So its been a little while since I updated. Time is flying by! I cannot believe its March already. Erin and Jack's wedding is coming up then we have another month off until our big season starts! I've been ordering proof books, parent albums and designing albums like its nobody's business! I actually passed up a trip to H&M with my mom so I could finish up some things. You know its serious when you pass up the oppurtunity to bat your eyes at your mom and have her buy you things you don't need! So I've been promising our new website... although I feel like its been put on hold. I feel like most of the pictures are already in the places they need to be and ready to go but I'm not ready yet! I haven't really had time to just work on it and give my whole heart to it. So until then... it'll just have to wait.
I did have some information about booking with us this year! Once May hits, we're literally going to be off the map for a while. We have at least 1 to 3 weddings every weekend until November! Speaking of November, we loved only having 2 weddings in November in 2008. It gave us the chance to open our studio, catch up on work, and spend time with family during the holiday... not to mention going out on black friday to get our extremely too large t.v.!! So as of right now we do not have any weddings in November and we're only going to book 2 or 3. Since it is the month of thanksgiving, and we have so much to be thankful for, we've decided to give the first 3 couples to book with us a nice discount on all our albums, coffee table books, guest books, and parent albums! So if you're looking for a photographer and your wedding is in November, give us a call and take advantage of our little discount we're offering!!
As for the rest of year, our availability is very little. June we still have a friday or two available. July is more than booked, its over the top! We will be flying to Utah to shoot Jeremy & Kristin's wedding so that adds to how booked the month is! Its like a little vacation right in the middle of the chaos! We have a couple Friday's & Sunday's still available for August but our Saturdays are booked. I'm really looking forward to August because we'll get to go back to Taylor Mansion (one my FAVORITE spots) and we're shooting my good friend and wedding planner Meleka Murphy's wedding! September is another busy month for us, and it seems like the 19th is going to be a HUGE wedding blowout this year in Columbus. I can't tell you how many inquiries I received for this date, so I know Jackie & Tommy are glad they booked us so far in advance! Again with September we still have Friday's & Sunday's free! October is one of my favorite months during the wedding season. I always feel like the colors are gorgeous and here in Ohio during the fall, you can't go wrong! We're available to book one more wedding on the 10th, and only one friday wedding on the 2nd! Coty's cousin is getting married in Indiana on the 17th and we're so excited to be GUESTS at their wedding. When she first told us she wanted us to do their engagement session and not their wedding, I was somewhat excited that I was going to get to do the fun stuff! We shot their e-session here in Ohio at a pumpkin patch and it was so fun! I know Coty and I are so excited to be guests for once, to be able to drink champagne, wear something other than black and dance the night away!! Cannot wait Kayla & Matt!!! We also are shooting a wedding at Miami University! We shot a wedding at O.U. last October and it was amazing! So we're looking forward to Alicia & Sean's wedding, we already know its going to be gorgeous in Oxford that time of year!
As for December... this is where I get torn! We booked 5 weddings in December and it was like Christmas didn't even happen! We've made it a point to figure out what we're doing this year because I think my mother-in-law was going to kill me if we didn't make plans to come again! So we're only available for one or two more weddings in December! We will not be booking a wedding on the 26th because we'll be in Indiana with Coty's family! It'll be the first time that we split the day up between the two families. So we'll spend Christmas Even with my family, along with Christmas morning, then leave around noon to get to Indiana by dinnertime! You'll learn this very quickly how to make both sides happy! I knew Christmas morning was my family's thing and when I asked Coty's mom what she'd rather have and she said dinner so it was perfect. Both our Mom's get their way! You'll also learn that as husband and wife, when the Momma's are happy... you're happy! I can't tell you how many arguments Coty and I have had over things like this. When it comes down to it, we just love our Mom's and want to make them happy!
Anyways, I hope all is going with everyone! I'll be featuring my friend Meleka on here shortly with some new trends for the season! Right about now is when I was going over little details for our June wedding. Trends change every so often and I totally changed my flowers a couple months before, but it was okay, they turned out amazing! Anyways, we love you all! Hope you're enjoying the sunshine we've had the last couple days!
