Brandon + Ariel = {In Love!}

Sat, 27 Jun 2009 13:25:00 -0700

I shot Brandon and Ariel's wedding in April - it was my first wedding ever, and I was SO nervous! We were unable to take any couple's shots on the wedding day so I was determined to get them out somewhere to take some fun shots! :) We had a lot of fun, and I think the images turned out great! I wanted to shoot something romantic, colorful, and fun...with a "fairy tale" feel to them. Enjoy! And B+A...we love you! :) Click to view

This was such a fun maternity shoot for me to do... Such a gorgeous, fun family... So laid back. Claire LOVES photography, and already had all kinds of fun ideas when I got there (which made my job easy!). I truly enjoyed this shoot and am most definitely looking forward to welcoming Baby Matthew into the world next month!

Remembering my beautiful Mother-In-Law

Mon, 04 May 2009 23:08:00 -0700

"With every breath I will chase hope until it denies me" -Helen Marie Sattel

Tomorrow marks 2 years since my beautiful Mother-in-Law lost her battle to ALS (alsa.org). I just wanted to take a moment and remember her and everything I've learned and am thankful for because of her, even though I only knew her a short time.

I'm so thankful for the humor, heart, compassion, smiles, and pure joy she instilled in the lives of my husband, Chris, and my Sattel family. Every day there are moments that happen, and I think "Wow, thank you for that"...whether it be a prank my husband plays on me or simply the joy of giving to others or having spontaneous super-fun family days...it is all from her.

She was a fighter, a believer, a joker, a lover, kind-hearted, passionate...and she had great taste in music! :) She had such an infectious, gorgeous smile (as you can see in the photo), even in the midst of the trials and hardships ALS brought her.

Although we all miss her, and the pain of her loss stings - especially in the hearts of this new family I love so much - it's awesome to think of her in heaven, whole and healed, showing the angels a thing or two on how to truly enjoy life and laugh.

Helen, beautiful yellow rose, you are an inspiration to me and your memory will hold true in our hearts for always. I can't wait to get to know you better when I come to join you in heaven.

In memory of a beautiful woman, mother, wife, and mema.

Changes are coming...

I'm so excited to be changing Someday Photography to Brittany Michelle Photo. It's always fun to re-invent yourself, and I'm super stoked to see what my good friend Aimee comes up with for my new look!

She did all my Someday Photography stuff, and she's SO talented. Beyond that, she makes really fun stuff too! Check her out at eeludesign.com!

Until then, I'm slowly changing stuff over...including simplifying this blog. You'll notice it's not quite as pretty, and it doesn't have a sweet logo, but it will! Oh yes...it will!

So, I am WAY behind on my editing and most definitely behind on blogging! I still have so many photos to go through for Aaron's album shoot, but wanted to give you guys a little taste. So, here are some of my faves so far! Also, I am ALMOST done with Brandon & Ariel's awesome wedding...I'll be posting more of those this week - along with the radtastic photos that came out of the photo booth! ;) Enjoy!

Cuh-Razy Awesomeness!

Sun, 12 Apr 2009 08:26:00 -0700

This week is basically going to be an 11 on the Radness Scale. Why? Well, we are finally going on vacation!! :) SO, with this spare time and relaxation ensuing, I'll be able to do lots of fun photog stuff!

I'll be finishing up editing/posting more of Brandon and Ariel's wonderful wedding, so be excited for that! The photos are turning out really cool, and I'm excited by that. AND the Party Booth is turning out GREAT too, so be ready for a really cool treat on the blog with that.

I'll be on vacation in Denver, which is a beautiful and wonderful place for me to take some photos! I'm really excited... especially for Boulder...there's a TON of really great buildings and unique people. I'll be snapping away - so I'll post some photos as I go. :)

Finally, I'll be working on and finally doing a post on Aaron's Album Shoot. We went to a really rad location, shown to us by the fabulous Amelia & Justin Lyon. (See the below photos for a glimpse at our day...ignore my windblown mop I call hair!)

So, needless to say, this should be a cuh-razy awesome week of blog posts. :)

Until then, Happy Easter to all!!!!

Brandon + Ariel = Branriel WEDDING FUN!

Tue, 07 Apr 2009 22:46:00 -0700

Wow. I shot my first wedding! And how blessed am I to have this awesome couple as my first?! They are dear, dear friends and I was very honored to be asked to shoot their big day. Everything about this wedding was so unique. From the super cute bridesmaid's dresses, to Ariel's shoes (you'll have to see those in another blog post!), to the fact that there was zero to no stress during the day! Everyone was so laid back, ready to have fun, and super excited to see these two people - who by the way are SO perfect for each other - get hitched! My Photoshop crashed this week, so the photos are taking a little longer than I thought, but I just wanted to drop in some of the ones I've been able to work on so far....there are many, many more to come - including my first Wedding Party Booth - so I'll probably do a couple of more blog posts later on...I am, after all, stoked about this wedding! But for now, here are some peeks. Enjoy! To view the photos, just click away! :) Congrats Branriel - I love you guys! Hope your honeymoon is everything you dreamed!!! And I'm looking forward to our Post-Honeymoon Couple's Sesh!
