Enjoy Events: 2013

Styling and designing an engagement or bridal shoot is one of my favorite wedding experiences to put together for our clients. No stress....well, other than what to wear, outfit change, props, where to shoot, weather conditions, and lighting. And, lets not even think about if we are having a good hair day, a pimple appears, or if one is having a good day or bad one. And, of course, being comfortable in front of a camera is always critical and nervous twitch. But, alas...all in a days work. Open up a bottle of Prosecco and have a few laughs and we are off to a great start!

Styling a shoot truly allows for interesting moments to happen. In the end, there are only so many ways you can look up, down, glance sideways, smile, smirk, not smile, and give that "sexy" look. Adding props are fun, but secretly, without the clients knowing it, it gives their hands something to do. Ah, the pressure of where to place those hands! And, of course, props should always fit the personality of the subjects and the wedding style.

With a little bit of time and creativity, great and comfortable moments happen. And, if all else, you might find the wedding designer doing the running man behind the photographer to capture that true smile.

Enjoy some highlights from Darby + Bart's engagement shoot. I know we have.
