Chad and Aarthi’s Wedding Links:

I lived in India for 5 months right out of college and Chad and Monica’s wedding brought the memories flooding back. From the amazingly colorful saaris to the naan and paneer for dinner, it was a full sensory experience. We got some unique shots in the rain on the Stone Arch Bridge – even though it was tough getting there with 4 huge golf umbrellas (the you Target!), I love the foggy look of the skyline and how the colors of the vests and dresses popped in the diffused light. Some other random memories: Chad and Monica’s athletic choreographed dance, Monica;s huge smile all day long, the way there obviously cared so much about each other and how grounded they were in their faith. I’m sure I will never hear vows like that again: it was well-crafted poetry from the heart that left not a dry eye in the crowd – thanks for being such a great example you guys! -Judd and Josh

If you want to feel fat and lazy, go watch an ironman triathalon (2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike “ride”, followed by a full 26.2 mile marathon). The mass start of the open water at sunrise was a sight to behold. My brother in law and cousin participated – it took them about 12 hours to compete. Don’t think I’ll be doing that anytime soon…

I also got to challenge myself tonight with some horse photography – an image I got in my mind and we had some clients with horses (Maria, Monica, “t”, and “Lookit” and Cookie the jealous dog). I originally wanted the shots really dark but the sky was too cool so I went with it. Thanks to flash ladies Liz and Jessi! -Judd

Miles and Meghan’s Wedding Links:

Got the new phones hooked up today – all appointments will be at the downtown Stillwater studio from now on! Lights and backdrops go up Wednesday. We’re putting up a steel wall that will look like the outdoors that might take another week or so but it will be really cool. Chipotle style…

I’m doing two or three complimentary destination family or portrait sessions in Playa Del Carmen Mexico December 3,4 and 6 – need some beach models! Let us know if you are interested – or do you want to stay in Minnesota in early December?! Ha. -Judd

Here are some shots of our new location in downtown Stillwater – including the demolition crew! 317 South Main Street is the address, between The Daily Grind Coffee Shop and Barbara Ann’s Chocolate Shop near the Dock Cafe and The Freighthouse. It’s a great spot and seconds from tons of creative downtown Stillwater locations – more pics and video of the demo to come. -Judd
