Stephanie and George had a beautiful and intimate winter wedding. The couple had a specific window of time to get married within so they opted for a Thursday evening wedding. A unique time made for a cozy winter gathering with close family and friends and gave the couple access to wedding vendors that were already booked up on the weekends. We had about an hour between the ceremony and reception to take the wedding photos so we shot at the same location and focused on getting portraits that captured the joy of the evening.

Getting married means I’ll have to spend some time on the other side of the camera! Obviously being a photographer, good wedding photographs are pretty important to me. For our photographer we went with Sarah Wintle. I have had the pleasure of working with Sarah on Auxiliary Magazine shoots; she has modeled for me for a few different features over the years. Not only is she a wonderful model, she’s a wonderful photographer, with a true talent for journalistic, documentary style wedding photography.

A couple weeks ago we met up with her at Chestnut Ridge Park for an engagement photo session. An engagement session is a great way to get comfortable with your wedding photographer and now I feel very confident that working together in reverse roles for our wedding will be a lot of fun. Here are some of the highlights from our shoot!

I’m engaged and I’m getting married! A few weeks ago my boyfriend, co-homeowner, and Auxiliary Magazine co-editor asked me to marry him during a cozy evening in on a cold winter night. It was sweet and simple and after ten plus years together, we are very excited to really be planning the wedding we have been playfully talking about for so long.

Today weddings are taking on many forms with many brides and grooms thinking outside the box and opting to for more unique and customized weddings that truly reflect them. Jennifer and Richard had rented out a camp ground for the weekend and asked their guests to join them for a camping wedding! Guests enjoyed campfires, crafts, and games. Groomsmen and bridesmaids were “camp counselors” and wore customized T-shirts. The groom wore a relaxed linen suit and sandals. The bride wore a handmade crochet dress. I shot their wedding photos around the lake in the center of the camp; it provided a beautiful setting.

Over the years I have been asked to shoot weddings hear and there. I have had the pleasure of shooting some unique and fun weddings and it has given me the desire to shoot more. If you are planning a unique wedding or know someone who is, consider a photographer who is used to unique and specific aesthetics! (AKA me!)
