Here we are Kristy Behrs, Tanja Lippert, Me (jilljohnson) and Karen Rusten the Fab 4 photographers of Tanja Lippert Photographers. The best group of gals around. I wish the entire team would of been there at the same time because we have a fabulous crew (and we need a picture of all of us). But it was a spectacular night.

We officially had the Grand Opening of Artique and Tanja Lippert Photographers this past Friday in Los Gatos. It was a great night and festive as the city of Los Gatos started the evening out with the lighting of the Christmas tree. I just wanted to thank everyone who made it out to wish us the best in our new endeavor. Many of you were missed but I so enjoyed the e-mails you sent with Congratulations. We couldn’t of done it with out the help of the following people. Nicole DeAmbra wedding consultant extrodanaire who helped plan the evening, Kelly Kodak Clifford of Precious and Blooming who supplied the flowers, Dan and Cassie of Los Gatos DJ’s who created a very festive playlist for eveyones listening pleasure, Sara of Tululabay catering for the yummy food, ( what about those cinnamon roll cookies , and to Ceil of A Memorable Event for staffing. They were the best. We stayed to clean up afterwords (around 1a.m) and they had already done it all. It was just better then expected. But of course to Ryan and Tanja Lippert and the staff at Artique for helping pull this thing together.

I wish I would of taken more pictures of everyone there but I was just having such a great time I just wanted to talk with them all. In fact, many of the pictures are courtesy of David Ethridge of A Video Reflection and Stacie Tamaki of a Flirty Guide. It has been fun to see what photos people are sending us. As you can see Flamingo had a great time. He came prepared with mistle toe tied on him so that he could get kisses from all the girls. It worked out great for me too if you can tell from the photos. If you had a chance to attend tell me what you thought. I hope you had a great time. If you didn’t get a chance to stop by please do. We’re open Tuesday-Saturday 10-6pm. We’re looking forward to seeing you.
