NEW BLOG DESIGN | 02.23.2010

21 Pictures / 40 Comments

Welcome to our new blog!

You’ll find that while this is still a blog, it offers several new features. Click “About” to read about me and Erin, and also about our associates: Aaron, Dave and Mauricio. Under “Info” you’ll find helpful links, including frequently asked questions, testimonials from our clients, and a list of our recommended vendors, among other things. Click on a category in the “Galleries” drop-down menu to see a few of our favorite weddings, a sample of our portfolios and examples of our albums.

The new design came about after attending a YinYang workshop last year. We gave Ross at Flosites an idea, and he created an entire concept for the blog. All images are posted as a slideshow, which you can view by clicking on the right of the photograph to advance, or the left to go to the previous frame. Alternatively, use the drop-down thumbnails below the image. Click the comment button to leave us a thought, or feel free to share any post with the Facebook or Twitter options on the blog posts. And, it all works on the iPhone.

Our two former blogs are still online (links in the “Our Network” category under “Info”), and we also transferred a few of the most recent posts to the new blog. But we weren’t able to add in all those great comments you have left us on the new design, so if you have time, please feel free to revisit our most recent weddings here.

Thanks to Ross and the entire Flosites team for working so hard with all the tweaks and changes we have made over the last few months. If you are looking for a new blog or Web site, give Flosites a ring. They’ll listen to you and make sure that whatever crazy idea you have in your head translates to reality on the Web.

We’re still filling in some information, specifically workshop dates. Thanks for your patience as this blog continually evolves. This year is just getting started and we have a lot going on, so come back and visit.

Nick

Ben, Nice new blog! But when I click to expand the post, I like it better when all the pictures are expending in that post as well, instead of clicking on each pic. Thats just my opinion. Something like at this site: http://youpluswephotography.com/

(03.04.2010)

Ross

Thanks Nick! We designed Ben's blog especially for his workflow, style and approach to his work - which made his blog layout to be like this, but Glad for liking my own blog (youpluswephotography.com!) I appreciate it :) Ben's is still better though ;)

Just "found" you by looking at the WPJA site. I love all the pics of you doing your thing--it's great to see behind the scenes of other people doing what I do. Thanks.

JESSICA AND JAKE | 02.11.2010

19 Pictures / 0 Comments

New Year’s Eve is one of our favorite nights of the year. In fact, we had never before worked a wedding on New Year’s because we like to dress up, go out and live it up like everyone else. But after meeting with Jessica and hearing her plans, we knew this wasn’t going to be a typical wedding. Jessica and Jake wanted to throw a big New Year’s Eve party at Dogpatch Studios, and get married in the middle of it as a surprise to their guests. Getting to photograph such a unique celebration, plus having the chance to work with Alison Events, made this a wedding we didn’t want to miss. And it didn’t hurt that they encouraged us to dress up and be part of the party.

We were grateful to have our good friend Dave Getzschman – who also happens to be one of our favorite photographers – shoot with us. The night was a blast – one of those weddings that feels more like fun than work.
