TJ + Emily | Album Design

This year I’m doing more destination weddings than I have since I started my photography business. I thank the Internet and my brides. For some, trusting that a photographer you have never met will just show up the day of your wedding is a stretch. This is the most important day of your life and the extra stress factor of a photographer not showing up is high on the list of potential wedding day catastrophes. I specialize in destination weddings and help the bride in several ways. I will arrive to your destination one day before the wedding and two days before if it’s a holiday weekend. Getting there early not only insures that I will be there for the bride without travel delays but also allows me to do something unique. Normally the day before the wedding I find myself with a rental car, my gear, and time. You bet I’m going to drive around and take pictures! This allows me to capture art prints of the area that the couple can use to enlarge and use for artwork to decorate their home. It also is a great to have when you choose a destination spot that is special to you both. It’s also fun to put together your photos in a coffee table book that means something to you both rather than random picture books you might pick up at a bookstore. I have completely replaced all of my coffee table books with custom printed ones from each of my travels. When guests visit they look through these again and again. Now you have a personal story behind your images so they mean even more. I posted a few images from the day before Emily & TJ’s wedding here.

So thank you Emily and TJ for having me as your destination photographer for your wedding! Here are my favorites from the day in your customized album design.

(Rotate screen) This year I was a bit ambitious. In-between school drop off and pickup one day - I designed a “look book” for the sunflower festival. There is a spread that shows how the lighting in the field changes by the half hour and sun vs overcast days. I’ll have a copy at the photo sign in table and my pod for those that would like to turn it’s pages… and maybe even see yourself as I know I have a lot of repeat clients each festival 🌻
Every wedding has that photo… this was theirs.

The one that somehow holds everything—the energy, the calm, the just-married feeling you can’t quite put into words.

But the truth is, it’s never just one moment.
It’s a whole in-between chapter.

The quiet moments, the laughter, the “what do we do with our hands?”
The way it all unfolds naturally when you’re just being together.

Part 1: finding the light, settling the nerves, easing into it.
Part 2: where the magic sneaks in ✨

This is what your portrait gallery can feel like.
