Come On In and Stay A While

Welcome to the blog of Staja Studios. We are STAcey and JAson Thon, the dynamic duo (self proclaimed) behind Staja Studios! This blog serves as our way to keep in touch with everyone we know, like, and love. We thought it would be a fun way for people who know us to keep up with what is going on in our lives and studio, and a wonderful way for those of you who may have just met us to learn more about who we are.
We would like to bring together our professional and personal lives. You can expect to see pictures from our latest weddings, engagement shoots, portraits, etc. As well as some personal, fine art, family pics, and other projects. In addition, we will be sharing our "Cheers and Jeers", and other random ramblings about whatever strikes our fancy. In the future we are also looking for ways to make things more interactive, if you will. This may include voting for a particular marketing piece, contests, and various other activities.
Thank you all for stopping by, and don't forget to - Get Captured!

Love Takes Flight

Eric and Kate are a fun couple who's wedding we are going to be photographing in October. Their story is interesting to listen to, but must have taken patience. When they met, Kate lived in Kentucky and Eric lived in Minnesota. At any rate, this required a fair share of time in airports and on planes. So, for their engagement session, they wanted to get some images at the airport. Well, it's not like you can just randomly walk anywhere and start taking pictures in an airport anymore. Needless to say, the four of us had a good time getting some fun shots without getting kicked out.

At The Airport


After wrapping up at the airport, we went to Lake Nokomis and the surrounding park area to continue the fun. We had a great time taking some pictures on the beach, getting ice cream, on the rickshaw, etc. After spending a few hours with the two of them, you can definitely tell they are in love.

At The Park


To see some highlights of the day, be sure to check out their slideshow.

Good luck with the final preperations you two. We are looking forward to the wedding.
