Josalyn

If you go back a couple of days, back to the post on Friday, I made mention to the fact that Friday weddings really throw my internal clock off. To illustrate this fact, if you refer back to the post from yesterday (Sunday), you will see that I refered to our client by the wrong name. Well, the name that I used was Josalyn, because I thought that if it was Monday, it must be Josalyn. But it was Sunday, and it wasn’t. But then today was Monday, and it was, and we were glad, and we all lived happily ever after.

The End.

Uhhhhhh…..I’m not too sure what that was all about, but what I do know is that today we spent our evening with the Joyful Josalyn (remember, I strive to alliterate no matter how bad it is!) We had a great evening, and got some really wonderful photographs – all made possible by…Josalyn! Enough with all of this randam jabering, on to the photographs – Enjoy!

Sundays with Racia – Pt. I

It is just a given now that if we have an appointment on Sunday, the post title will start off ‘Sundays with…’ Sure, some may say that it is taking the easy way out, that it’s not creative; etc. To them I say, you are indeed correct – but that does not mean that I will change my ways. I guess that this discussion could probably be saved for another time, as this post is about the great time we had working with Racia this evening.

I, Otis, got off to a great start by bursting into the studio during makeup and addressing Racia by another name. You know, this is not the best way to start off a session. I apologized, she was gracious enough to accept the apology, and we took some great pics. We will be adding some more later (hence the Pt. I), so keep peeling your eyes (very painful) for more images at a later time. So, I think that’s it – Enjoy!

Shaun & Meg

Otis & James had the pleasure of to company of Shaun & Meg, et. al. today. It was a Friday wedding. Friday weddings always wreak havoc on my internal clock, as I am so programmed into thinking that if there is a wedding, it must be Saturday. Then I will go on thinking that Saturday is Sunday, and on Sundy wonder why nobody is at work – where have all the people gone? – that kind of stuff.

Friday weddings are great, though, because you are not compteting with everybody else that is getting married. Shaun & Meg were the main event, and that was it. Well, enough of this digression, and let me tell you that we had a wonderful time working with the couple and their family over the last few months (a big shout-out to our friend Penny – aka the ‘Dancing Machine’), and we thank them for making the day so enjoyable. Alright, alright, enough blabbing and on with the pics – Enjoy!

Tiffany

There’s no need for alliteration on this post title, but if there was it could have been ‘Totally Tiffany’, or…well…I really can’t think of anything else; but I digress.

We were here today to photograph the enchanting Tiffany, and were joined by some special guests (Mom & Sis.) We all had a great time (well, I know I had a great time, and I’m really hoping that everyone else did too.)

Tiffany was a real treat to work with. She was the tops, the bananas, the cat’s pajamas. She rocked, plain and simple. Enough of this crazy-talk, and let’s look at the proof – Enjoy!

Lovely Lise

Ahh yes, my old friend alliteration. You never cease to amaze me with your abilities. Truly, though, we worked today with the amazingly lovely Lise (pronounced like Lisa, but I’m sure our devoted crowd of good Scandinavians already knew this.) She was a true joy to work with, and with us created some absolutely beautiful photographs. Let’s stop talking about it, and let us instead look at the goods – Enjoy!

Paul & Paige

We spent the day today in good company. We spent it with friends old and new. We spent the day at the wedding of Paul & Paige. We had a wonderful time. We were treated exceptionally well. We thank the new couple, and their families for making this day (and night) such an awesome time for everyone involved! We are now going to put photographs on our site for you to see. We hope you like them – Enjoy!

The Soulful Swingin’ Sounds of Matt Bieri; Renegade son of Bud Bieri

I am ready at a moments notice to sing at any wedding.
I have prepared a repetoire of hits, such as “I Will Always Love You” as well as any number of songs by Journey.

Kayla!

This evening we worked with an old friend, and one of the original Otis & James customers, Kayla! We thank her for coming back to Otis & James land. She came with a boatload (if that is a word) of great ideas and outfits. We had a ton of fun, and now would like to show you some of what went down – Enjoy!

Shana . v.1

Today was kind of bleak on the weather front. Overcast and what not. You see, we were supposed to work with the incredibly friendly Shana tonight, but becasue of the relatively bleak conditions were only able to work in the studio. We really made the most of it, and had a great time working with Shana & her assistant (mom.) We look forward to completing her session, so for now we leave you with just a few from the studio. Stay tuned for more – Enjoy!

Rob & the Mid 90’s Honda

Rob gets a gold star from Otis & James for braving the ride in the car with us today. He had no fear, as we motored about in search of the answer to life. We didn’t find it, but since we had our camera, we took some Senior Portraits. Had a good time, and got some good time photo-graphs. Thanks Rob – Enjoy!
