Nadya and Neil’s wedding :: Things you might not know about Mark.

Because of our work flow, and the schedule of our days, I (candice) have become the person who writes about each of our awesome “Mark Brooke” clients. Because of this, Mark has made comments that the blog is turning into the “candice show”… which to be honest, I agree. Not that it’s a bad thing, since I find myself interesting, but I thought today the first part of this post could be all about Mark. There are many things about Mark that people may  not know or might find shocking. So here are just a few. 

1. For Marks 21st Birthday I bought him his first Tattoo.  In the future (meaning this year) he wants to expand that tattoo into a shoulder piece. Its going to be RAD!

2. Mark is a night owl, loves sushi, and is a trouble maker.

3. He would rather have a guitar in his hand then a dessert (such a weird concept to grasp:). 

4. Right now he sitting at his desk and has a lighter in his hand and is burning a piece of paper “cause he is bored (random). 

5. Very few people have met mark and not fallen in love with his personality!

6. He’s in a band that practices every wednesday night. 

7. Mark’s a PERFECTIONIST, which can be annoying to live with,  but great for our clients who want the perfect, most awesome photos. 

8. I have been water skiing my whole life, I thought I was the best one in town until, Mark took off his Wake board and put a pair on for the first time, he then decided he was going to try Slalom or “single skiing” and he is better at that too! :(  

9. Marks a genius! I am dead serious! His mom tested his IQ and he was labeled ”way above average ” by teachers. Thats why I feel fine calling him a nerd!

10. Mark is obsessed with good music to the point where he will interrupt the juiciest story to listen to an “awesome” guitar solo. 

Now that my guilt has been released by writing this post and I dont feel like a jerk for making it the “candice show”, I should talk about why we even have this blog… Neil and Nadya’s wedding was a few weeks ago and not only did it rock us to the point we got giddy moving from each event, we got to work with some of the chillest people. Nadya came down to our studio almost 6 months ago with one of her bridesmaids. The first time I met Nadya you could tell she was going places in life. Her and Neil had been together for ten years, they had amazing jobs, and they had such awesome personalities. The minute Nadya left I turned to Mark and said “man, I hope we can work with them!”

The first time we met Neil, was at the E-session, he was just as amazing as Nadya, and such a blast to shoot.  During their wedding we were so relaxed knowing, the wedding we were at was put on by Nadya and Neil! We feel so lucky to be apart of thier wedding story and we would be super stocked to work with anyone of their friends in the future. Here are a few of our favorites from the day!

May 22, 2009 - 5:04 am Lisa - Great coverage! The detail shots are STUNNING. I'm guessing the couple (and most of the party) is Filipino? :) Anyway, got a kick out of this post. I've been doing most of the writing over at our blog too and now I'm feeling a wee bit guilty about it. Haha. It's just too much fun.

May 29, 2009 - 11:50 pm Embrace Life - You know why I love this? The locations are not particularly "beautiful", and that can be challenging, but it totally doesn't matter here because you've made them work and created art for your clients. Rock on.

June 3, 2009 - 9:05 am nadya - Mark and Candice are AWESOME! I'm sooo glad I chose you guys as my photograhers. You captured every moment w/ perfection....even w/ the little mishap w/ the limo you guys manage to get great shots w/ very little time and space...can't wait for the day after photo shoot....love you guys!! you ROCK!!!
