A big old thanks to Kelly Prizel, who had me along to help her and Natalie shoot Bill and Harry’s fabulous wedding at the Carnegie Institution for Science way on back in the day. (This is my last 2011 seconding wedding still in the blog lineup, yay!) Bill and Harry had one of the most stylish, prettiest weddings I had ever seen, so I took too many detail photos and I’m sharing too many. Their colors were yellow and gray, what do you expect from me!? Check it:
Going way back again, this time to a wedding I helped the wonderful Erin Lassahn photograph more than a year ago (I know, bad me blogging so late). These two were so much fun and their Raspberry Plain wedding was beautiful, even if it did get a little rained out.
There’s a lot of advice out there about choosing vendors. And in my opinion, much of it creates extra work for folks getting married that’s really unnecessary. For instance, some websites (I’m looking at you, The Knot) have enormous lists of questions to ask photographers: What gear do you use? What do you wear to the weddings? Do you require a meal? The truth is, the answers to most of these questions are totally irrelevant to the point of the inquisition: is this the right photographer for you? So I’ve put together this guide to help couples figure out if their photographer is the right one for them. I’m assuming here that we’re getting down to photographers in your budget.
