eileen and i are excited to announce our latest international awards, wedding-day portraits entitled “of earth and honey” and “awaiting the daydream.” you can read more about PPA — photography’s largest international non-profit association with a history as long as photography itself — in the press release below. first, though, congratulations to our beautiful models: in this case, mallory and eddie armstrong, and caitlyn o’connor (just moments before becoming caitlyn bernau). 😉

suffice it to say, we’re humbled by this prestigious honor and by the privilege of having our work on exhibition around the country and around the world. we can’t wait to get a first-hand look at it when we attend Imaging USA in Phoenix next year! if any of you is going, drop us a tweet. we love to meet up with fellow photographers on the road. see you then!
