We ran our first live run last Saturday at Halle and Tom's wedding. It was a blast. Everyone of all ages had a great time! I will post some pictures soon. Our basic site is up for now, more to come though. Check us out at www.readysetvogue.com!!!! If you want more information, click here.

Just got this email and thought I would share it with you. It really makes us feel great when clients really love what we do!

Karla & Dave~ I wanted to send this email to you before the honeymoon, but that didn't end up happening so it is coming to you now. I want to express our sincerest thanks to you both for making our wedding more special than we imagined. I am a firm believer in the beauty and intimacy that truly great photography expresses. You both are gifted and should be told on a daily basis how much your work touches those lives whom you encounter. Our friends and family were raving about the photos. You even made believers out of some of the groomsmen who were never really into photography to begin with. The slideshow was AMAZING! It made our wedding have that extra special thing that still has people talking. I think you make everyone look like models which is pretty cool for a girl who is only 5'2" tall. ( I had my fashion moment thanks to you--and Chad was so GQ looking :) I knew from our first meeting that you were the people for the job, and I am so happy that the decision was made to switch from the photographer that we had originally booked. It was meant to be and we feel blessed that you both were a part of our day. I just wanted to let you know what a huge part of our day you were, how much we appreciate all that you did. We were honored to have you with us during this life changing event. We couldn't have picked a better team and we are looking forward to seeing more photos from the day. We know for some, pictures are not something they would put as much money into as what we did, but we feel that with every click of the camera moments of a lifetime were captured. Thank you so much for your unique and unmatched style. We felt like rock stars that day...and you helped us look like them too! You really have that "it" factor in the world of photography. Thank you for using your talents to help us capture the most important moment in time that we have shared. With sincerest thanks and gratitude~Melissa Fiala-Perry (& Chad too! )
