My handsome brother is getting married! We are so happy to welcome Chantel into our family. We love her so much, and they couldn’t be a better fit. We recently took a quick trip up to the mountains of Utah to photograph them exploring the area around Old Snow Basin. It was the perfect setting for such a gorgeous couple.

Maxine and Titus : Prosser Wedding
What a beautiful day! Maxine and Titus were married in the heart of Washington’s wine country at the Seven Gables Pensione. The French-inspired farmhouse and the picturesque setting along the Yakima River created a serene backdrop for the couple to celebrate their marriage with family and friends. Congratulations!

The Shumates in Argentina : Buenos Aires
After spending time in Northern Argentina, we returned to Buenos Aires to explore the city often considered the Paris of South America. While this title illustrates a portion of the city’s charm, it fails to capture the unique culture and personality that are easy to fall in love with and hard to forget.
We visited the house of Travis’ all-time favorite singer, Carlos Gardel, and visited the sacred grounds of La Bombonera, the stadium of football giants Boca Juniors. We wandered through the historic neighborhood of San Telmo and the chic barrio of Palermo.
We were inspired as we walked through El Caminito and La Boca, marveling at the beautiful colors in the port neighborhood. Our favorite area was the beautiful Recoleta, with gorgeous Mansard roofs, classic cafes and friendly porteños. We adored our time in Argentina, and we look forward to returning in the near future.
Travis’ close friend, Pato, and his new wife, Micaela, visited us from Bahía Blanca.
