We do!

Welcome to our new blog and our first post. We will use this blog to update our wedding business and give people a chance to see some of our work. We are excited about the chance to make beautiful and story-telling photographs for clients that want the story of their wedding to be told through our eyes. We have tested the waters the last couple of years and are excited to work together to produce beautiful wedding books for our clients. The website is coming, slowly but surely, stay tuned. Steve's studio at 214 N. Washington will soon have a cool and hip window front with our new biz posted all over it, lots of photos of course.

There is a third party in all of this and that is Steve's son Corbin. He helps with hauling the gear and sets it up, he understands the equipment we use and is learning a trade, he is the third shooter and his photographs are awesome. Corbin also holds the record for the most pieces of chocolate eaten at one wedding reception and has become quite an expert in wedding cakes! He works hard, real hard and is fun to have around, he is now old enough to drive and is a valuable part of our team.

We are excited to share this blog with our new customers, and to our old customers, you know what we think of you. You rock! Our goal is to build a business that our clients can trust their special day to us. We want to expand the business, and expand soon. We have several gifted folks that we want to bring on board to make this the best, most respected wedding photography business in Wichita.

Our lives and this business have a story, it too involves photography. Imagine that!

Rasmussen and Tuttle Wedding Photography

Steve Rasmussen and Jeff Tuttle met at Kansas State University in 1985. Both of them were photojournalism students who worked for the KSU newspaper and yearbook as staff photographers. Tuttle and his wife, Laura, introduced Rasmussen to his wife, Sandy, the following year on a blind date. Laura and Sandy were both interior design students, so making the connection was fun for both couples.

After college Rasmussen worked at the Hays Daily News, in Hays, Kansas. Tuttle moved to Indiana to work at the Jasper Herald, in Jasper, Indiana. Both newspapers were small, but nationally renowned photojournalism based newspapers. Tuttle returned to Wichita in 1989, Rasmussen followed soon after.

Rasmussen began with a few contacts in Wichita and built his commercial photography business from the ground up. Steve has developed a unique expression of his trade that results in beautiful photographs. His passion behind the camera is matched by the time he puts in the final product for the client. His work on the computer end of the photograph is second to none. His clients love his calm demeanor and his professionalism towards his trade. Steve provides photographs for corporate clients all over the United States and Mexico. His style is unique, as his background in photojournalism has trained his eye to tell the story in his photographs. He and his wife, Sandy, have two children.

Tuttle has worked for the Wichita Eagle as a photojournalist for 21 years. Jeff has been involved in all aspects of newspaper photography including news, sports, features and editorial photography. Jeff is a two time regional photographer of the year, and was a finalist for a Pulitzer Prize. Jeff has been awarded numerous national awards for his work in photojournalism during his career as his photographs have told a comprehensive visual story to his readers. His passion and enthusiasm for his work leave him at the top of his trade. As a veteran photojournalist, Jeff has a keen sense of timing and instinct giving him the ability to capture the moment at hand. Jeff and his wife Laura have two children.

The decision to collaborate in wedding photography was based on the desire to share their expertise and experience in photojournalism to tell the story of the wedding day, which in turn provided a great opportunity to work together again. Steve and Jeff are dedicated to providing the highest quality work and welcome the opportunity to work with you and your family on one of the most significant days of your life. They want their pictures to tell your story.
