Evantide Photography

Over the last couple of months many of you have purchased your first digital SLR, lenses and for some of you – even an external flash.  I have had a lot of requests for help in learning how to utilize your new cameras.  It’s time to stop only shooting in auto and really utilize these great cameras.  I’ve secured an amazing spot for a fantastic workshop.  This is coming up quick and there are a limited number of spots so be sure to sign up soon.  You asked for it and here it is!

The goal for these and other images we captured for Elaina were to give a timeless feel… Well, also a Valentines Day gift to her hubby:).  The hard work Elaina and the ladies at Tart Beauty put into her look really left it up to us to isolate Elaina in a way that didn’t get in the way of that vintage feel.  We don’t really focus on our boudoir, pinup and themed photo-shoots in our portfolio but if you ever have a shoot like this in mind you can definitely contact us and we can show you some of our work.  Enjoy the preview Elaina!

Big thanks to Rocket Donuts in downtown for letting us utilize their space and theme!

I don’t know of anyone who would read this post that would approve of this next image.  But, hey…  It’s what I’m willing to do for my clients.

Go Mariners:-).

Once again, just a dude trying to show you ladies how it’s done:-).  Wow, this is embarassing!

We love hearing from you and whatcha think.

I’ve been editing this shoot this evening and really wanted to post something but I’m not ready to blog about the whole shoot so here’s one:-).

PS How about a shout out to the ladies at ‘Tart Beauty’ for the amazing work they did on Elaina’s make up and hair.  Elaina, you looked amazing!

If you have had a chance to visit our website recently, you have heard Dana Little and Tara Ward’s beautiful music!  I recently did some work with both of these great ladies and they are allowing me the privilege of utilizing their music on my site (Thank you both so much for that!).  This last weekend, I was able to head down to Wood’s Coffee at Boulevard Park and enjoy Dana in concert.  It was quite the treat.  She asked if I would bring along my camera and I happily obliged.  Thanks Dana for sharing your music with us and we all look forward to buying your album when you release it:-).  Here are some images from the show.

Woods at Boulevard was such a great venue for this show.  It had an intimate feel and was definitely at capacity (Dana did a second short set for those that weren’t able to come in:).

Taylor Rowland opened for Dana and did a great job!  If someone has info about him you can leave it in the comment section.

We love reading your comments:-)!

Oh my goodness, it has been soooo nice out lately!!  Grant and I went on a walk today and had a ton of fun exploring and playing on Taylor Dock.

We love this kid!

Meg and I had so much fun with the Hillmans, doing a few studio and outdoor sets.  Little Ezra and Finley are so stinking cute.  One of the things I love about childrens photography is capturing their eyes.  As you can see from this post and Danielle in the post below:-).  Enjoy.

Meg and I met up with Krissy and fam last month for some outdoor photos and it ended up being ‘Great White North’ frigid.  So we ended up cutting the shoot a bit short and decided to meet up again when it was a little warmer.  And warmer it was:-).  We had a great time at the park and I captured some more great images to boot.  Enjoy.

Danielle, representing the family business well!

It’s fun to meet little munchkins when then are really young, Carter is three weeks old and the cutest dude.  Looking at the photos I selected, I realize he looks older because he’s kind of sitting up in a couple of them.  Any of you that know us or our kiddo know how impressed we are with his neck and head control skills!  It was cool to do maternity and baby photos within about a month of each other for this Fam.  Congratulations to Julie & Matt and welcome Carter.  Enjoy!

He seems deep in thought, I’m sure he’s contemplating how he might single handedly save the world.

‘I’ve got it!’

We loved his robot themed room.  One of my favorites!

I love the reality of it all, in this shot:-).

Welcoming Carter into the world one comment at a time!

Okay these next few blog posts are a reflection on the last year.  As far as weddings are concerned, it was an amazing ‘09.  We started the wedding season in Maui while Meg was still pregnant and ended it in Phoenix with an 8 month old.  How fun is that.  Oh and we shot so many amazing weddings in between in the amazingly beautiful Pacific Northwest!  I have to be honest, that keeping this blog post at less than 200 photos was hard but to keep it to under 25 was a rough task.  I am unbelievably excited about this coming year and all the amazing clients but this one’s for all of you from this last year.  Thanks to everyone who made 2009 spectactular for us!  Enjoy.
