Our trip to Alaska was a new experience for us in many ways. Neither of us had ever been to Alaska AND it was our first time taking all of our equipment on a plane. Imagine packing a steadicam, glide track, tripod, monopod, 3 cameras, lenses. . . there wasn’t much room left for clothing! Needless to say, we were a little crazy packing and worrying as we stayed up all night waiting for our 4:30 am trip to the airport. The moment we handed our checked bags to the agent, it was like the world was lifted off our backs! And you know what, we were totally under-weight on our suitcases. We really could have squeezed more equipment–or a new wardrobe–into those bags!
We were so thankful for what we did bring as we had our own set of mishaps. Someone tugged the aisle runner during the ceremony and our backup XH-A1 camera fell & broke. It’s in for repair.. . but maybe it’s a sign to go all-DSLR all the time.
The weather was windy, sunny, cool, and foggy. We were shocked by how late the days really lasted–at 10pm it felt like 5pm in Seattle. The “golden-hour” lasted for about 6. It was awesome!
Max and Tamila absolutely showed us a great time! More importantly, they had a wonderful wedding that came together with so much support from their family and friends. People flew in from as far away as Pennsylvania and Iowa and “nearby” places like Delta Junction, Alaska. We have so many great memories from this trip!! A big THANK YOU and CONGRATS to Max & Tamila!!!
