Hi everyone! Happy Friday! We hope you all had a great week and are looking forward to a fun and relaxing weekend. Today we want to bring you up to speed with what’s happening over here at Birds of a Feather Photography, and give you a heads up at what’s to come. And because no post is complete without some photos, we’ll include some random behind the scenes shots for fun 😉
This week we made HUGE progress in the new studio/office. Six buckets of paint went up, new ceiling tiles were installed, carpets were cleaned, and the town came in to do their inspections. Everything is moving right along! It’s looking like we might actually start using this place sooner than we thought! The next things to be done include assembling furniture, getting our business sign added to the marquee out front, ordering large prints for the walls, and decorating (decorating is the fun part). Once all of those things are finished, and we feel the place is ready to share with the world, we’ll announce when our Open House day will be. So stay with us, and be on the lookout for that announcement!
(Here’s a shot of Betty rocking the no shoes look while she multitasks. Her mission included getting the right shot and keeping the aisle runner from blowing in the wind.)
In other news we were featured again this week on the ever fabulous United With Love! Check out their first post as well as their second post featuring Ashley and Eric’s wedding from earlier this summer.
Right now we are prepping for tomorrow’s wedding by the water at Weatherly Farm. We’re so excited to shoot at this location and work with the amazing team of TreBella Events. Such a treat to work with your friends! It’s going to be another great wedding!
We are also packing and gearing up for our official vacation. What? A vacation?! Yes, we’re actually taking a vacation. It’s the first one we’ve taken as a family in almost 10 years. It was time! After tomorrow’s wedding we’re hitting the road and making our way to join the rest of the family at the beach. While we’re there, we WILL be answering emails. Every morning we will check and respond to emails that come in, so we won’t be out of touch. However, because we are going to try to limit ourselves to just the morning for “work” our response time won’t be as quick as it is usually. If you happen to send us an email at 12pm, it will be the next morning before we can get to it. Thank you for understanding and giving us a little extra time to respond while we’re spending time with our family. We’ll only be gone a week and we’ll be back at it as soon as we return home with LOTS of photos to share with you! The blog will not be silent while we’re away either, we have a series of “Favorite Photos” lined up to share with you all next week. So come back and check ’em out!
(Here’s a shot Betty took to “test the light” before the Bride and Groom made their entrance. Maggie thought it would be a good idea to act out their entrance… it wasn’t.)
Have a wonderful weekend, come back to the blog all next week, and stay in touch if you need us. We won’t be too far away from our phones 😉
(And here’s our current favorite photo of the two of us with Sweet Cheeks. Big props to Maggie’s hubby for getting this one.)
