Anchorage, Alaska Wedding Photographer {The Protzman-Murphy Wedding}

I have known Ashlee for a long time... we used to work together way back in the day, so I was very excited when she asked me to capture one of the most important days of her life! To say she was the coolest bride is an understatement, the exact type of bride that I love to capture-fun easy going and down for anything! There were so many people around her loving her, supporting her and making her feel like the most beautiful bride in the world, which I how it should be.

Congrats Ashley and Shane! 

Getting ready for the big day!

It's hard to tell, but it was raining hard before this shoot. Luckily, this family was adventurous and literally right after we decided to tough out the weather and go for it, the rain stopped and the sun came out. It was the most beautiful night, no wind, no rain, gorgeous light and a lovely family!

I have been photographing the Davis Family for around 6 years now I think? It's been crazy to see these kids grow up right before my eyes, and I've absolutely loved being able to capture them all these years! This year they added a new addition to the family-their beloved little pug Pup! I have pugs as well, so I was cracking up at him the entire shoot...they are hilarious little dogs. We were lucky enough to have a break in the rainy weather at the Eagle River Nature Center and got some gorgeous views of the mountains!

I have been photographing this family for a few years now and I absolutely love watching these kids grow up, they are all as sweet as they look!

I feel so lucky to have a job where I get to capture the love and connections between such amazing families!

I have had a lot of people ask me where I got these square prints from on my wall, so I decided to blog about them!

I literally have about a zillion images on my computer of my kids and was getting sick of them just taking up hard drive space. I love seeing my family in print on my wall, but know how expensive that can get-and then when you throw in frames, canvases, albums, etc...it only adds to the expense. 

I don't always want to frame every image I take, and was trying to think of a unique and cost effective way of displaying them. After doing a lot of research, I came across Artifact Uprising and their awesome square prints that I absolutely love AND they start at $14 for 25 prints, what is better than that?! They come in different sizes, are thick and have a matte finish-which look really good as a stand alone print. I prefer matte over glossy anyways, it just has more of a finished, refined look than glossy does in my opinion. 

Here is one way to display the square prints, but there are a bunch of other ways you can display them as well. I always love turning to Pinterest for inspiration- type in 'display square prints' and bam! there you go! Inspiration for days! 

I hope this helps in giving you ideas on how to get those images off of your computer and onto your walls in a fun and fresh way!

The people in your life who want you in theirs; the ones who accept you for who you are, love you no matter what and would do anything to see you smile"

My April video was to document a day in the life of and I chose to document a lazy Sunday at the our household! I know I will appreciate these days when it was just the four of us in a a couple months when baby boy arrives, but it'll be so much fun to see how the dynamic changes as well!!!
