Hannah and Ryan are to this day two of my favorite people I have ever worked with. I admire them because they found the perfect way to balance tradition and whimsy for their Alice in Wonderland-themed temple wedding.
I got a lot of feedback from readers that Hannah and Ryan’s wedding taught them they they don’t [...]

1. Today I installed Roman bamboo shades in my new studio upstairs. They look SO cool and I’m so proud that I did it myself! I decided to move upstairs from the basement for a few reasons:

On New Year’s Eve we went to Goo, a dance party hosted by The Slowdown (where we got married in 2007).
