  • Downtown Richmond Area

    A few days ago, I went to downtown Richmond with Chris to check out some Richmond favorite local spots. Among them were Canal Street, Cary Street and Pipeline, which is all adjacent to the James River. We spent a few hours roaming around the area. Chris was kind enough and VERY willing to do a little “modeling” for me. You could even say, he was even a little excited about his big debute. 🙂

    The camera was turned on me for a little bit while he tried his hand at photography. He loved his pictures and I have to admit, he got some unique shots! We even managed to get some photos together. It took some time running back and forth before the timer went off, but even so, it was a lot of fun.

    There were a bunch of people around enjoying their day in the sun. I will share those pictures as well as more of the surrounding area in another blog on another day.

    As always, thank you for following my blog. We hope to venture out to more areas later this week, so check back for more on the local area of Richmond!

  • Picking Your Wedding Palette

    As a little girls, usually you can picture your wedding, the colors, the people, the dress. What did you see when you were a little girl? What do you see now? One of the very first things you will do as a bride, is choose your wedding colors. There are many ways to do this: What is your favorite color? What colors inspire you?

    Whatever you decide, will look wonderful. Look at photos of other weddings. Pinterest is a great source for inspiration. I know I personally pin everything in sight as well as my photographs of weddings I have taken. Look at these and see what stands out to you. Do you picture yourself standing in your dress in the middle of these wonderful array of colors?

    Once you pick your colors, then everything else seems to fall right into place. As far as flowers, look up which flowers are in season because different flowers can be difficult to get out of season. (This also helps with budget)

  • Fleeting Wedding Details

    FLEETING WEDDING DETAILS

    With the snap of a shutter, a camera captures a single moment in time, one that can never occur again in the exact same way.

    At any given wedding, there are an infinite number of these moments that pass into time. Some hold in place for longer than others; some come and go in the blink of an eye.

    It is with fleeting details as such, that some wedding photojournalists earn their keep. With an eye honed through years of visual training and practice, they constantly scan the wedding scene, as if looking for that close-focus moment that is sure to pop up next.

    It is a skill that is often repeated, though possibly overlooked or underappreciated, since it is second nature to photographers with an eye for details.
