    I was beyond excited when a past boudoir client emailed to tell us that her fiance (now husband) wanted to use one of her photos as inspiration for a new tattoo. I nearly fell out of my chair when she emailed us to share the finished work, artfully crafted by the uber talented Matthew J. Hockaday at Avatar Studios in Clarkston, MI. Now THIS is hot! Thank you so much for sharing, Sharon. This is so far beyond cool and I could not wait to share it with the world!!

    I am incredibly honored to have been nominated once again for the Channel 4 Vote 4 The Best Guide! Click HERE to cast your vote and feel free to leave a little love in the comments box. We finished in the top 5 for both 2007 and 2008 and I would be ecstatic if we could make it a three-peat. :)

    A sincere, heartfelt thanks to all of my past and current clients for taking the time to vote and spread the word. You are my inspiration and the reason I continue to chase my dreams.

    Are you the kind of couple that dares to be different? Do your visions and plans for your wedding truly embrace your individuality and stray from the norm? If so, read on...

    We are offering our services FREE of charge to the couple that refuses to settle on “status quo” for their big day! Email us at dhaglundtsg@gmail.com and tell us all about your unique arrangements for your big day and if your wedding stands above the rest, we'll be in touch.

    Entries are due by June 30, 2009 and the winner will be announced July 6, 2009.

    The Nitty Gritty:

    - Wedding date must be in the month of Dec 2009 or any month in 2010; eligibility is based on our availability.

    - Wedding location DOES NOT need to be in Michigan. Hey, we're always looking for an excuse to pack our bags so if you're having a destination wedding in our outside of the U.S. we're more than ready. Our services remain free of charge though all hotel and travel expenses must be covered by the bride and groom. A pretty good bargain any way you slice it! ; )

    - For MI based weddings we will provide the couple with up to 10 hours of continuous wedding day coverage with two photographers (myself and a trained associate), an online gallery of your images for 120 days, and your complete collection in 4x6 professional print. You are welcome to purchase additional prints, albums, edited digital files, and other product as you wish.

    - Destination weddings come with even more perks which will depend on when we arrive and depart from your location. Just let us know your plans and we'll fill you in on all of the extra cool stuff (and it really is cool).

    We look forward to hearing from you!

    Katherine and her parents, Kim and Chris (really cool people). I photographed their wedding in 2007 and during the process we became good friends. BONUS: Chris, a lover of photography, is now one of my associate photographers. I really do meet the most awesome people. :)

    I LOVE BABIES!! : )


    The holidays are over and the new year is underway. 2008 was an exciting ride both professionally and personally and I cannot wait to see what 2009 has in store. To all of my past, present and future clients, I thank you for honoring me with the distinct pleasure of being part of your lives and your spectacular memories. I look forward to working with each and every one of you, to making new friends, and to creating some amazing images in what I hope will be our very best year yet!

    Now, down to business. :) The following weddings are on the roster and we're working to get each client their image collection as quickly as possible along with working on album design which ramped up around the holidays when we received an influx of orders. Rest assured; we're on it and we will contact you once the editing and design process has been completed.

    WHAT'S COOKING:

    12.3.08 - Rama
    12.6.08 - Northup
    12.21.08 - Mace
    12.27.08 - Haag
    1.2.09 - Simoni
    1.3.09 - Hartsig


    Happy New Year!!!!!

    Anne posted the following in the Weddingbee Pro Blog earlier this week, which explains in great detail what we photographers face in our post production and the timelines we honestly and sincerely attempt to hold ourselves to during this creative process.

    Thank you, Ann, for taking the time to explain both the views of the client and of the photographer in a way that helps each gain a better understanding.

    How Long Does it Take?
