FOUNDRY SUITES BRIDE & GROOM

This past Saturday we ended our 2016 wedding season. And what a crazy busy season it was! We we want to take a quick minute to thank all of our lovely 2016 couples. You were all amazing and we were so happy to be a part of your day and to capture so many memories! Now it's time for a little break for Neal and I. We are off on vacation. Time to enjoy each others company outside of work and with family!

Now we take you to after Jill and Nic's ceremony at the Foundry Suites and Banquets! They had their ceremony right outside in the courtyard. So, we decided to do some quick portraits there first.

Oh yes, Bentley is back! This image actually has a little deeper meaning than what you see. There was a photo of Nic's parents with their dog that was taken a long time ago. It was on one of the tables for the reception. Nic had asked a while back if we could do something similiar.

Like I mentioned before, Nic and Jill were great in front of the camera, as well as Bentley. I love how Jill and Nic are in their own little world and Bentley is just hanging out posing for the camera!

Stairs & Pillars BRIDE & GROOM

Happy Monday! We hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving and enjoyed spending time with their families.

Today we bring you Kristin and John! Kristin wanted a very timeless and elegant style of photos. She also wanted to go to locations that were not super popular. This location has amazing architecture. So many people like to go to Albright Knox Art Gallery or the Historical Society to get the pillar look.

On your wedding day, we want you to enjoy your day and not worry about waiting to take your turn for photos because another wedding is there. We really try to come up with locations that are not so popular if we can. Or to take you to areas that another wedding is not at, and then heading back to more popular spots.

I love this building that's located outside of the downtown area. We had the whole place to ourselves. Kristin and John have such an amazing connection. And also an amazing relationship with so many jokes and laughs. It's hard to not laugh a lot around John. For this, we wanted them to feel like they were all alone. But, not so serious either. Neal gave them a starting point and then let Kristin and John lead the way. They did a great job too!

This image is just gorgeous!

LIGHTS, CAMERAS, PAPARAZZI!!

Happy Halloween! Hope everyone had a safe and fun weekend! Today we bring you this fun image from Chris and Christine's wedding at Hotel at the Lafayette!

How cool is this? We always love to come up with creative images with the wedding party. Neal has had this idea for a while, but we needed the perfect wedding party to make it happen. Everyone was so nice and helpful throughout the whole day. Early in the day we told the wedding party we had an idea for later in the night and that they needed their phones. Everyone was all for it.

It was time to create a red carpet feel with Chris and Christine. We had the wedding party join us outside and bring their phones. Time to flip on those flash lights and put the lovely newlyweds in the spotlight. The wedding party was amazing! They were yelling and cheering. Some were even singing! All Chris and Christine had to do was hang out in the middle and focus on each other!

I wish I could say this was a super easy shot. It was and it wasn't. Did I mention it was pouring outside? That left Neal, our lovely helper Vanessa (you all know Vanessa from the Disney Castle photo. Her hubby was a groomsman), and I out in the rain under umbrellas. Keeping the gear from getting soaked was a must. Some of the lights were covered by plastic bags we borrowed from the candy station! The wind didn't help much with that either. It looks like this image was lit by all of the phones but it was really lit by three of our lights. Thankfully, everyone was very cooperative for this image. Once we got the shot it was hard to tell them to go back inside! We reminded them that they had a dancefloor to fill back up and they were back to partying hard for the rest of the night!

Chris and Christine looked movie rock stars just like their engagement shoot and will sign autographs if you see them!
