Our favorite this week from Tahoe Unveiled

This week on our sister site, Tahoe Unveiled, we highlighted a photography contest sponsored by Tahoe Unveiled in collaboration with Theilen Photography - and we are participating as one of the judges! See below for all of the details.  

 

Wedding photography takes enormous amounts of dedication. It’s not about the type of camera you have or what lenses you use; it’s about YOU, the photographer! It’s about the time it takes to get to know a couple and capture some of their most intimate moments. We want to celebrate our love for wedding photographers. We will be compiling a collection of the most stunning 20 images and a 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. Submit your best Lake Tahoe wedding photographs to our very first Best of the Lake contest.

With industry judges: Stephanie Anderson of One Fine Day Events, Matt Theilen  of Theilen Photography.

Submissions | Please email your most creative and gorgeous wedding photos to info@tahoeunveiled.com with the subject “Lake Tahoe Wedding Photos”. Please label your photos with a keyword and a number so your photos are kept anonymous from the judges.

This week on  our sister site we were inspired to bring in Pops of Red for decor, were persuaded again to go get a Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks (caffeine, I love you!), and swooned when we saw all the great Dip Kisses!  I hope everyone has a great weekend and manages to take advantage of the great weather, warm sunshine and scenery before the snow flies!
