Here is part 2 of Julie and Matt’s wedding coverage (sneak / wedding i / film) . This might be the last of the year that I post such extended entries on the blog (busy busy), but this wedding was just too fantastic to skimp! I also tried some different things at this wedding, trying to restrict flash as much as possible (I rarely use it–just for a little fill–but used it on maybe 75 pictures total for the whole day this time). One of the great things about working with a client over the course of a year, as I did with Julie and Matt, is being able to learn more about their aesthetic, making me more comfortable to push myself creatively in different ways that suit their style. Julie loves grain and more of a textural and film aesthetic, so I think approaching it this way helped to realize her goals.
Vendors and venues from this wedding:
Bouquets (bride + bridal party): Hello Darling
Food + Floral Centerpieces at Reception: Fox & Obel
