several months ago, mark hired a dude named richard to help him redesign the malibu chamber of commerce website. as they chatted and got to know one another, mark mentioned that i have a blog and then richard mentioned that his wife has a blog and then we checked out each other’s blogs and a connection was made. i love how that happens.
shortly after we met {online}, stacey contacted me and explained that she and her friend laurie were going into business together – photography business. they needed subjects for their portfolio/website…would zoey and i be interested in doing a photo shoot? um…hell yeah! the decision was a no-brainer. leading up to the shoot, we communicated back and forth about the deets – a bit boho, with a vintage-y feel, creamy colors and flower crowns. sold.
and although it was a dreary, rainy november day in southern california - the santa monica mountains and fall foliage lent us the perfect backdrop for a mother/daughter photo shoot and a few wedding related shots, as well {not shown.} i absolutely love how the photos turned out.
laurie and stacey are an awesome team. both professional, but relaxed and easy to work with. if you’re looking to hire photographers {or know someone who is} for your next event – from weddings to pregnancy shoots to photos of your children – please check out gather west photography. click on the FAQ link for more information – they’re willing to travel! not only that, but stacey and laurie offer custom photo booths and invitations!
