wedding portfolio, updated

My wedding portfolio has now been fully updated. While it's common to add or a delete a few throughout the year, this was a major overhaul, highlighting much of my work from 2009. Thank you to all of the brides and grooms who asked me to witness and make art on their wedding day.

The photographs found there are the product of a documentary technique to photography. As much as I enjoy the wedding celebration, I never consider myself a guest but rather an observer with a camera. While always inclined to that approach, in 2009 it became a conscious goal and better integrated throughout the wedding day. I hope the portfolio reflects that.

back to blogging

I've written this post dozens of times in my head over the past few months. My last post was just a couple weeks prior to a new arrival, in the midst of the year's busiest time for weddings (fall for me), and the beginning of a new school year. Needless to say, through the end of 2009 was one the busiest times of my life, and 2010 so far as been finishing projects from 2009 and simply recovering.

I've not been photographically idle--the opposite, in fact, to the point that I have little time to post new work. Among other things, I've spent significant time on assignments for Parable Magazine and developing some new studio projects. I hope to begin (again) sharing some highlights of recent and new work as I settle in to a more regular schedule.

To those who have been inquiring about my blog, thanks for your patience and continued support. To new readers, thanks for being here.

Jessica + Tony

In honor of their wedding tomorrow, here are some photos of Jessica and Tony taken a few weeks ago at Fort Foster in Maine. We had stunning light and stayed until they kicked us out.

Meg

As I mentioned in the previous post, I had the opportunity to work with Meg from Tangorra Wedding Planning at Jen and Will's wedding. We were in the bar of The Phoenix Room during dinner when I captured Meg pondering.

Jen + Will's wedding, part 5

Jen and Will's reception was held at The Phoenix Room, which has great character. They chose "pick your own" favors: a table full of all sorts of candy for filling into a container. Brilliant!

Special thanks to Megan from Tangorra Wedding Planning for ensuring that the day ran smoothly--and for taking care of me. I could easily get spoiled.
