We're starting something brand new here on our brand new blog, which we hope will be equally exciting and informative for our pros and couples. Since WedOverHeels was designed to be a supportive platform to share, grow and connect with each other, we've decided to regularly single out and feature pros from our community. We have already discovered some unreal talent, and we can't wait to introduce these pros to our brides and grooms!
For our very first Pro Spotlight, we've selected Lucid Captures Photography -- a company we've collaborated with on several occasions and who we are now privileged to call dear friends.
Based in Seattle, Lucid Captures offers photography for people in love worldwide. Their creative, modern and unobtrusive style of photography focuses on telling your wedding story in the most authentic way possible while providing with an unforgettable experience from start to finish.
Lucid Captures is comprised of principle photographer Michael Movsevov and his studio manager/assistant Anna. Don't even try to pronounce Michael's last name, seriously don't. We're fabulous friends now and we don't even try;) We just call him Michael Mov with a running joke that he should have named the company "Mov'elous Photography". Haha!
While leading up to our launch of WedOverHeels, we connected with the Lucid Captures team on Twitter and decided to head out for coffee in Vancouver the next time they came to town. After spending a day with these two lovebirds, we were smitten. It would be hard to find a sweeter, warmer, more supportive pair than Michael and Anna.
From Michael:
"Your wedding is a once in a life-time experience; a day filled with love, laughter and tears of joy. You are going to be surrounded by your loved ones and most importantly, getting married to the love of your life. All of these elements create a unique story that is truly yours. My goal is to carefully craft that story into meaningful photographs, all while allowing you and your families to experience the day exactly as you have envisioned."
From Anna:
"As a studio manager my job is to work with you throughout your engagement to make sure that all the details of your wedding day are in order. I ensure that you have the best possible experience with us by answering all of your questions and promptly replying to your emails.
In addition to being the girl behind the scenes, I often assist Michael on the day of the wedding. Once in a while, I will even snatch up a camera and shoot throughout different parts of the wedding to provide a different perspective."
We had the pleasure of collaborating with Michael and Anna on a shoot to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary. They took our vision for the shoot and ran with it. We couldn't have possibly had a more enjoyable, relaxed time.
Michael knows how to create stunning photos and his passion for photography is visible in every frame of his work. He will often be stopped in his tracks or even interupt himself when inspiration strikes and the light is just right. The resulting photos are perfectly timed, full of true emotion and life. If you want beautiful, epic photos of your big day, you want Lucid Captures.
Michael truly loves what he does, and he does it so well. We literally (yes, literally) cannot say enough good things about Lucid Captures and the two phenomenal people behind it.
