Our Names - Rebecca Zoumberos and Ela Bednarek
Our style- Our styles go together like peanut butter and jelly. We create fun, fresh images and we are always trying something new.
Where we're from- Rebecca is a native Floridian and Ela is from Poland. Now we both live in Tampa, FL.
Why we do what we do- We love the art of photography and the privilege of being let in to someone's heart and soul to catch a glimpse of their true spirit.
The piece of equipment we can't part with- Canon 70-200 2.8 IS lens
The vendor you should know about- The Dressing Room: A fabulous boutique in St. Petersburg that exclusively caters to bridesmaids. My brides love treating their girls to a fun day with Judy trying on some of the industry's hottest designers.
If we had to have someone shoot a portrait of us it would be- Joe Buissink. He is open, honest and makes you feel so at ease. www.joebuissink.com
What we had for a snack today- Starbucks frappuccino
One thing we struggle with- Trying to save some of the money we make to buy practical things like groceries. We are suckers for new camera equipment, Apple and anything lime green.
A piece of advice that improved our photography- Shoot from your heart.
If not a photographer I would have been- Rebecca: Chemical Engineer Ela: Fine Artist/Painter
A hobby of mine - Snowboarding, traveling and playing with Limelight's mascot - our Boston Terrier named Maui.
3 things on our desk- MacBook Pro, Grace Ormonde Wedding Style and a Wacom pen tablet
Rebecca and Ela's favorite image of recent
A product in our shower that we buy monthly- Victoria Secret's Heavenly shower gel
The dream shoot we're still waiting for- Prince William and Kate Middleton's Wedding AND shooting for ourselves capturing cultures all over the world- Thailand, Peru, Japan, etc.
A CD I'm listening to- Rebecca: Samantha - Square One Ela: Virus Manx - Emu
Something we do to market myself- Submit weddings to be featured in The Knot
The last good movie I saw- Rebecca: Memoirs of a Geisha Ela: City of Angels
The perfect client is- Someone who trusts us enough to be his or herself.
The shoes I'm wearing right now are - Still in my slippers and pjs! (Rebecca)
Our best feature- The ability to read each other's minds. We spend almost 60-70 hours together a week between studio time and shooting.
A habit of ours- Getting lost. We need to buy a GPS for the car!
Hillary Clinton- No comment.

. Holy Moly! I had no idea what project director, Aundrea goes through daily. She is suffering from the flu (which I gave to her) Her emails are insane. I did my best yesterday to keep her emails from getting out of control until she comes back to work. Some lucky clients heard from me yesterday and the not so lucky clients get to hear from me today. I have to improve my typing skills. My biggest observation is that I type one email and hit send and 20 more float in. I'm seriously drinking a glass of wine now. Save Me! (ha-ha)
. This Friday evening BluDomain launches "Sophie" sophisticated, classy and stunning. Sophie & Sophia (maybe you have picked up on my hints by now) $500.00 for 24 hours. Appealing and engaging.
.WIN SOPHIE send us an image of your lower legs and high heels girls and men send a photograph of you wearing a tie (no face or lower torso showing) Send them to info@bludomain.com. Deadline is Friday at midnight. We will give away 2 websites Saturday morning.
Ok Kailee, I suppose we should cut you a break on the no blogging ont he 26th thing that no one seems to have called you on. (And I sent Aundrea an email four days ago that still hasn't been answered.)
Seriously sorry you guys are sick and hope it all gets better soon. Looking WAY forward to seeing sophie/sophia!
Hang in there!
Kim
