A Simple, Natural Approach

Keep It Simple, for a More Beautiful Result

Photography is a curious thing…sometimes the stars align and all of the elements come together in a soft, natural elegance that you don’t see when looking at the person or scene in reality, but when the photos are done, there it is.

Ava chose a simple peasant dress in muted tones, soft makeup, un-fussy hair and bare feet for her photo session. This simple approach blended with the natural textures of tree trunk and grass, and tranquil light make all of the elements of the photo work together like a fine piece of art. It’s soothing. Why is it that some of the most exquisite things in life are the simplest?

When thinking about your engagement or wedding photography, imagine what you want, and then start scaling it back, removing elements that aren’t truly necessary so that the important ones have room to glow. Light, the first element of creation, is always important, so spend some time thinking about the time of day or evening that the photos will be taken. Keep it simple and watch what happens!

Your Wedding Day is the Launch of your Married Life!

April 13, 2018 • Leave a Comment

Never forget that your wedding day is the beginning of your married life. It can be the launch pad of a long life of cherishing, supporting and loving each other with all of your being. Too many brides and even some grooms get so wrapped up in the details of the wedding that they forget or are too stressed, to shower their beloved with love on their wedding day.

Guests watch to see whether the bride and groom will gently feed the wedding cake to each other with joy, or cram it into each other’s mouths. It’s an omen! As a bride, our culture has convinced you that it’s all about you on this day. Of course it is…to a degree. It’s also about the memories of this day that you are creating for your new husband or wife.

How will he or she remember this milestone day of their lives? How you treat your beloved on your wedding day is how you will treat him or her during your marriage. Make sure the day and your actions come from the love in your heart. You’ll see that love reflected in your wedding photography too.

Little Things Mean a Lot

Just like in real life, photos of the little things often touch our hearts more than photos of the grander things. The first time someone reaches for your hand, the first time your eyes meet, the first time the little brain in your heart sends messages all over your body that something big has happened. The first laugh together, and of course, the first soft kiss! We're emotional beings so photos that stir up the remembered feelings of those simple moments become our greatest treasures. A photographer that's a romantic person whether or not his camera is around, captures the little things, the tiny moments.
