wedding wednesday: meet our photographer!

As I mentioned earlier, last weekend we had our engagement photo shoot! Our photographer is in Houston so we hung out with Derek’s family all weekend and had our shoot on Saturday. Let me just say that it was SUCH a blast! I don’t know if this is a common side effect, but Derek and I feel even closer than ever after 400 cuddles, and kisses, and giggles. I guess that makes perfect sense, now that I think about it. Can I just say that “modeling” its totally exhausting? We both woke up the next morning sore and aching. Maybe we should work out more..

Anyway, I felt that this would be the perfect time to introduce you to our wonderfully talented and totally hilarious photographer and newest blog sponsor!

Meet Lynsey..

You may recognize her from here.

See that shirt? That only means one thing. Lynsey is a fellow Red Raider! And I wouldn’t have it any other way. Lynsey and I met in college and we were also in the the same sorority. She’s an extremely talented photographer and graphic designer and owner of Lynsey Creative. She has a fresh and modern style which is why we love her so much! See for yourself..

Isn’t she awesome? I mean what can’t this girl do? You should totally check out her fab etsy shop, and follow her on facebook, twitter, and pinterest. Then you can be as obsessed as we are!

After seeing her skills behind a camera all afternoon Saturday, I know that we chose the perfect person to capture our big day. I can’t wait to see the rest of the images from our engagement sesh. And don’t worry, they’ll be up on the blog as soon as I can get my grubby paws on them.

**edit**
Lynsey has put some of her favorite shots from the day on her blog. Go check them out!! We are SO excited to see the rest :)

contemporary art with a southern accent

We’d like to introduce to you the newest sponsor of Your Modern Couple, contemporary artist Dolan Geiman. Dolan Geiman is a nationally recognized mixed media artist creating original paintings, collages, constructions, and limited-edition reproductions. Produced from salvaged wood, found objects, and other recycled materials, Geiman’s eco-friendly artwork emerges from a folk art tradition infused with a contemporary, urban style. See why we love him:

Isn’t he fantastic? We just love his use of bold colors and organic forms. His peices are nostalgic for us considering both of our fathers love automobiles, airplanes, cowboys, and trains, and both of our mothers love birds, flowers, nature, and even Crawfish!

Dolan Geiman really does have something for just about anyone. His artwork brings life and whimsy to any room, and his three-dimensional elements create a visual interest that keeps you wanting more.

We love his re-use of random found elements that others would usually consider trash. Paint sticks, reclaimed wood, and metal are some of his go-to pieces. As they say “One person’s trash is another person’s treasure”, and his work is a prime example of this.

Each item is truly a conversation piece. We love his collaging method that doesn’t look too busy or confusing, his work is flawless.

This has only been a glimpse into the portfolio of Dolan Geiman. He has countless pieces, and we have only scratched the surface. If you’d like to see more examples of his work, check out his website, “Like” him on Facebook, “follow” him on Twitter, and visit his blog to stay up to date with his work and where he’ll be traveling to next. So without further ado, welcome to your new home Dolan Geiman: our sidebar. We hope you enjoy your stay!
