Stacey | Russell – Married!
#nottodaycovid is the perfect hashtag for Stacey & Russell’s wedding day! They originally planned to have an August wedding in 2020 and then moved it to October of 2020. As more restrictions started being put in place in Anchorage and the limits on gathering sizes started to decrease, they were able to squeeze in their wedding of about 25 ppl before the mandates got lowered to a whopping 10 people in Anchorage! They were also able to have their wedding on the last day of Fall because the next day the snow came! Talk about getting lucky more than once! Thinking back to this wedding day there were so many…

Katie | Mahear – Married!
Back when I met Katie and Mahear in July of 2019, we had discussed a May wedding for 2020. I look back and I am so relieved that they ended up moving their wedding to February after meeting with me.

Orainda (Orainda’s Bridal Boutique), Sharon (Elegante Light Photography), and I started talking about collaborating back in October. We were trying to find the right spot to showcase a new venue that also allowed us to capture that vibe of romance and simplicity. No loud or bright colors, or anything boho or rustic. We wanted…

Click, Click, Click…A Fall Styled Shoot
Oh, styled shoots, you’ve got to love them, but I kinda hate them too! LOL! The competition is so fierce these days with everyone doing styled shoots that I get stressed. I guess there’s so much pressure to make something look “pretty,” they can also be quite pricey, and if you are all not on the same page with the vision, it can be a bust! But when I got an email from Chelsa with Chelsea J. Photography about possibly collaborating on a styled shoot, I jumped at the chance! Because one, I love her work, and two, I haven’t had the chance to work with her. And there was…
