Posted at 00:00h Posted in Lifestyle Photography, Personal, Photography by Brea, Wedding Photography, Weddings 6 Comments

This is a super long blog post, and for that I apologize, but there's no way to cut this down and still do it justice. I've tried writing about the HoffShop a few times already and keep starting from scratch. Even weeks later, I'm still processing and don't feel like I'll do it justice, but I'm afraid the longer I wait, the harder it will be to capture just how life changing this experience was. Backstory A little less than two years...

This session is so incredibly special and I'm so excited to share it on the blog today! For Christmas last year I gifted my parents a photo session and we finally got around to making it happen! They're just a few months shy of their 30th anniversary, and as in love as ever. I am so lucky to have such a wonderful relationship with my parents. They are definitely more than just parents, they're my best friends too. They've also...

Another year of vacationing with the Shaw/Flanders Clan has passed and it was another great one! This year we had to leave a couple of days early so I made sure to truly enjoy vacation and left my camera in the room most of the time. We had a blast! There was jet-skiing, 3 beach days, a pool day, an airplane adventure, lots of donuts, and a hilarious toddler with an ever-growing vocabulary. Last year we called the year of the...

July 7, 2015 Italy – Days 5, 6 and 7 – Venice! (and Murano and Burano)

Thanks for following along on our Italy trip! Parts 1 (Rome) and 2 (Florence) recapped with the links here. Oh Venice. I wanted you to be my favorite. I still love you oh so much, but Florence was such a tough act to follow. As I mentioned in the last post about Florence, my travel experience tends to relate to my expectations. When we went to Hawaii I had incredibly high expectations, and thankfully Maui more than exceeded them. When I went...
