It's just an everyday Tuesday. You're hanging out on your sofa, dog cuddled up to you, thumbing through your wedding album. Your eye catches each photo, you remember. More than that, you feel it. Everything about the day: the anticipation, the joy, the emotion, the exhilaration of that exact moment it all began, surrounded by the very best. You can feel it, because it's there, captured forever.
Remember when you first started to fall in Love? I want you to feel that way on your wedding day. Alongside your other vendors and wedding planner, I will be there to support you and make the day go seamlessly.
I only photograph a limited number of weddings a year. Couples usually book me 6 months to a year in advance
I don't work off a generic "shot list". I have found that modern couples generally have blended families, or friends that look like family, and so on. While I instinctually know which images I must capture, I will ask you to fill out a pre-questionnaire with a list of the important people and shots you must have... I like to allow room for spontaneity, because if I am staring at a piece of paper, I miss those tiny moments. Sometimes you just have to drop your plans and look at what is right in front of you. These are my favorite images to make. Depending on the light and venue I may just grab you in the middle of dinner if the sunset is magical, spontaneity makes for some amazing photographs! It is my job to make you feel comfortable. And if you love the images, but not the experience then I haven't done my job.
I love a space with character and good design. Whether it is an old New England farmhouse, with wildflower meadows, a beach, a barn , a lake house, or a majestic historic mansion, with stunning gardens. Even some funky loft with wall to floor ceilings. All of the weddings I photograph are primarily outdoors, or at least partially outdoors. I prefer to shoot with natural light, as opposed to artificial indoor lighting. The images you see in my portfolio are all outdoor weddings, ceremonies and sometimes the reception. I only use flash indoors at night if I need to. I am very unobtrusive and don't carry a ton of equipment. My job is to observe, and sit back, or blend in. Many times, I am mistaken for a cousin, or a friend of the family, which means I am doing my job right.
