Yeah, you know the whole idea stresses you out. So here’s a good little book about doing things your way. It’s a handy planner and resource guide that will keep you on track with tabbed chapters and pockets for stuffing brochures and clippings. I used it, and it was a real gem. There’s also lots of tips that you wouldn’t even think about until it’s too late. Carolyn and Stephanie have additional titles as well…

Life is a Series of Surprises…

We never really intended to be wedding photographers, we just kinda fell into it.

My husband and I were married in 2002, in a historic movie Theater in St. Charles, Illinois. While in the process of planning our wedding, so many people were estatic hearing about our wedding ideas… that a couple brides to be, eagerly asked us to document their wedding. At the time, I was a freelance photographer for several local newspapers, along with working at a local photography studio. Michael was working for a design firm as an art director. At the time Boojazz was a website featuring our photography, artwork and Michael’s design, with no real direction other than , “Hey! Look at us! Here we are!”

We photographed a handful of weddings that year. The couples were very happy with their photographs and we realized that we were really good at it. With a little more training and experience… the following year we doubled our bookings. In 2004, we were working at Boojazz fulltime. We never had to advertise, word of mouth spread fast and that year we again doubled the business and booked over twenty weddings.

We set ourselves out to be the opposite of many photography studios, the cynical ones looking for a crazy big paycheck with no personal service. In Chicago we made a great name for ourselves, and we’re excited about the possibilities here in Seattle.
