If you’re here you are likely marrying your best friend in the near future and I’m so incredibly happy for you! i Know that Wedding planning can be a lot and you may be feeling overwhelmed by all of the advice and tips out there. So I’ll keep it simple and share just one piece of insight: Soak up every single ounce of love and joy to be found in the present moment. Your day will go so fast, so take in every last second.
Hug your people tightly. eat and enjoy the food you picked. dance your hearts out. chaotically cut your cake. embrace the weather. take your time. laugh until you can’t breathe. cry happy tears. Give each other letters, or share a private moment. feel all of your feelings.
I promise you the wedding photos that stand the test of time are the ones where you’re fully present in the moment and with each other. So i’ll come ready with my camera and be sure to capture all of it, so you can look back with nostalgic hearts for all the years to come.
I fully believe that the best wedding photographs are the images that capture real emotion and honest moments. As a documentary wedding photographer, I focus heavily on candid imagery that encapsulates the emotion of the day while mixing in natural and lightly posed portraits. I’ll gladly offer insight through the planning process to help make the process easier for you, but when it comes to the day itself, I try to hold off from doing much directing because at the end of the day, a wedding is a celebration, not a photo shoot.
There is so much beauty in the perfect imperfections of candids. The real and honest moments that, when photographed, will become emotional artifacts to your wedding day. The photos that will really, really mean something to you all those years later.
