Captured Moments: Dan O'Day

Captured Moments: Dan O'Day

When I came across Dan's beautiful work I was completely transported into each moment that he captures. I heard the sound of high heels on hard wood floors and the laughter and sweet whispers between a couple in love. I felt the cool valley air and all the excitement and joy that surrounded the groom, his bride and all of their loved ones. His work is truly moving, and I know you will enjoy it as much as I do.

Travel and Bloom: The Southwest

We kicked off the day with a morning hike around Capitol Reef. After the hike we headed to Moab and drove through Arches National Park. It was such an incredible day. I couldn't get Conor Oberst's Moab out of my head, naturally. Thankfully, I had Perry there to serenade me. We hiked until sunset and ended the day beneath the beautiful desert skies. See all the captures...

Featured Wedding: Damsel & Lou

Featured Wedding: Damsel & Lou

We had the pleasure of attending and capturing our dear friends Lou and Damsel's beautiful wedding day in Ohio. Most wedding features are highlighting the bride but for this, we'd like to spotlight the groom and all the special moments he had as he prepared to meet his bride, spent time with his loved ones, and married his one and only. We were also very fortunate to be able to create Lou's wedding band. What a blessing it has been to be part of their great love story. 

Travel & Bloom: Bryce Canyon

Travel & Bloom: Bryce Canyon

I was looking forward to this day's adventure the most because we were going to explore Bryce Canyon National Park. Before my grandpa died he gave me a list of places I must-see and Bryce Canyon was on that list. I couldn't wait to see this geological beauty in person. When looking down from the top it looks like a huge amphitheater made out of beautiful rock formations. It felt like we stumbled across another planet.

I am absolutely blown away by the ultimate power couple, Lucy & Alastair, creators of She Takes Pictures He Makes Films.

Here is just a taste of what these two create. 

Travel & Bloom: Antelope Canyon

Travel & Bloom: Antelope Canyon

Exploring Antelope Canyon was a surreal experience. We had wanted to visit the canyons for a couple years before we finally freed up enough adventure time to go and do it. There are two canyons, upper and lower. We took a truck out across the open desert to explore the upper canyon first. You always see photographs of these majestic places but it isn’t until you experience them for yourself and you truly understand their beauty. It’s not just what the eye sees but it’s what the heart feels and how the experience expands the mind all the while, imprinting a memory that when thought upon will forever bring us back to that special moment. 

Travel & Bloom: Desert lands to the Great Lakes

Travel & Bloom: Desert lands to the Great Lakes

After spending January to May exploring the Hawaiian islands, it’s time for some long stretches of open road lined with ever-changing landscapes. We will pack up and set out from Southern California crossing deserts, canyons, mountains and cities to arrive in the beautiful countryside of my grandparent’s 13-acre property in Michigan. We will visit them for a few weeks and Perry will set up his traveling workshop there until we’re off on our next adventure.

These are the incredible places we will be exploring along the way...

Ring Size Matters

Ring Size Matters

Getting the perfect ring size is crucial. Your ring should fit your finger comfortably; snug enough so that it won’t fall off, but loose enough to slide over your knuckle. Men’s rings typically range from size 8 to 14.

Keep in mind that your fingers can change a whole size depending on temperature, time of day and sometimes even what you eat.
