TALA + CODY | DESTINATION WEDDING - FRENCH COUNTRYSIDE | BOUND BY

bound-by-destination-wedding-france-chateau-tala-kolb-dordogne-amelia-strauss-photography-1

Welcome to a quick peek into Tala and Cody’s charming destination wedding in the countryside of France at Chateau Forge du Roy.

We traveled out to meet them at this amazing venue on a train out of Paris, where we were working for the last half of the summer.  I’ve been holding on to their images since August, as I planned to share their wedding in a blog post on our new Bound By blog - but thought I’d go ahead and sneak these few over here while we’re working on the launch.  Plan on checking back for more sneaks of shoots from the last few months that I’ll be posting on this blog over the next couple weeks.  And get excited about the Bound By blog!

In the meantime - congratulations to the lovely couple, and ouvrez vos livres…(this is the only French I know)…

A GRUNGE PORTRAIT - HIDING OUT FROM THE RAIN

I grabbed this image while my clients were taking cover from the rain before their ceremony.  Right after this, it started hailing in Atlanta.  I like that this image happened organically, while they were waiting on me to pack up and get an umbrella…and I love the contrast of the grungy, rusty setting and these perfect looking people…

AIMEE AND JOHN’S ENGAGEMENT - PART 1 {LOS ANGELES PHOTOGRAPHER}

los-angeles-engagement-aimee-and-john-field

WOW!  Apparently it’s March.  Where is this year flying off too?

So, I am VERY excited about this Month - I have so many new projects and adventures.  Lately I’ve been swamped under album orders and deadlines, and preparing for WPPI, where I get to reconnect with my Alpha Kappa Camera Girls!  That’s right - we have a penthouse suite in Vegas…don’t worry, there will be plenty to share about that!

I thought y’all might want to have a look at Aimee and John’s Valentine’s Day Engagement Session here in Los Angeles.  I just love the light in these images - the West Coast isn’t bad on the eyes, and neither are these two.  I have the best story to share about Aimee and John, as well as the most fun part of the session, so it looks like this is going to roll on to the blog in installments..

For now, here’s a random peek into the day.

YAY!  I can’t wait to share my favorites from the day - and I also have some pretty big 101 in 1001 items that are about to be checked off on the blog.  (As well as some that have been completed for a while!)  Give it up for MARCH…

ASHLEY & OWEN - A FAVE NIGHT SHOT {LOS ANGELES WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER}

I cannot WAIT to share the images from Ashley and Owen’s incredible wedding. For the meantime, I’ve been culling down through their digital images - and I have been just blown away by the intimacy in our night series…

So, this wedding was absolutely gorgeous, and I’m so excited to share it on the blog! Check back soon for a full post once I have the film images. These two amaze me in so many ways - and it was an honor to photograph their wedding day!

ERIN & ADAM’S ENGAGEMENT SESSION - SOME DIGITAL FAVES {LOS ANGELES WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER}

Okay, so I shot the vast majority of this session on film, which I’m still waiting to get back - but in the meantime, I intend to make Erin happy and give her something of a sneak peek on the blog!  What does that mean?  You will see this session posted roughly three times on this blog!  Which is fantastic, because how can you NOT just love these two, and also, this will force me to blog more…

I’ll give all the behind the scenes details and location and image information in the next post - so definitely check back for that.  Erin and Adam are a delight!  We had a great time, and really explored some interesting ideas together.  Most of all, I just had a great time with them!  Can you tell?

One from probably my favorite series of the entire day:

ERIN & ADAM’S ENGAGEMENT SESSION - JUST A PEEK

So, while I’m waiting to get back into production mode, I thought I’d put up a couple images from Sunday’s engagement session with Erin and Adam. (Before you get confused - we are working with TWO couples this year named Erin and Adam…I know, what are the odds?)  We did a very themed shoot - which was a lot of fun and a different approach for me.  The original plan was to style outside, but the weather pushed us indoors - so we styled a winter white studio session for the first part of their shoot.  THEN we headed outside when the rain cleared and set up our on location theme and just had a lot of fun with it!

Erin and Adam, you are so much fun, I truly had a blast hanging out with you two!  I am so excited about your wedding and getting to work with you this year.

I’m pretty pumped to share the images from this session on the blog - as soon as they are edited, I’ll have them posted here!

Save The Date…

A peek at the studio session… A little Anthro inspired perhaps?

So many gems and awesomeness to come!  So, get stoked for Erin and Adam!  Congratulations to you both…
