Fine Art Wedding Photography is dedicated to capturing the true essence of couples through emotive and authentic imagery. The focus is on natural and timeless photography that reflects the personalities and experiences of each wedding day. Specializing in natural light photography, the aim is to create images that celebrate life and encapsulate the love, laughter, and joy of the couple and their loved ones. The ultimate vision is for these photographs to remain powerful and cherished memories for generations, allowing couples to relive their special day with their grandchildren.
The approach to wedding photography is immersive, preferring to photograph from within the event rather than as a detached observer. This method allows for a genuine connection with the couple, helping them to relax and enabling the capture of real moments and candid images. The combination of a calm, fun, and easygoing demeanor, along with the ability to be discreet when necessary, sets this photographer apart. When needed, a more directive approach is used, such as organizing family group shots, ensuring that every aspect of the day is captured beautifully.
Cinematic storytelling is a key component of this wedding photography service. Each wedding is filmed and edited to reflect the unique personalities of the couple, capturing sound, motion, and emotion using advanced cameras and aerial equipment. Telephoto lenses are employed to document the ceremony and reception discreetly, ensuring that the story of the day is told seamlessly and without intrusion.
In addition to traditional photography, an open-air style photo booth is available to enhance the wedding experience. This setup accommodates larger groups without the constraints of a small space, using high-quality cameras and professional lighting to produce elegant 4×6 prints in a variety of customized designs. The photo booth offers a fun and interactive way for guests to create their own memories of the special day.
Outside of photography, the photographer enjoys spending time with family and exploring the outdoors, whether at the beach or hiking in the mountains. Married to Jacquie and father to a talented daughter, Valentina, family life is complemented by the company of their beloved pets, including an English Mastiff named Thunder and two Great Danes, Hoku and Beau. This love for family and the outdoors brings a relatable and personal touch to the photographer’s work, making each wedding project a heartfelt endeavor.
