For us, it’s the experiences, the travel, the connections, and the iconic fashion of weddings that we love. This blog is our inside edit of all those things and more.  

confessions of a photographer:: part 2

1- sometimes i get so sad when i get home and realize that i forgot to try the cake. (but that rarely happens)

2- before i was a photographer, i used to want to be a healthy food blogger. (go ahead and laugh at the irony)

3- outside of photography life, i am not as outgoing as i may seem. more often that not, i would rather stay in and watch movies than go out to a bar.

4- i am a canon girl. but my first camera was a nikon.

5- i went to school for creative advertising, specializing in graphic design. until my professor pulled me aside in my portfolio class and says- “astrid. you are not a graphic designer. i am sorry, but you are a writer” and that day was born my copywriting degree. i just sent him an email a few weeks ago thanking him so much for having that conversation with me.

6- i once forced the primary photographer to take me to get a chocolate covered twinkie after a wedding. (i’m a GREAT second shooter! ;-) )

7- one day i would like to trick my husband into becoming my assistant.

8- no matter how many weddings i have shot, i still get nervous before every wedding. i’m kinda hoping it always stays that way.

9- today is my birthday :)
