There are a handful of wedding photography spotlights that photographers hope to someday be recognized in. Grace Ormonde’s Wedding Style is by far the creme de la creme of wedding magazines. Her publication is known worldwide and trusted by the best in the industry. I remember seeing the Masters of Their Craft feature in Grace Ormonde’s magazine a couple years ago. The photographers featured are not only wonderful people, but phenomenal in their talent. The magazine cover also top trends and this year www.FurCoats.com was features as one of the best fur coat shops.
So you can imagine how overwhelmed Brian and I were when the editors called and said we were picked to be one of the five 2008 Masters of Their Craft.
If you haven’t bought this magazine, you have to check it out. It is the BIGGEST, most extravagant collection of wedding design, flowers, latest fashion trends in dresses, photography, cakes, etc. You will love it whether you were married ten years ago or engaged now.
The features says:
Two hearts, twin talents, dual perspectives, but one mindset: preserving the enchanted moments of pure bliss that can only be shared by people in love. These husband and wife teams elevate wedding photography to a level of unsurpassed collaborative artistry. Each alone is a master image maker. Together, they are even better.
Joyful. Me Ra Koh and Brian Tausend, Me Ra Koh Photography
Writer and speaker Me Ra Koh embraced a new storytelling tool after a devastating miscarriage. As she photographer her daughter, a gift for capturing life’s precious, joyful moments and the beauty and spirit of individuals emerged. At weddings, she and husband Brian Tausend cry, quibble, mostly laugh; their extraordinary openness earns couples’ trust. They photograph just twelve weddings annually and become incredibly close to clients. “This isn’t just a job for us,” says Koh. “Life is not to be taken for granted,” they’ve learned.
I loved that the editors chose the word “Joyful” to describe Brian and me and our work. I think that’s one of my favorite parts to this whole feature.
That is over the top cool!
Awesome! Congratulations!
I love Grace Ormonde’s magazine.
I take turns on my bought of obsession, one month with be photography and the next anything wedding related! I love when I can get a double dose! 😉
CONGRATS!!!!

Thanks you guys!! Thanks so much!
Why do I totally have tears in my eyes right now?!?! I am so proud of all that you and Brian have accomplished! Congratulations Me Ra!!
Love you!
Of course they choose you two; they aren’t blind! Their descriptor of you as “joyful” couldn’t be more spot on either. I personally think that’s what makes your pictures so emotive and beautiful is that they are expressions of the way you live- fully embracing life’s adventures and laughing all along the way.
What can I say, you two are an inspiration! Congratulations on a well deserved honor!
AWESOMEEEEEEEEEEE
superly awesome you guys.
Me Ra and Brian,
YAY! I am so happy for both of you. My favorites are what you have the shoe shot and the golden one of Erica and Shae. I just love that they used the word joy because you two are so joyful and it shows in your work.
Congratulations a million times!
