Jasmine Star Workshop – Evan and Lacey!

By Katie [Shadowplay]

If I am to be honest, before the workshop I didn’t really know too much about Jasmine Star.

At the time, I knew that she was a ‘rockstar’ photographer from America, had a cute dog named Polo … and that’s about it. So when Matt surprised me by booking me into the workshop I wasn’t nearly as excited as my friend Lacey.

Lacey LOVES Jasmine Star, you could even say that she is a blog stalker :) So when Cathy Crawley put out a model call for the workshop I suggested to Lacey that she put her name forward. A few days later I got a phone call from Lacey who was over the moon!

Jasmine and Cathy had picked Lacey, and her husband Evan, to be one of the ‘real couples’ for the workshop!

It was so much fun having Evan and Lacey join us in Sydney on Monday and they did such a great job being models! Having been in front of my camera a total of 2 times (once for their engagement shoot, and again for their wedding) I think Evan did particularly well :) It takes a special guy to agree to fly his wife down to Sydney and be subjected to being the ’subject’ for 20+ photographers.

Lacey is such a sweetie and I’m so lucky to be able to call her one of my best friends. She is one of those people who is just as beautiful on the inside as she is on the outside! The week I went to hospital, Lacey cooked me dinner and brought over sliced mango … yes, all cut up into little pieces ready for me to eat.

When one of the other photographers attending the workshop asked me if I ‘felt weird’ about one of my brides being picked to be photographed by the one-and-only Jasmine Star, I was a bit taken back. It hadn’t even crossed my mind that it would be at all weird.

I honestly was (and still am) 100% totally stoked for Lacey! Gosh! Who wouldn’t want to see one of their favourite people all dressed up getting photographed by one of the best photographers in the world! If anything, I’d say that I’m a little worried that she won’t want to hang around me any more … you know, now that she is a famous model and all!

Here are some of my photos of the wonderful (and now famous) Evan and Lacey from the workshop! Plus, there’s a sneak peek of their actual wedding photos at the end.

Katie.

P.S. Lacey – I think you are covered for good photos of yourself for a while…. :)

Here are a few photos from Evan and Lacey’s real wedding!

Yes – it has been about 6 months, but we have been holding off on posting them until our new branding is sorted. Unfortunately that’s taking a little longer than planned… so here’s a sneak peek for you!

Random fact – Evan and Lacey were married in the same church that Matt and I got married in… :)

Beautiful photos! You’re so lucky and have such a great husband!

Oh jealous! I would love to attend a similar workshop, they seem to be on constantly in the States (according to the other photography blogs I stalk!), wish there were more good ones here.

Feel free to share any awesome tips you learnt!

What lovely pictures! Lacey, you look just beautiful – in both the workshop and wedding day pics.

Matt & Katie, amazing work as always!

I love this post Katie :) Lacey and Evan were the perfect models for the workshop, they were awesome. But even better than that are your photos of their actual wedding, when I first saw them all those months ago I knew they would be perfect for the workshop. Thanks for sharing them (as in Lacey and Evan, not just their photos) with us, you are too fabulous!
