We are proud to announce the recent Grand Opening of our new studio in Sugar House and we’ve got this KILLER video from the amazingly talented David Perry to share a bit of it with you!

The new studio, dubbed ‘Studio 1053′, is home to ZumaPhoto, its sister studio Sprout Photo, and the Salt Lake annex of the incomparable, 6-time Best of State winning caterer, Culinary Crafts.

Thanks to a lot of help from our partners and friends, we were able to throw an awesome party for some 200 or so of our friends and favorite vendors!  We make a pretty sweet team, if I do say so myself.  ;)

On with the show…

UPDATE: I have been fielding many email requests about to the song as I forgot to link it:
Jungle Drum from Me and Armini by Emiliana Torrini
(6 weeks at #1 on the German pop charts [but she's actually Icelandic])
I fully expect to be hearing it on countless slideshows.

We would not have been able to put on such a lavish event without the love and support of our friends and vendors, so in no particular order, here are the ‘credits’:

• The exquisite floral designs were from our good friends at Every Blooming Thing
• The band was Party of Five.  Thanks for keeping us dancing!
• The incredible ice sculpture came to us courtesy of Swanovations
• Bar service and signature drinks by Baccus
• Makeup for the ladies of Studio 1053 by Anna K Style
• Catering, Service and Site Design by Culinary Crafts (of course!)
• Photo booth courtesy of FotoCabina (SO much fun!)
• Invitation and t-shirt design by PixelWhipped
• And of course, major thanks to David Perry for putting this video together for us!
• I would also like to extend my deepest gratitude to the extended ZumaPhoto crew: Logan, Ryan, Angela, Jessica, and Tami. Team Zuma Rules!
• Mascot:  Zen
