SHADOW FUN AT TONAWANDA CASTLE

I love this photo from Jennifer and Anthony's wedding at the Tonawanda Castle.

One thing I really like about weddings at the Castle is you can go almost anywhere inside for photos. There are amazing rooms and hallways on the second and third floors. This spot is actually a part of the Castle I do not think I have ever been to. We have shot weddings there so many times too. Great find Neal!

How cool is Anthony's shadow on the staircase wall! It was as though this room was meant to have a shot like this. What a perfect nook for Jennifer to stand in too!

What a fun image!

NIGHT TIME PORTRAIT AT THE CASTLE

How cool is this? Another area, this time outside of the Tonawanda Castle, Neal found for a cool image.

He was scoping out the area outside and stumbled upon this light casting a green hue on the stone walls. The first time I saw this I thought it was out of a Ghost Hunters episode or movie. Then to have the even creepier window with bars on it made it even better.

I love how Neal has this nice, intimate pose for Jennifer and Anthony. I think it looks so good with the eerie feeling setting. It makes the image still have a romantic feel.

It is always great to find new areas for photos at locations we shoot at frequently. We always want to give our clients something different and exciting. Jennifer and Anthony definitely got some different and fun images!

Neal here, this was literally the last shot of the night! After I get all of my "safe shots" then I like to play. Experiment with different lighting, backgrounds etc. What fun is it being an artist if you don't get to experiment and try new things? Throughout the day I captured a lot of bright, airy, beautiful & classic portraits of Jennifer & Anthony, so why not give them something completely different at the end of the night? If they like it, bonus! If this image spoke to Danielle and made her write a blog about it then something tells me that others will like it too! I really like it because I've never really taken anything like it before. The green lights were difficult to overcome so I had my assistant Shane light their faces with one of our lights so their skin and Jennifer's dress wasn't completely washed out in green.
