Hey friends! I’m out of the country visiting my twin sister Kelly in Germany. YAY!!! It’s been slightly chilly but completely FANTASTIC. Does it get better than fairy tale castles, german beer, large hunks of pork, and medieval chastity belts? I’m not sure…but I am heading to PARIS next and I have a good feeling about it. :) I’ll be spreading the Rivets and Roses love ALL around the world!
Here are a few shots I’ve taken with my iPhone using Instagram. Most of the images I took yesterday in Rothenburg and the Bavarian part of Germany…and the infamous Neuschwanstein! I carry my big Canon with my most places when I travel, but sometimes it’s nice just to snap a quick shot with my iPhone so I can share it almost instantly. Find and follow me on Instagram or my more personal Facebook photography page. —-> Onward to Prague for a day trip then France and Norway. Have any tips? : ) CHEERS.
This is Jackie. Jackie is not only drop-dead beautiful, but she is also the talent behind one of my favorite florists of all time, Munster Rose. Jackie and I have a little collaboration that we’re working on at sunrise tomorrow and I can’t wait to show it to you. Stay tuned for a sneak peek of her amazing work!
So January is a pretty slow month for weddings, but it allows me to shoot my *other* passion: local music. Lucky for me, the dead of winter is when a lot of new, local bands start playing more frequently since the larger touring bands are avoiding our frozen tundra like the plague.
It’s pretty rare for a concert photographer to also love shooting weddings, but I think it’s because my real passion lies in capturing emotion and mood — and both weddings and performances afford me this opportunity many times over. These photos are from the Current’s birthday party on Saturday night at First Avenue. That evening featured music from Haley Bonar, Sims, the Suicide Commandos and Poliça. Sims and Poliça are among my faves, so that was super fun!
On this grey February day I just wanted to share a few lovely bouquets from last year. Enjoy!
This winter has been so brown! Oh how I’ve been yearning for a little color! While it’s nice to have a little snow now to freshen everything up, I still long for green & gold summer days & purple & blue sunsets…which made me think of this pretty little wedding I photographed! Ben & Megan were married in the month of June at a friends house. Personally, one of my favorite parts of their day was stealing them away to get photographs of the two of them alone…such an amazing couple & such a perfect summer day! ciao!
