T &M • An Engagment By J.Guess

Sunday, August 29th, 2010

Every time I start to write an into to M & T engagement session I just keep giggling! I love to make my couples laugh, but I swear I don’t think I stopped laughing the whole time. It was just so much fun to hang out with them! We met up at 21c Museum Hotel. 21c is amazing, I love to walk around and look at all the exhibits. Currently the featured exhibit by Simen Johan. If you love/like taxidermy it is for you.  I will forever have memories of the “Yak”.

I am always in awe of talented people M painted this and one night when they were staying at 21c T walked in an saw this painting. I found it even more impressive that he painted this while she was in the house! She knew he was painting, so he had to paint a second piece to cover up the fact that he was up to something! This ranks pretty high on my romantic meter!

I call this thing the spaceship……

To the left in this picture is a deer/yak thing hanging on the wall. It was very odd, but has a special place in my heart now.

I love 21c’s penguins. I swear they are sooo awesome, believe it or not I had not gotten to play with one yet!

I love …love.

I love red too. Most of you know I have this serial obsession with red. If I wore heels, I would soooooooo have to steal her shoes!

A few weeks back T emailed me to ask if they could bring M’s 62 Impala….when I saw pictures I nearly had a heart attack. I LOVE OLD CARS! It was/is so beautiful! Remember my mention of my red love earlier….it was red and black!

Growing up we had a 57 Chevy Bel Air hardtop in the drive way, I will one day have a car similar to it!

Some times I am not perfect, but I chose to keep  this picture anyways, in the picture below,the side-view mirror is in focus and they are not, but I just love the feeling. It is a true visual of how they feel about each other.

I kept going back in forth with this being in Black/White or in Color…….I let Chico pick!(My Chihuahua, who happens to be sitting on my shoulder as  I write this….)

Bowling • A Creative Concept By Laura with Photography By J.Guess Photography

Monday, July 26th, 2010

I wish I could say that this was all my idea…it wasn’t Laura wanted to shoot at a Bowling alley in her Grandmom’s dresses. I loved it, we kinda did a retro/funky throwback. It was a blast! Brandy Doyle even went with us and touched everything up!

Ok. This may not be the most perfect shot ever….but I loved the bowling balls idea. It took a bit for us to get the balls to balance on the finger holes!

Before anyone ask….she was not on the lane, there was actually a walk way between the lanes, we used this to our benefit. Jessica was so wonderful to work with.

Yep I had to torture her a bit. She was up for being a pretzel!

Water • A Creative Concept By J.Guess Photography

Thursday, July 22nd, 2010

I am always thinking of wild and odd things to photograph. So yep, this is my twist on the “Water Concept”, it seems everyone is photographing something in the water this summer. But, who can say that they photographed in a muddy creek  that had risen almost two feet within the hour before the shoot. Lets not forget the mini logs floating by…..

Andrea Ahl did an amazing job with hair and makeup.

And as with many of my shoots, thanks to Sunny Acres Farm (My Second Home.) for letting me run amuck!

I would like to mention that I was also in the water with Jennifer….

Oh and in addition the the wonderful Jennifer Pohl, I had a lovely frog model, whom even looked at the camera!

Mister (Maybe Miss?) frog had to get his/her own picture too!

I actually can’t decide on favs…..Jennifer and Andrea just were rock stars!
