Picture Perfect

Has the last month flown by or what?! I (Lucy), had such a wonderful, busy and exciting October. I got to travel to both Ely, MN and Toronto for a couple of different clients (and I *adore* traveling for work!), I shot my last wedding of the season, took a lovely vacation to the North Shore, and had a bunch of wonderful family and portrait sessions! I wanted to share a few shots from a particularly great one.Mandi was a model at a shoot that Leslie and I did for Juut Salon a few months ago, and I was thrilled when she reached out to schedule a portrait session. She also picked a wonderful location in St. Paul that had such great backdrops, the evening light was absolutely perfect, and she is just such a natural in front of the camera! So, without further ado:

the amazing arcade fire

Way back on Sunday, I got to photograph the Arcade Fire concert in town.This was the fifth time (that I can recall) seeing them, and as always their show was phenomenal. But this was the first time that I was allowed to photograph the band, and man was I excited!That said, their entire show is so visually stunning that capturing the first three songs from way back at the soundboard doesn't really do them justice. But here are a few of my favorite shots regardless. And here is my favorite album of theirs in case you need a soundtrack for your day. For your internet shares today:+ Amazing Halloween photos -- the garage door one stopped me in my tracks!+ If I find fifty bucks on the ground, I'll buy Ezra this amazing toy for Christmas.+ I was super excited to see Suburbicon, but the reviews have been dreadful. This poster, however? A+.
