thanks for visiting the blog of STUDIO6.23 , a.k.a. ben and mindy peterson.

this is our wall for posting favorite pics from recent weddings or kid sessions. but somehow, a bunch of other randomness finds its way here as well.

we got married in 2000. makes it simple math to remember how long we’ve been married. and we’re crazy about our three kids.

i guess that’s why we shoot weddings and kids. it’s what we know — and love!

to keep up with our work or a bit of the peterson craziness, enter your email below or click the little squares that look familiar to you.

mark and eryn engagement photo session

mark and eryn are two of the nicest people ben and i have ever met! they are kind and sincere and have a genuine love for each other that is visible to anyone around them. though we hear this a LOT…. they “warned” us that they might not be that photogenic….. whatever! i think everyone will agree with me that they were fabulous subjects and that there is no shortage of modeling skills here. we had so much fun traipsing all over downtown and we LOVE the fact that they were willing to try anything and go anywhere. thanks for the adventure!! and thanks to michelle and matt, my friends from high school, for sending these two fabulous people our way! we can’t wait for your wedding!!! here are a few of our favorite shots from the day….. enjoy.

    I like it. The girl is very photogenic and the fellow could be too.

    Where do you find the backdrops use?
    Did you use any off camera flash?

ben spent all weekend at the “ROCK THAT OCF” workshop with Ali Hohn, flexing his off camera flash muscles. good fun with a handful of local photogs and a great chance to meet a few others from all over our wonderful “snowy” state.

we typically shoot in all natural light to capture a certain sense of realism. but there are those times when flash simply “rocks” and that was what this weekend was all about. so here’s a few of our favorites.

these are the most fun streaks i've ever shot.

how adorable are these two?!!! we had such a fun time downtown with jon and whitney (and their lovable golden retriever)! the weather was beautiful and we had just enough warm sunlight to use it in the pictures to our advantage. SCORE! and when jon showed up in an orange striped tie and new converse all-stars for the shoot, we were so excited! and of course, whitney, who is beautiful, had on this cute little number, with a million accessories in tow…. LOVE accessories! jon and whitney are a very genuine, fun and relaxed couple that are not only madly in love with each other, they also love Jesus! we cannot wait for your big day in may and are honored you chose us as your wedding photographers!

    These pictures are ridiculous… I can’t wait to have mine done!

    Love the close up of them by the tires!

  • Don Stowe said:

    What a great photo shoot. I think #’s 3,9,15,16,18,20 have the most impact and are my favorites. # 20 looks like she had something on her mind that might happen f they went inside the building.

  • Whitney said:
