Fine Art Canvas {Alicia and Kyle}

I absolutely love it when clients send me photos on how they display their wedding photos in their home and office.  Alicia just sent me these photos of her new canvases and I just had to share them!  You might remember Alicia and Kyle, they got married last October and are the couple behind The Charity Wedding concept.  Kyle is now a chiropractor and owns a clinic, Camp Verde Family and Chiropractic Wellness Center.  Alicia works alongside her husband, and also heads up the very popular wedding and philanthropy website, The Charity Wedding.  In addition, this couple is out and about volunteering all over the state for various charities, and they also foster dogs for Golden Bone Rescue and the Beagle Arizona Rescue Club.  I'm still figuring out when this girl sleeps :)  This is her home office desk and I love how she put a collage above where she works.

 I love the ones that she choose to get printed, they all work together very well!

This one hangs above their fireplace.  I can't think of anything more romantic about this one going there :)

Thanks for sharing Alicia!  Hope you and Kyle have a wonderful Christmas and Happy New Year!

NAU Graduation Portrait Session {Isabella}

Every now and then we get to meet an Intern that really impresses us and Isabella is definitely one of those ladies.  We got to know Isabella throughout 2011 while she was an Intern for KD Event Designs.  We would see her work through the day of a wedding, always with a smile, while she managed the success of an event.  Whether she was clearing a table, setting up an escort card display, running to find needle and thread for a bride, or checking with the couple to see if they needed any assistance at the reception, she did it professionally, enthusiastically and with an effortless positive attitude.



Isabella is reaching a milestone this week when she'll be awarded a Bachelor of Science in Interior Design.  Given Isabella's talent and dedication, we can only imagine what successes she'll accomplish in the future.  












Here's what Kim, of KD Event Designs, has to say about Isabella:
"Isabella is a very creative, sweet and organized individual.  She excels at staying on task under pressure, which is a critical trait needed in the Event Planning and Design field.  I'm very lucky to have her as an asset for my business.  Her future holds many possibilities and I am excited that she has decided to stay with the KD Event Design team for 2012."




Congratulations Isabella!  We look forward to working with you again and wish you the best for your exciting future!
