The time has come for even MORE exciting news!

Since blogging about my Fall Bookings for one-on-one LOVEe Consults, there has been much chatter from people in the Southwest states showing interest! It just so happens that I will be in the Denver area at the end of September and I felt like it was the perfect opportunity to offer a Group LOVEe Consult!

What?!?!? A Group?!?! Here's the scoop:




When:

Wednesday, September, 29, 2010



Where:

Denver, Colorado!!!!!

The location of the workshop will be held in The Corner Office, which is part of The Curtis Hotel, right downtown! We'll have a super cool, inspiring area, all to ourselves!



Who:

Photographers who want to take their business to the next level and have been yearning for some mentoring to get there! My goal is to keep this group very small, so you still get the one-on-one treatment that is so special about LOVEe Consults. There's also huge benefits, relationships and advice that come out of a group environment as well, which is an added bonus!



How is a Group LOVEe Consult different from a one-on-one consult?

The group consult will have a group element to it. The day will be heavily based on critique on your business, branding, ideas, goals, inspiration etc. We will still be covering all of the topics that we do in a normal consult, which are:

The Artist
Intense Critique
Goal Setting
Marketing
Submissions
Equipment and Shooting Techniques
Inspiration
Open Q&A!


The night will also conclude with a sweet dinner with yours truly!



What's my investment for a Group LOVEe Consult?

Here's the brilliant part! Since it's not one-on-one, it's only $500!




Remember, I do want to keep this to a very small and intimate group, so spaces are super limited!



To reserve your spot, sign up here!

I'm super excited to share the love! (cheezy, but true!)  DENVER, here we come!

LOVEe

This past weekend was a special treat! We didn't photograph a wedding, we photographed a reception! Daniel and Venina are both from Indonesia and had their traditional wedding a couple of weeks ago back in their home country! I welcomed the chance to shoot a reception-only event and their party was absolutely stunning! Their event took place in the Dowling Studio at the Guthrie Theater, but the best part was their actual dinner was in a small theater...that they rarely rent out for events! It was such a great surprise! I can't tell you how many times I have photographed in this space and never knew there was this magical little theater behind the doors! Event Couture made sure that all of Venina's hand-made details were in place for her big event! (And when I say hand made...everything from the floral arrangements to the cute little seating tags were all her creation!)

The setting of Daniel and Venina's reception was the perfect fit for them! Well constructed, creative, modern and dramatic...all of these things reflect their two personalities perfectly!

My all-time-favorite part of their day came down to one thing: Their flower girls! They totally stole the show...




Congratulations to Daniel and Venina on your marriage!

LOVEe

Here's the deal! I've known Amber since....well....basically, I can't remember my life without her being in it! Since we were wee-little-ones, she has been my partner-in-crime, my best friend and diagonal twin! (Yes, diagonal...inside joke!) She is now engaged to THE most amazing man for her! Joe is Mr. Calm, Mr. Easy Going...and judging by their photos, Mr. Studly! No, really, I've noticed the way that he just adored and protects Amber and I couldn't imaging a more perfect guy for her to spend the rest of her life with!

These two share a passion for all-things-athletic. (This is kind of necessary, since Amber is one of the most competitive people I've ever met...don't be surprised if you catch her with a stop watch in her hand...regularly!) Among their athletic endeavors, they have a true love for cycling! This was the perfect element to bring into their engagement session and clearly where they are at ease and just have fun!




Congratulations to Amber and Joe on their engagement! I'm SO excited for their wedding...believe it or not...I get to be IN a wedding?!?!?! YEAH!!!! Love you two so much!

LOVEe

Allison actually reminds me a lot of myself! Maybe it's the blonde hair, but her personality is SO fabulous and I was instantly drawn to her spark-for-life when she first walked into the studio! Now, bring in Jason to the mix and this is one. hot. couple!

Allison is also a fashion designer, so her creative energy and passion for details were flowing when she started dreaming up their engagement session! We decided to go with a bit of a traveling theme, since both Allison and Jason love to take trips together! Mix that in with THE most gorgeous late-summer-light and a little bit of magic happens!




Congratulations to Allison and Jason on their engagement! You two are an AMAZING couple and I know your wedding is going to be just as fabulous as you are!

LOVEe

There are certain images that get me SUPER pumped up on a wedding day. As I'm going thru and editing Amer and Rita's amazing Lebanese wedding tonight, there is so much that I can share with you! They had a ton of culture, a beautiful ceremony and one insane dance party...but as I am editing, I am continually drawn to and inspired by the portraits from their day!

Amer and Rita's wedding was a true family affair! Their brother and sister were there 'best' and all of the nephews, nieces and cousins rounded out the rest of the wedding party! Photos are suppose to be fun on a wedding day and I think the portrait part of the day should reflect a sense of art, personality and intensity of all that is going on around us on this very important day!

So, without further adieu, I've decided to share with you the images that I keep coming back to...and keep on being inspired by!




Congratulations to Rita and Amer on their gorgeous wedding!

LOVEe
