guy makeup

guys, i want to encourage you to embrace the idea of wearing makeup for your wedding/graduation/any even where you will be photographed.
Trust me, your photographer will thank you for saving her hours of touch up work! men, you have to remember...it's not just the lady who needs to look fly on the big day. you are HALF of the couple! you are going to be in ALL of the pictures! just do yourself a favor and cover up those blotches and dark circles :-)

what did i tell you?

 

Kids LOVE to be on the floor at weddings! i have no idea why, but after photographing countless weddings i have found trends, and one my favs would be : you guessed it! kids on the floor! Some of my other fav topics are: pointing brides (and others), texters anonymous and 'i'm thrilled to be here'.
hey, i have to stay sharp, ok! it is like a scavanger hunt!

kids are just hilarious to me at weddings. they cannot really figure out what is going on or why they are wearing these tiny tuxedos or mini weddings dresses. they want to roll around on the floor and they can really go either way when it comes to getting their pictures taken. all in all, kids make me laugh and generally make the whole wedding day much less serious and much more fun!
