- About This Post
-
I always try my best on the big wedding day to really put the effort into making timeless, breathtaking portraits of the newly married couple. I focus on lighting, natural (and quick) posing, and creative use of architecture or the environment to get truly memorable bride and groom formal portraits. Sometimes we only have five minutes for this part of the day (so sad…), but no matter how little time I have with the couple, I’m going to make every effort to “crush it.”
This gallery contains my favorite bride and groom portraits from this past year (2013) in chronological order, January to December. Sorry if you didn’t make the cut – I understand if I’m off your Christmas card list… In the caption of each photo is the location – just in case you’re looking for inspiration for where to have your wedding!
Please feel free to comment at the bottom, I’d love to hear from you. Oh, if you find the hidden offer – sweet!
