To be fair, I’ve only had to raise my voice a couple of times during wedding party photos in my 10+ years of shooting weddings :P How you plan the flow of your wedding day REALLY matters, especially when it comes to your photos. Here are some things I’ve learned over the years that help make the wedding party photos go smoothly…
Read MoreI can’t believe this is my last wedding blog of the year. If I’m being quite honest, I didn’t know if this wedding was going to happen because of Covid. Two weeks before Meaghan and Jon’s wedding, state restrictions came back in full force, leaving them to make some difficult decisions in a matter of days. Their wedding was scaled back quite a bit. Their venue was changed. But you know what didn’t change? The outpouring of love for these two. It was felt in person and virtually.

These two were originally planning an October 2020 wedding but decided to push it back to 2021. With that, we pushed their engagement photos back and actually shot them the week of their original wedding date. Prior to our session, Augie and Ryan decided that they were going to get married in an intimate ceremony in Ryan’s parent’s backyard surrounded by the people who are closest to them. Any couple who takes this route - I applaud you one million percent! Marriage is about the love after all; the party is an added bonus. And there will always be a time in the future for the big celebration, but for now, in a time where minimalism has taken the reigns in many people’s lives during this pandemic, an intimate ceremony with a handful of people is *CHEFS KISS* perfect….
