I’ve said since the beginning of this business that to just simply take beautiful portraits is not enough; your work should reflect not just the raw joy and emotion of the day but your clients should recognize themselves in each of their portraits…meaning their genuine, real smiles…no fakeness!! When your clients look through their gallery, they should feel the same emotions that they did on their big day because the portraits are just that REAL! It’s easy to pose a couple in a pretty spot and snap away but I always, always aim to really pull out each unique personality to bring those portraits to life in a way no one else can. Gorgeous bride Amanda is SO bubbly in personality and character and getting her to really laugh in her portraits was a BREEZE!!! (As I pointed out during our second round of portraits…I can tell when she’s really laughing because she gets the same little nose wrinkle as me!!!) From the minute Kevin saw Amanda walking down the aisle (just wait until you see his sweet reaction below!!) these two had so much chemistry and so much genuine happiness, it was impossible to capture a staged or forced moment. Real smiles, real laughs the ENTIRE wedding! A photographer’s dream. Aside from having the prettiest wedding details, this wedding was so full of incredible surprises and is hands-down one of the most unique events we’ve EVER shot!! The only way to do this wedding justice was to make this our biggest reception candids share we’ve ever had on this blog. And wait until you see why!!! Oh my gosh, I love this couple so much and I’d say I love them like family except we technically are (Kevin’s sister is married to my cousin!!) So much fun! Congratulations, Amanda and Kevin!! xo
