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!

Sarah and Dean are Engaged!

Sarah and Dean's patience for their engagement session proved to be well worth it. We were scheduled to shoot a couple of weeks earlier, but decided to hold out for some leaves and a warmer temp. What an awesome afternoon we got too! Hanging out down by the Mississippi was so much fun. There were others out enjoying the day and the river, but it kinda felt like we were on a camping adventure hiking through the wilderness. Funny that we were pretty much shouting distance to downtown Minneapolis. I just love that about our awesome city. It's dotted with these fabulous pockets of nature:)
We ended our evening at Pizza Nea (our new favorite Pizza restaurant) Have I ever mentioned their artichoke dip?? To die...
Needless to say, we had an awesome time and can't wait for Sarah and Dean's wedding in July.
Here are some shots from their engagement session.

I wish I could take the credit David, but that shot was all Stacey. It's pretty sweet because it actually is a double flare, the sun and it's reflection off the water!
