Photography: At First Sight Studio
At First Sight Studio Snippet: Things were running unusually well the morning of Caryn and Brian’s wedding. What should have been a grey, rainy sky was actually a beautiful blue. Things were right on schedule and Daniel and I were enjoying a relaxing morning with the ladies (a very rare treat). But all this suddenly changed when Caryn’s sister Stacey was getting zipped into her gorgeous BCBG gown… and the zipper broke. That’s right, a full-on split down the middle of the thing. At first I was enjoying myself, taking photos of them trying desperately to get the darn thing closed, but once the drama unfolded, it became clear that this was going to be quite a problem. To add to it, Stacey was completely stuck in the dress as the zipper wasn’t budging either way. Daniel was waiting in the hallway (he doesn’t get to be around naked ladies!) so I joined him so we could quickly come up with an action plan to buy Stacey some time to run to BCBG and get fixed up. Oddly enough, everything went really smoothly after that. We took Caryn and Brian out for pre-ceremony portraits and everything was just fine!
Real Wedding Inspiration: Caryn & Brian
Engagement Shoot: Angela + Domenic
At First Sight Studio Snippet: Angie and Dom’s engagement shoot was by far the longest we’ve ever done (4 hours!) but we were so happy to do it! We took them out for a classic date of bowling, drinks, and a romantic walk, but since we got along so well, one bowling game turned into two and one drink turned into Daniel and Dom having shots… you get the picture! I’m not sure that Angie or Dom were particularly into the bowling idea when Daniel and I suggested it, but we were so excited about it, and they trust us and our vision so much, that they went along with it. It was tougher to shoot than we imagined, but we were confident that we could give it a cool retro/vintage vibe and that photoshop would help us out to achieve this. As always, PS didn’t let us down and Angie and Dom, who were great in front of the camera, didn’t either. The result is one shoot that looks more like 4 different ones, but the more variety the better, right?
