Welcome to our new blog!
So here we all are. Thank you for coming! You’ve found your way to our brand new hybrid blog. We call it a hybrid blog because this is not just going to remain as our photography blog. This is also going to be our fun blog and our life blog. I (Becka) had been starting to miss my personal blogging and writing so we decided that we were going to do something a bit different than what you’ve seen before and create this new blog that merges three areas of our life into one, awesome-packed blog experience for you. (Yes, I just said that.) You’ll see along the top, in the rotating banner, and in the sidebar to the right, that there are three main categories for this blog: Work, Life, and Fun. On this main page you will be able to see everything posted into each of these three categories. But if you’d prefer to only read about our photography related posts, you can do that by clicking on the “work” link. If you would rather just keep up with us on a more personal level, then you can click on the “life” link. And for everything in between that strikes our fancy, you can click on the “fun” link. You can also subscribe to the entire blog, or just to the section that you would like to read via the links at the bottom of the right sidebar. Easy right?
To celebrate this three in one blog we have decided to do a little giveaway of three of our favorite things. One representing work, one representing life, and one representing fun. And these three prizes are going to go to three of you! It’s so easy. All you have to do is leave us a comment saying hello (and if you want to go ahead and subscribe we wouldn’t mind that either) on any of the new posts including the engagement session below and anything else posted through the end of this week. We’ve got so much good stuff that we’ve been storing up so check back in daily to see what’s new. We will randomly select three commenters from all the new comments on Sunday and announce the winner in Sunday’s post.

The goods:
WORK: 1 Kata Neck Strap (our all time favorite camera strap!)
LIFE: 1 Anthropologie Baltic Amber Candle (our favorite scent!)
FUN: 1 Jim Gaffigan “King Baby” DVD (one of our all time favorite stand up comedians!)
*camera and memory cards not included in giveaway
So, take a look around, add this new blog to your reader, bookmark it, and if you’ve linked to us anywhere, please update the link. We can’t wait to meet all of you and show you what we’ve been holding captive for the last few weeks!
Love and changes,
Becka & Nate









Your stuff is amazing. I cannot believe how quickly you guys grew!! I would love to attend to your workshop when and if you offer one! God Bless!
Hey becka and nate. I follow you for quite some time now and love your work. And when I received the Professional Photographer magazine yesterday in the mail (I life in Germany and actually only have the digital subscribtion) I was really really happy for you to have the front page and a whole huge article in it. I can’t wait to read it and to follow you on your new blog. Your pictures are really amazing.
