Jessica Johnston Photography

June 8, 2009 // engagement / news

Received a lovely e-mail from Sarah (see post one below!) a few days ago with a photo attachment from her iPhone to show off the placement of the canvas they purchased from their e-session. I just wanted to post this to say that you really can live with photos of yourselves in your own home! Many times clients are a bit hesitant b/c they don't want large images of themselves up-but we always try to shoot for some images that would work well large as more of an art piece.

Here is the photo Sarah sent of Rupert modeling the art for us:

Rupert + Sarah Engaged

May 29, 2009 // engagement

A few weeks ago we photographed Sarah + Rupert's e-session in Ann Arbor-they had to take the red eye from L.A. to come all the way to MI to do wedding planning for their upcoming wedding on Mackinac Island (cannot wait!!) this August-and stopped over with us for a few hours to do their session and order their images. Working on about 4 hours of sleep they still look like they model for a living! We even got up at 5 a.m. to take advantage of the pretty morning light-something we rarely do since we typically are up around 8 a.m. and work till 9 p.m. every day in the summer! Sometimes being the early bird pays off. :)

Today we had the total pleasure of photographing rupert + sarah's e-session. Towards the end of the session sarah said "wouldn't it be awesome if we could get some balloons and take some photos with them?" and we said "YES!!" so we did. More to come soon!
