When it comes to photography, I love the process of working with a couple, a bride, a family, or a baby to get that “perfect shot”, a frozen moment that tells me something about who my subject is. It’s almost as if they’re sharing a tiny little secret with me alone as I look through...
Ulysses and I had the privilege of being guests at the wedding of two good friends last weekend – what fun! Since another of my friends, Jasmine, doesn’t normally wear much makeup, she came over beforehand so that we could do our makeup together. She knows I’m crazy for M.A.C. Cosmetics, which were formulated specifically...
We hope you enjoy our blog and the images included in each entry. We always try to show photos that have large doses of fun, creativity, and that will compel you to visit again and again. We want you to enjoy simply clicking around, but not at the expense of making your wrists and fingers...
One of Jenni’s most important tips to brides is: “Makeup is your friend – don’t be afraid of it!” As photographers, we know this is such a true statement. We know how beautiful you are, but a great makeup artist will help enhance that beauty even more so and help you look amazing in your...
We were thrilled to see that Kylie and Scott enjoyed the photos from their Honeymoon Photo Shoot so much that they immediately placed an order for a few of their favorites. Well, we’ve received those prints in our studio, and they look GORGEOUS! We love showing our work in larger sizes as these display so...
I remember years ago shopping in a mens clothing store. A gray-haired gentleman was helping his son buy his first suit. I overheard the young man say to his dad, “What about this one? It’s pretty inexpensive.” The dad looked at the price tag, and then he put his hand on his son’s shoulder and...
It might come as no surprise that brides sometimes check our website (and this blog) well before even choosing their wedding venue. Although we’ll probably never get to see every single location in the northeast, we’ve had a chance to visit some spectacular venues and to show them off beautifully in photographs. Sometimes couples want...
News alert!! For all you brides who are having trouble convincing your moms to allow you to be adventurous with your dress, and all of you who are nervous about getting that gorgeous gown wet, dirty, or otherwise contaminated… Lauren’s mom (Lauren is our famous tubing bride) left this comment for us on TrashTheDress.com: To...
“Something old, something new” – It’s a familiar expression. The old tradition of keeping the wedding gown spotless and untouched has been with us for ages. That’s understandable, considering the expense that usually goes into making the bride look her best. But then the gown was vacuum-packed and stored in an attic, never to be...
It might go without saying, but we’re going to say it anyway: We LOVE wedding gowns. You might think we’d become a bit jaded since we photograph them all the time. But we’re always on the lookout for something unique and different in a gown; we thrive on unique and different! We immediately start coming...
We are not your traditional wedding photographers. So it’s no surprise that on occasion we get asked, “Where are the family photos? I don’t see many on your website or in your album samples.” Another related question might be, “I enjoyed your photographers’ photos, but I wish there had been more family groups.” I’ll take...
They’re here!!! I’m so excited to say we just received our samples of our two new products: The Art Box and the Folio. These beautiful handcrafted items are perfect for showing off your favorite wedding or engagement pictures, and both make amazing gifts. I described them in detail in a previous post here in our...
In speaking with a few of our brides, we have found that not everyone has been finding our recommended products for their photos. Since we offer extremely high-quality products that are not available elsewhere, we wanted to make sure everyone knows how to find them. Once you enter your proof gallery, you will see a...
All of the couples who work with us will no doubt notice that we emphasize spending some time alone with the bride and groom during some segment of their wedding day. We cannot state enough how important this is. Of course, we will get plenty of candid moments of you two throughout the day. However,...
Here are a few tips about decorating the aisle that may prove helpful: First, consider blocking off the sides of the aisle with tulle or something similar, as you see done to the right. Besides looking beautiful, this will ensure that you have a clear aisle to walk down, rather than people jumping into the...
