Not a day goes by when we’re thankful that we have the opportunity to take senior pictures in Stillwater. There are tons of little nook and crannies loaded with texture and character, and a variety of spaces with enough sun and shade to capture a wide variety of looks that our high school seniors love. The seniors that come in are all spunky and amazing and willing to just have fun and create with us – which is awesome.

We’ve only opened our “wedding specialist” fine art studio to high school seniors for just over year now, so this is going to be a busy and exciting 2nd summer! We’re not going to be able to blog all of these videos this summer, but here are a few recent ones (We’ll post the six ambassador videos after the June 2 release / pizza party):

As photographers we love to challenge ourselves with some “outside the box” shooting and here is our latest effort! Special thanks to Jennae, Amber, Kelsey, Josh, and our brides/models Elaine, Monica, and Melody – this shoot was a ton of fun, and yes Josh wasted a perfectly good Mojito on his pant leg in the video! -Judd & Josh

I was feeling a little flat creatively Saturday since we’ve had so many portrait sessions the last two weeks. Traffic was jammed in Stillwater due to construction. Jason and Tara called stuck in traffic so we just went north of Stillwater to photograph their engagement portraits. They turned out awesome – we’ve been to this site a number of times and we found a number of images we’ve never captured before – love that! Here they are… video coming soon! Jason and Tara are so cool, they hung out with us for a few hours afterward – a great day all-around! -Judd

Mobile Post: This is our first live post while shooting a wedding! We’re having a blast shooting Nick and Jessie’s big day. We just climbed a truck to get a better perspective on the Minnehaha Falls. Awesome!

Nick and Jessie had some exciting moments throughout their wedding day! For the first time ever, I climbed onto a truck to get a better perspective on the bridal party. We had to exploit the beautiful Minnehaha Falls for the shot! Later in the day, we went to Joe Sensor’s and witnessed the 2010 Kentucky Derby drama while Nick (loudly) informed us of the countdown to get back on the bus. From there, we headed to Royal Cliff where Nick and Jessie fooled hundreds of people with their first dance. Nick demanded a new song from the DJ and they began the routine from there, classic! After a visit from the TC the bear, the dancing went late into the night. Thanks to all for a great day and it was awesome to see many of you whom I haven’t seen in a long time! Cheers to Nick and Jessie 🙂

The vacuum cleaner came out this morning to clean up some of the sprinkles that fell from one of our iced models yesterday during the fashion session of a lifetime! Soon to be wed Amber Ayers brought in 4 incredible models to show off their stuff. Dominique, Jes, Ruth and C(K)aitli(y)n (seems we fail at name spelling) gave us a creative and candy filled adventure. We went outside for some pics in front of the Eiffel Tower, oops! I mean the Stillwater bridge and also tested out some of our new backdrops. Jes, we hope all the candy washed out, but if it didn’t at least you wont have to go far for a sweet treat. Two words: in-credible!

If you are looking for a yoga instructor and/or contortionist, look no further than Nikki and Higher Power Yoga. Shout out to Chris and Josh for constructing the floating yoga mat and Jordan for the location. Josh needed two hours afterward for his feet to warm back up. The lighting was perfect for these shots – thanks Nikki for the challenge! If you want to see more, go to our facebook page; including some candids of the photographers. 🙂
