"This is..." Seattle Event Planning | Studio Life | Seattle, WA
Since moving to Seattle it has been such an adventure, and by adventure I mean growth, stepping out of my comfort zone and meeting incredible people. One of the most influential moments leading up to me moving to Seattle was meeting Carla Marie, if you’ve been checking out my blog you probably have seen her here before (HERE). I was on her podcast Side hustlers, which then leads me to this post.
One day, after very recently moving to Seattle, Tatum, the editor in chief of “This Is…” magazine asked if I would help her and photograph a styled shoot for their magazine helping people with local resources on party planning.
We decided through some fun planning that we would have some of the Side Hustlers featured on Carla Maries podcast as our vendors!! Our theme was “Golden Birthday” and our Models were of course, Carla Marie and the stunning Crystal Rausch who runs a online consulting and personal branding business.
Planning a party is not my cup of tea, but man, photographing one is! Its also super incredible we were able to create an ALL FEMALE OWNED BUSINESS vendor list that was 100% Seattle.
