Each photographer is trying to play in his life a frame that has never been done ... Make masterpiece as an artist paints a picture. Photo remembered what people? Making custom photos, the photographer is the creator of something new, this striking viewer.
On this frame couple in love newlyweds views are focusing on each other. And all around creates an illusion of planet, no crowded on the planet ... which only they are ... and their feelings between them!
Here in British Columbia we are blessed with the beautiful colours of the seasons. The cute couple really wanted to have something unique, so we found this. Beautiful deep blue sky contrasting the layered clouds and a sunset to warm up the couple with its golden colours at the famous Stanley Park in Vancouver.
When you look into the eyes of your loved one, you see they answer all the questions: what you need in life ... who is dearest to you ... without whom you can not live ... And when the wind conjures up in your mind melodic song and you are sure that she hears the same song as you hold it in her hand, looking into her eyes, she whispers "I love you! Together Forever." And just last moon alone have witnessed this emotional explosion ... and only it enlightens for couple the way to home ... and the sky paints pastel colors patterns, giving them this beauty.
I want to go back to places many times to photograph people silhouettes at sunset, when the sky is saturated with bright colors. Silhouettes can convey many emotions and at the same time leave the mystery to the viewer that he saw in his mind his own story
This is one of my favourite images of the year, and it just came about as I saw the bride and groom going off for a little walk together – so I just followed along, as you do! I kept away from them, and just let them be – that’s really the essence of what I love to do; just capturing real people, being themselves. I love to shoot wide shots like this, capturing the context, the drama of their surroundings. Of course, in this situation I was massively helped by the light, too – can’t claim credit for that!
This is a wedding in Punta del Este, Uruguay. The bride and groom live there and they are both surfers, beach lovers, so this was the perfect place for their wedding. This moment was right after their first look in the hotel, when we were shooting some couple pictures. The moment just appeared: the bride, the bouquet, the high spot, so we did it, we throw the bouquet!
The love and care shown in this photo is only completed by the beauty of the Spanish location. This was one of the so many gorgeous pre-wedding reception shots taken for this adorable lovers.
A wedding day without sunshine, but with lots of rain and wind... Not really the weather the bride and groom hoped for.Luckily we found a great indoor photo location for their shoot: an old factory with great light!
This was an unusual afternoon at the Britannia Shipyards as it was not packed and we actually had space to create something special. This location is a national historic site where the old ships were made and repaired. It sure looks to me the work environment in the old days was a lot better than what is offered now.
This couple eloped in Paris, and we started their creative portrait session at sunrise. No people, beautiful light, and we got lucky when all the birds came to visit! The iconic Eiffel Tower in the background made the one romantic shot!
Some things never get old. Throwing leaves at people is one of those things. Since this wonderful couple had an autumn-themes wedding and the leaves were falling from the trees at that point, I couldn’t let this chance let me go by. Two people were assisting me in making this photo. I told them to pick up as many leaves as possible, and throw them into the air at the count of 3.
So they did, resulting in this photo. I especially love the expression of sheer joy in the bride’s face. It doesn’t get better than that!
This actually happend on my own vacation. We walked around The Eiffel Tower, when I saw a two photographers and a wedding couple. I just stoped and took a shot. It's was really excitement and kind of lucky for me to see this in Paris on sunset light. I wish the couple all the best and great pictures to the two photographers.
This is one of the best wedding evening's shooting in this year. Every time sunset brings warm rays and it softly fall on your skin, giving it a warm hue. But if you find such a place where these rays catch the water, and sends back to the sky at the same time reflecting it in their surface ... then there are very strong emotions. Newlyweds enthusiastically said "goodbye" to the sun in its first day of their joint family marriage ... They knew that tomorrow morning the sun greets them not separately, but together when they wake up ... loving and happy. Because they are together .. forever together!
Cocktails, appetizers, laughter, and a couple in love -- the perfect recipe for an awesome Engagement Session! Hailey & Justin were super adorable and couldn’t help their constant giggles, smiles and affection for each other. After sipping on delicious adult beverages, we made our way over to the awesome Walt Disney Concert Hall in Downtown Los Angeles. With its curvy stainless steel skin and billowy architecture, it was impossible to not get amazing shots of our new friends. Needless to say, we had a fantastic day!
After three full days of non-stop thunderstorms, everyone was worried that there were going to be no cherry blossoms left on the trees for the big day. Luckily, that morning, the sun came out just in time and we all agreed that the fallen cherry blossoms only made the photos look even more romantic.
The cherry blossom represents the fragility and the beauty of life. It's a reminder that life is almost overwhelmingly beautiful.” - as it was the inspiration for the day.
It was a wonderful day in Munich, the weather, the Sun, clouds,flowers and a huge Palacein front of me: Nymphenburg Palace!
She had such a beautiful and classy red Dress and he was looking reallysharp. When I saw them first,I’ was dying to get them in front of my camera. As much as I love Nymphenburg Palace and all of my fantastic wedding poses, it’s always fun to do something new.This time I wanted to shoot something sophisticated; their pose, their faces,their emotions, their dresses...
Kimberly & Mark wanted to do something different, and asked me to create something bold that represented them as a couple.<br />
We walked around the Davis California until I found the perfect location and this was the end result to cap the night.
After their ceremony, the bride and groom wanted to capture some photos around sunset time at the highest hill surrounding the valley. We all jumped into the father of the groom’s car, went up to the highest point, and captured some amazing photos. If you look closely, you can see their wedding ceremony location down below just to the right of them.
Taken in deepest darkest Cornwall in the UK, this, for me, is an example of ‘shooting through the moment’; just capturing all the little incidentals, not just the kisses and the hugs. It’s just a small thing – James helping Eli as she steps down from the rock – but that little touch of mutual support, that small moment…it really makes it for me. The weather, of course, makes this image too, and we just managed to get back inside before those clouds stopped threatening and started opening!
One thing I love about weddings is meeting people and their families. This is the bride with her two sisters who have a really special bond. In this moment right after the ceremony they were hugging and crying, such an emotional time… and suddenly this crazy orange rice appeared in front to my camera. I didn’t realize how funny the picture was until I looked at it after the wedding. I hope the bride and her sisters remember this moment too.
This photo was taken in terms of wedding photoshoot for the bride Anastasia at amazingly beautiful park next to Elagin Palace, former imperial family residence in St. Petersburg, Russia.
During the summer time we have world famous WHITE NIGHTS period and this kind of sun you can catch only at 8-9 pm. We were right in time that day!
