras like the Canon S90 that I wrote about last month have taken great strides in performance, most of them fall short of what you can get out [...]

Our new studio + new red-eye sessions for 2010!

As wedding photographers, most of our work is on location.  As such, we haven’t maintained space in our studio for indoor shoots.  That is, until now! I’m excited to announce that last Friday, we joined forces with a few other photographers from Studio Brick, a gallery and studio space in Pioneer Square.  Joining up with the [...]

Q&A: Why is all day coverage important?

One of the most common questions we get from couples is how much our hourly rate is.  Many are surprised by our response: “We don’t have one.” Why?  Good question.  To answer the question, it will help to know a little more about our own wedding.

(Belated) Christmas at the Studio

Christmas is one of Kelly’s favorite times of year.  Not only does she get to rock non-stop Christmas tunes (which, I have determined, Pandora encourages all too much), but it’s also time for the annual end-of-year “studio work quarter.” I spent my fall slogging away on the website and marketing materials: we refreshed our entire [...]
