10 Fun and Unique Wedding Photo Ideas

Wednesday, February 15th, 2012

So you want fun, cool, classic pictures. And you don’t want to look “posed”. I totally understand. Looking at my wedding photographs, there are only a handful that I really, truly love. They’re the moments when I see the joy, the laughter, and all of the fun that we had on that day.

The best part about my favorites? They were ALL posed. Every. Single. One. Yet, they don’t look like it. Everyone always comments on those poses. And they’re completely shocked that they were planned.

How can you achieve these effortless fun and unique poses?

Photo Booths: Should You Have One?

Tuesday, December 13th, 2011

Over the last few years the growing trend of photo booths at weddings has started to raise many questions with professional photographers. Some photographers have even started offering these set ups as a part of their package plan. In this short article I would like to note both the positive and negative effects of having a photo booth. I shoot about 40 weddings per year and so far I have had only one where a photo booth was used.
