Shootout 2009 {around the office}

December 30th, 2009
Filed under: Around the Office, Weddings


It’s that time of year again… that time when I go through the files I’ve collected over the year in a folder called “Sarah and Dustin Shooting” and see all the silly pictures we’ve taken of each other as we shoot. It’s pretty rare to not take at least an image or two of the person (or persons) you’re shooting with during the course of an event. Often we make it into a game, even more often Dustin gets irrated by my taking pictures of him. But no matter who I’m shooting with I always end up with a picture or two.

2009 was another great year for having great photographers come hang out with us! We have LOVED our dear friends who have been so much fun to shoot with. Many huge thanks to Marina Miller of Red Heart Photo, Gwyneth Colleen of Gwyneth Colleen, Andrea Price of Andrea’s Images, Rachelle Stogner of Rachelle Photography, my dear intern Windy Dougal and of course my studio mate and soul mate Beth Baugher of True Love Photo for shooting with me, and for being such wonderful friends! I adore you all! (And Beth, I’m building my life around this next picture of you. :) )


This is Dustin’s new favorite picture that I have ever snapped of him. While this 400mm was a rental, Dustin is CONVINCED that now he needs one… me… not so much on the convinced part.

Once again, THANK YOU THANK YOU to my wonderful husband Dustin for being my support, my bestie, and the coolest weirdo I know. Thank you also to our delightful clients who have made 2009 such a joy! We have loved working with you all! Thank you for inviting us into your lives, and for making our job SOOOOO much fun. We can’t WAIT for 2010! Check out the SLIDESHOW HERE of our crazy year shooting each other.
