Weddings – Page 35 – Otis & James Photography

Erick & Amy (The Conclusionl…For Now!)

I guess that the real conclusion will be on their wedding day, but yesterday marked the conclusion of their engagement photographs! You can find their original session here, and like that time we again had a great time as we were joined by this happy couple and the always lovely Hope!

We had a great time with the shoot, and when I say we I mean everyone that was involved with the shoot, as today the talented Ali was playing the part of Otis (while the real Otis sat back in the office and smoked cigars that had been lit with $100 bills.) We can’t wait for the big day, and would now like to offer up some of the goods from yesterday – Enjoy!

Amos & Carly (TNSP v.4)

This afternoon (actually yesterday afternoon, but we haven’t gone home yet, so it’s still this to me) we were visited by our new friends, Amos & Carly! They made the trip to the great city of Minot from our capitol city (is that with an o or an a…anybody?) Bismarck (for those of you that were wondering what the capitol of North Dakota is)!

The reason, engagement photographs. The outcome, totally sweet – engagement photographs with a little flava (again, I’m trying to keep it hip by injecting some slang into the post – does it work…anybody?). As you can tell, this awesome couple came here ready to rock, and rock they did.

We thank them for making the trip up, and look forward to their wedding! Enough of this typing and stuff, let’s move on to the photographs – Enjoy!

Milt & Tara!

On this past Monday, Otis & James HQ was made brighter by the addition of Milt, Tara (and a special guest star), the occasion being engagement photographs (and maybe a couple of the special guest star as well!)

Fun was had by all, as we tried to make our photographic time together as painless as possible.Â No word yet on whether or not this was achieved, but somebody (that’s you, special guest star), in my opinion, had some good fun!

We thank this happy group for taking the time to come and visit us, and can hardly wait until the wedding!

Erick & Amy!

This past Saturday we got off to a great start, and it was made possible by the addition of our friends Erick & Amy stopping by the studio (with help from Otis & James regular Hope) for a special early morning (10:00 AM is still considered to be early morning, isn’t it?) edition of engagement portraits!

We are going to be working with this dynamic duo in just a few quick months, and judging by their work today it is going to be a blast (if we can control Hope, that is…) 🙂

This wonder-liscous couple set their amps to eleven, and commenced full on rocking. In fact, I’m just going to stop all of my crazy talk and just move on to the snaps from the day – Enjoy!

Gabe & Nina!

This past Wednesday morning (I know…it’s been a few days since we’ve last conversed) we had the great pleasure of meeting up with old friends of Otis & James, none other than Gabe & Nina! Their caravan of good times was rolling through the minot area, and we were lucky enough to be one of the stops they chose to make!

They jumped off the caravan (the metaphorical caravan, I really don’t think they were driving a Dodge Caravan, but I guess that I really don’t know, but they don’t seem like a couple that is at the minivan stage of their relationship – come to think of it, is anybody ever really ready for the minivan stage of a relationship?) and jumped right into the studio, a rip-roarin’ and a ready to go!

They were awesome – totally and completely comfortable in front of the camera (me thinks that Gabe might have had a certain Miss Kitty from Moorhead to thank for that), and it showed in their shots. You know, I’m just going to stop talking about these shots and move on to the goods – Enjoy!

Nate & Tara

This past Saturday, New Years Eve, we Otis & James had the great honor of being the wedding photographers for our good friends, Nate & Tara! We have been looking forward to this day for a long time, and could hardly wait for the big day.

We started off the festivities in our studio, where we were joined by a multitude of people – the studio was where it was going on. It was the hottest ticket in town, and this group of people that we worked with were ready to rock, and rock they did!

We had a great time, from the studio to the church, the party bus to the reception, it was an absolutely beautiful day – and of course it would be, because of this beautiful couple!

We want to thank Nate & Tara, and their families for being so great to work with, and we wish this couple a heartfelt congratulations – Enjoy!

Kelly & Nikki!

Today we had the good fortune of meeting some new Otis & James friends, Kelly & Nikki! They came from a place far away to be with us (I speak as if we live in a time in which travel across a state is a far fetched idea). This super-rockin’ duo was a blast to work with, and we look forward to their wedding day!

For now, we will have to tide ourselves over with some of their fantastic engagement photographs – Enjoy!

Roxy-Mama & Bid Daddy Jeremy!

Our day came to a thrilling conclusion with a visit from our super-duper-old-musical-brassy-friends Jeremy & Roxy (you can call her…Roxanimal.) We can harldly wait until their wedding this coming summer, and we are glad to say that not only will we be working the event (which sounds kind of creepy), but our very own James will be in the event (which sounds even creepier)!!

Ohhh…thank you to the lovely two for playing in the cold with us, and then for warming up with us (very creepy sounding) in the studio. Well, let’s stop all of this creepitude and move on to the snaps – Enjoy!

Dan & Joy!

We have a friend in the Land of Otis & James that has helped us keep our clients’ thirst needs under control via the installation of the super-cool beverage machine in our dressing room – and this man’s name is Dan! Well…our friend inquired one day if we have ever been in the business of taking engagement photographs, and lo and behold we do!

It was a perfect match. So, Dan brought his lovely bride to be Joy down to Happy Land (yet another name I’m trying out for the studio) Thursday evening, and the results were fantastic! We thank this fantastic duo for taking time out for us, and wish them all the best in their new lives together – Enjoy!

MM . The Kile & Richelle Edition

This past Friday morning we had the great pleasure of meeting a future O&J B&G (for those of you not in the know, that’s Otis & James Bride & Groom – you gotta keep you brain a runnin’ if you want to keep up) Kile & Richelle!! The braved the cold of the outside, and then warmed up the studio with their total and complete (and I’m going to make up a word here) awesomedness (no relation to Loch Ness).

We had a great time together, and are totally looking forward to the big day next summer! So for now, pull up a chair and warm yourselves by the glow of their photographs – Enjoy!
