The ladies at Give My Regards To plan some hot shizz, if you’ll pardon the expression.  Amy is being honored with some fancy award next week and she needed headshots (like you do).  She brought her crew down to the studio so everybody could play. Check out how they got their fox on.

I first met Matt when we were in 7th grade playing baseball and his dad and my dad were the coaches (I think).  The part I remember best is going to his house for team events because they had a soda fountain.  And now he’s marrying Beth who I’m convinced is a J. Crew model [...]

I just found out about the band Beach House* and I’m in love with their sound.  I think you will be, too.  I’ve added my favorite tune Lover of Mine to the sound bar at the bottom of your screen.  Enjoy! Edited to Add: The band is called Beach House, the album is called Teen [...]

Presenting Jill + Brent, whose day was full of sunshine and a gorgeous breeze. Three special ingredients for these delicious photos: 1. A pair of vintage tennis racquets (old timey spelling!) I found at the Salvation Army that we used for portraits at the Calhoun Beach Club. 2. The amazing blue ceiling drapings at the [...]

Jill and Brent were married today (evidence below).  They’re probably still dancing.  We’re going home now to rest our old lady hips. Love and Sunshine Kisses, Matt + Kess

I’m all about screens.  I love when everything on my desktop has a place and can be easily referenced so much so that sometimes I just sit and stare.  I thought today since we don’t have any shoots until Jill + Brent’s fabulous wedding this Saturday I’d post a screenshot of the desktop that I [...]

Leonel and JuanJose are our monk friends from Guatemala (they’re the first two handsomes pictured below).  They’re preparing for their solemn vows (where they commit to the Order of St. Benedict Forever and Ever Amen) so we’re raising money to get them here for a visit in June so that they will be able to [...]

As Kess has already indicated, I have an ongoing obsession with vinyl records. When I found out about the Warner Brothers Records vinyl store, Because Sound Matters, I was unable to control myself. Thus the pictures below. Please, if someday you call the studio and we don’t answer, send help; we may be buried under [...]

Que buen día hacia ayer en Minneapolis!  Así que tuve que recorrerme por la ciudad con Sammy, Cristina, y su hija Tanya para hacer unos retratos de su familia.  Yo conocí a Tanya porque coordina el club social del edificio donde tenemos el estudio y a mi me gusta mucho todo lo que es ‘social’.  [...]
