Wedding Photographers are the Best

Imagine taking a job where the client hates you before you meet them, nobody wants you around, and everything you do is an inconvenience. I may have mentioned it in a blog before on the subject of weddings when it is not just money and your professional career on the line but quite possibly your actual physical health. This is not about film vs digital, though it could easily be.

Years ago, I was asked by a close friend to shoot his wedding though I had never shot one before. So like a fool, I rented a Hassy 500, a pair of lenses and a flash on a stick then set out to totally screw the pooch.

Here were my problems boiled down. I didn’t really know how to move and frame a ceremony. I had no idea how the flash was going to affect my exposures. Outside the familiar comfort of strobes, I was totally lost.

See in most other forms of photography you have people in a box. You get to learn about what works in that box, how to light, pose, and the one lens you are going to mount. You have a playbook.

“Wedding? F**k no! I only shoot engagement photos, let some other fool face down a rabid bridezilla!”

So… you break down the wedding scope to: engagement, ceremony, reception, group photos, and random still life. Engagement is really the most creative, you have locations, freedom to pose people that are not about to have a mild stroke, and nothing has gone horribly wrong yet.

Benj Haisch (I admire you Benj) has a great video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XRK-ZL74Jg about using an outdated camera and only two lenses. He really put it so eloquently, I can’t add much more to it.

When you have infinite gear your likelihood of getting “the shot” goes down unless you intimately know each piece of gear and the outcome. This probably comes at the expense of needing to shoot a million shots in the first place.

So, I don’t fault anyone at the beginning of their journey even with a new single piece of equipment taking a lot of things and learning because… (insert inspirational quote about baby steps before running a marathon)

I don’t know, I am rambling now, but I think when you sense physical consequences over failure, you have to be pretty brave or one hell of a sales person.

So you’ve agreed to stand by your friend/sister/cousin/co-worker on their big day. Now what? Well, much like the lucky couple to-be; START SAVING. Even the most low-key wedding ain’t gonna be free for the members of the wedding party. There are so many costs that, if you’ve never been a bridesmaid, you would never even think of.

If it’s not blaringly obvious by the fact that I have been in 7 weddings, I should tell you that I have never planned one my own. But, I’d like to think that planning to be in one is very similar to planning one, be it on a much smaller scale. That being said; however, it’s not a bad idea to start chucking away money right from the start. A few bucks aside each pay check will lighten the load at the end, as the big day will come sooner than you think. Pick an amount to set aside each week for expenses that will start coming your way almost immediately. Unfortunately, I have not always taken this advice myself and I have spent a few weeks after a wedding financially, and physically* recovering.

What expenses, you ask? Shit, I’m probably going to forget some while writing this. There’s the obvious ones: dress, bachelorette, day-of glam, etc., but those all come with their own add-ons. Do you have the right bra or shoes to wear with the dress? There’s another $30-$100. Is the bachelorette a destination or weekend event? There’s flights, hotels, food and drink, the works. Day-of glam can be the priciest part, and don’t forget to get your nails and feet done before the big day. Don’t want to be the only bridesmaid with crusty feet and chipped nail polish.

In some cases, you may even have to contribute for the shower. It’s custom for the mother’s to plan/finance the bridal shower, but every wedding/family/bride is different. Something to keep in mind.

Obviously, the bride is going to set the tone on how lavish or casual all these events are. I mean, get yourself a bride that’s letting you pick your own dress and wants a bachelorette in Colorado to hike and do guided meditations (that’s what’s on deck for the next one I’m in and I am pumped). There is nothing wrong with bowing out of a destination anything, but just know that that will add on a tick on you being ‘that bridesmaid’. She asked you to be in her wedding because she wants you there for all the fun.

And lastly, keep most, if not all, of your opinions to yourself. The maid of honor will take the lead planning (for those of you bestowed with that title, that will be a different entry all together) but also taking her cues from the bride. If you feel you won’t be able to afford any aspect of the wedding, bow out gracefully. Being the bitchy bridesmaid who wants all the plans changed on her account isn’t a cute look for anyone.

A Guide To Hiring A Wedding Photographer
By: Alexandra Robyn
Tags: Wedding Photography, Weddings, Minneapolis Wedding

Another day, another wedding. It’s always easy to say that isn’t it? Things like, “Cara and Sam are getting married”, or “ I attended a wedding last week, everything was beautiful.” All everyone ever talks about is the wedding, no one mentions how crazy all the wedding planning actually gets!

Don’t you worry newly engaged couples, I have got your back. I know you’re on the verge of a breakdown with all the excessive wedding planning but I can help you out. I can help you pick the best wedding photographer your city has to offer! Interested? Read on!

Why You Need A Photographer

First things first, let me list down 5 reasons as to why you absolutely have to hire a photographer.

The first thing people will ask you on hearing about your wedding is, “Where are the wedding pictures?” All your family and friends, together and happy is nothing short of a miracle, you better record this! You’re going to spend crazy money on an event that you won’t even have any proof of? Come on! You need a photographer. You’re kids and grandkids are going to demand to see pictures, what are you going to show them? It’s your special day, a once-in-a-lifetime event, I for one think it deserves to be captured.

I’m pretty sure I’ve persuaded you into hiring a wedding photographer, now, let’s talk a little about what qualities to look for in a photographer.

What To Look For In A Photographer

Photography is an art form and not everyone can do justice to it. It’s much more than just clicking a button on the camera. You need to know about angles, photographic terms like exposure, contrast, shadows, and more!

Besides being skillful there are some other qualities that you should look for in a photographer, which include,

Patience

Communication Skills

Hardworking

Kindness

All these qualities are what elevate a photographer to a whole new level. One other thing that catches my attention is photographers that are multi-talented. I myself am a photographer residing in Minneapolis. Whenever I give out advertisements in the newspaper and online, I make sure to add two headings, ‘Wedding photography Minneapolis’ and ‘Family photography Minneapolis’.

Adding this into the ad gives my potential clients an idea about the experience I have. It also reflects my ability to work with family and friends, ensuring that the wedding pictures come out amazing!

Hiring A Photographer

Once you’ve narrowed it down to some 2,3 photographers, it’s time that you meet with them in person. I find this to be a crucial step so that both the photographer and the client can form a bond and it will eliminate any awkwardness on the actual day of the wedding.

Wedding planning can be overwhelming and it may overshadow the actual reason that is to be celebrated. The celebration of love.

I hope you all have amazing weddings, with photographers that will capture your happy moments for an eternity.
To Clara: My own precious

June 8, 1929 Saturday Evening

My Own Precious:

This is coming weekend and really I can feel myself slipping into the land of loneliness. However, I shall use the best method available in order to have a “little date” with my precious little sweetheart — write a note.

Clara, I have had two letters from you and really, I must tell you, that I truly love your nice letters. It really inspires me to think of you, to realize what a wonderful girl I have and makes my heart thrill with sincere appreciation to feel assured of the fact that you are soon to be mine in every since of the word.

Clara, I sincerely hope to make you one of the happiest girls in the world. I know I do not know how, but I hope to learn the answer if it be an answer.

Since our past relations have been wonderful. Your letters slept with me last night, and really in my imagination that long black hair and sweet face were present — “Little Precious” goes to slumber land with me each night. Darling, I must not become sentimental and give way to my feelings in this matter, but I do want you to continue to keep in mind that you are my ideal helper the one that I want to live for and with, and if necessary die for.

Mrs. Hughes must be our good friend, for she ask me about you every day while you were in the hospital and appeared to be so sympathetic. I think she is so nice. Good friends and fellowship with one another should be cultivated. For instance, I have no doubt but we love each other supremely — however, on being away will really prove to some extent our devotion to each other. I miss you in everything, and therefore can in a broader since appreciate your greatness.

Sweetheart, remember he is not growing tired standing guard as your precious face keeping watch over his own while precious sleeps and too, remember the great desire of his heart is that he may always be able to say “All is Well”.

Lovingly Yours,

Riley

A Father’s Lament

A Father’s Lament

He stares in disbelief at the beautiful woman that stands before him, and silently wonders, “Where did the time go?”

It was only moments ago it seems that he saw her in the nursery, bundled up in small blankets, so very tiny among the cloth. Even though she was with all the other newborn babies, she might have well been the only one there because he never heard the others cry or saw another one sucking on a thumb or bottle. Just his own new child, this little wonder of wonders as she slept. She made small sucking motions in her sleep, and he wondered what babies dreamed of in their innocence.

In the blink of an eye, she was three years old and he was fetching her out from the top of the big oak tree out front of the house, only to have her go right back up moments later. Her mother used to worry and fret, “She’s always up in that tree, one day she’s going to fall and break all her bones.”

He taught her to ride her first “big bike”, running behind her and then beside her until she realized he was no longer hanging on and helping her. He held her and kissed her scraped knees better when she fell off and skidded on tender skin.

He remembers a time when they used to play “wedding”. She said she wanted to marry him when she grew up, and he would hum the wedding march and put his gold wedding band on her tiny finger.

But as most girls do, she eventually stopped falling off her bike and started falling for boys. Instead of coming home and climbing the big oak tree with her homework in tow, she stopped coming home until late. A quick supper, a kiss on the cheek and then out the door to be with her friends.

He wonders why he never saw the changes then, but he thinks he knows. Too many hours at work, an unappreciated supper and just wanting to unwind in front of the TV, to forget about the day and the bills and the mortgage.

He realizes now what he did not then, and wishes he could regain the moments when he could read her a story and tuck her into bed at night. To kiss her smooth forehead and say, “Goodnight, sleep tight, don’t let the bed bugs bite!” as she giggled that perfect little girl laugh.

She grew up too fast and before he knew it, someone had taken his place. No longer was she daddy’s little girl. Now a grown and graceful woman took her place, and she was here in a white gown with flowers in her hair and a bouquet in her hand, waiting to be changed from a Miss into a Mrs.

“She is a stunning beauty,” he thinks in the present. When she goes to speak, he expects perhaps a child’s voice, but her womanly voice is clear, and adult, and true.

“It’s time daddy.”

With a tear and a sigh from both of them, they walk down a new road to the tune from not so long ago, where another man will place a gold wedding band on her still petite finger. Until that moment though, he will hold her hand and dream of a time when she was still his little girl.
Mistakes Couples Commit While Choosing Wedding Gardens or Banquet Halls in Delhi NCR

If you want to have a memorable wedding, you must pay extra attention while selecting the wedding venue. Selecting a good wedding venue requires thoughtfulness and effort. If you take the decision without much research or in haste, you are very likely to ruin your wedding. To keep you from selecting a wrong venue, we are sharing with you the common mistakes that couples commit while choosing wedding gardens or Banquet Halls in Delhi NCR. Take a cue from us and make sure you won’t make a similar mistake.

Not visiting the venue

The internet has made our lives easy but too much dependency can harm in many ways. Many couples trust the pictures available on the official websites of the hotels and convention centers and shun the plan of visiting the venue. They check two or more banquet halls in Delhi NCR on the internet and select the best one based on the pictures and services mentioned on the website.

This is the wrong way of selecting wedding venues. You must visit the venue along with your partner before booking it.

Not choosing a wedding hall that allows you to get your own wedding vendors

Selecting a wedding venue with a list of approved wedding vendors looks like a million dollar deal but it can ruin the wedding. Many couples select the venues with the services offered by them and meet disappointment on their big day. Sometimes it’s the décor and sometimes its food that baffles the couples. You must wary of this mistake.

There are many Wedding Halls in Gurgaon and Delhi that allow the couples to rope in their vendors of choice for each and everything be it décor, catering, sound, or lighting. You must ask them if they allow you to get your vendors. If not, you must make sure if their vendors are good enough at their respective jobs.

Not tasting the menu

Although the banquet halls in Delhi NCR offer good catering services, it is always advisable to taste the entire menu. If you find the menu underwhelming, you can ask them to get the caterer of your choice.

Often times the couples don’t pay heed to tasting session but this is quite important.

Not asking about potential repair or construction

Many couples forget to ask if any major construction or repair work is going to happen at the banquet hall at the time of their wedding and suffer a great deal of pain due to construction noises traversing their zeal.

To make sure this doesn’t happen at your wedding, you must ask them about potential repair or construction at the venue at the time of your wedding.

To the Sweet Country Bride

Tags: Country, Weddings, Bride, Rustic

We’ve talked about the Country Club bride on here and I gave you my picks of the best country clubs to tie the knot, but now it’s time to shine the spotlight on the best farms and barns to walk down the aisle with some cowgirl boots.

1. The 1932 Barn

The 1932 Barn is a small but sweet venue sitting on a 100-acre farm just 20 minutes outside of uptown. They offer an all-inclusive package with a 10-hour day of service and before the big day they offer a two-hour design consultation and a one-hour rehearsal along with getting ready space for the bride and groom.

One thing that is convenient about the 1932 Barn is that they offer their pricing on their website. A Saturday wedding package costs $8,750 with $8,250 for only a reception. A Friday or Sunday package costs $8,250 with $7,750 for only a reception.

The chandeliers and openness of the barn provide the perfect rustic feel that can be perfect for a casual or elegant farm wedding.

For more information on how to book the 1932 Barn, you can visit their website linked above.

2. Rolling Hill Farms

One of the best parts of Rolling Hill Farms is that they have multiple outdoor venue areas for a ceremony and even offer the option to customize your outdoor ceremony site.

Their reception space is very large and allows plenty of room for a dance floor tables and food. Above this is the bridal suite complete with two makeup bars and a bathtub and a groom's suite that is the perfect man cave.

One bonus is that they include two storage closets full of decor that are available to use with no additional charge. These closets contain decor such as mason jars, burlap table runners, whiskey barrels, church pews, and many other options to set the perfect rustic scene.

3. The Farmstead

Located in Mount Pleasant, North Carolina 30 minutes outside of the University City area the Farmstead is a beautiful farm venue with a sister venue, The Farm at Brushharbor in the Concord area. It is a 350-acre working cattle farm, family-owned and operated by a family of full-time farmers.

Both venues offer climate controlled reception barns and the option to have pond side or covered ceremony sites. Which provides options for those who want to still have an outside feel without feeling like they have to depend on the weather.

These are just three options with that perfect rustic, country chic feel for the sweet southern country type of bride. To learn more about these venues you can find all of their contact information on their website.
Elie Saab Jr. Wedding

The perfect wedding. The perfect location. The perfect husband. The perfect dress….

Now imagine that perfect dress being two perfect dresses…and now imagine those two perfect dresses being made by Mr. Elie Saab himself. Now imagine that perfect husband being Elie Saab Jr.

This was Christina Mourad’s reality this past summer, and luckily enough I was in Beirut at the same time. Even though I didn't attend the wedding I felt like I did just being in the same city as them.

With a Myriad of festivities in Lebanon throughout the entire weekend, Elie Saab wanted to bring all of the wedding guests to Lebanon for his sons iconic day. With houses throughout the world they could have chosen anywhere (maybe somewhere a little easier to get to) for their wedding, but the couple proudly chose where they were from to hold the ceremonies. The families of Elie Saab Elie Saab Jr and Christina Mourad thought big, having invited 1,200 people to the grand affair. The guests included the likes of Bianca Brandolini d’Adda, Karolina Kurkova, Sara Sampaio, Dita Von Teese, Toni Garrn, and Chantal Thomass. I was in the hotel where a handful of them were staying and got to see them walking out all dressed up in beautiful gowns. I mean they were attending the son of Elie Saab’s wedding so everyone had to dress to impress.

There were a handful of celebrities and even royals who flew to Lebanon to attend this unbelievable ceremony. Truly Elie Saab found a way to bring the people to Lebanon.

The bride had two wedding dresses designed by Elie Saab that she wore on the wedding day, one at the ceremony and one at the reception. Along with two other dresses for the pre party evening and the after party.

Lets just say that any girl would love to be Christina Mourad and be able to wear those dresses on their wedding day.
The Sad Ballad of John & Cynthia

He was ‘aggressive and rebellious’ and she was ‘Miss Prim’.

John and Cynthia at art college

John and Cynthia met in September 1958, at Liverpool College of Art, where they were both in their second year. In her memoir John, Cynthia recalls:

I’d seen John around the college but had never spoken to him: we moved in completely different circles. I was surprised to see him in the lettering class — he didn’t seem the type for the painstaking, detailed work involved. He hadn’t even brought any equipment.

A reluctant and disruptive student, Lennon had been banished to the lettering (calligraphy) class when all his other lecturers refused to teach him. The college rebel wasn’t about to turn over a new leaf, (‘most of the time he did no work at all’). When John did show up, he ‘did his best to disrupt the class’.

His appearance was equally unpromising:

When I first looked at John I’d thought, Yuck not my type. With his teddy-boy look — DA (duck’s arse) haircut, narrow drainpipe trousers and a battered old coat that was too big for him — he was very different from the clean-cut boys I was used to.

There also appeared to be a social divide, which Lennon, with his reputation for ‘caustic wit’, liked to exploit:

I had always…{been} anxious to please and do well, but John was the opposite…aggressive, sarcastic and rebellious … I was terrified he might turn on me and he soon did, calling me ‘Miss Prim’ and taking the mickey out of my smart clothes and posh accent.

Shared bonds

In fact, that their backgrounds were more similar than appeared on the surface. John’s loud promotion of himself as a working class outsider was misleading. Though his early childhood had been emotionally unsettled, he had grown up in a comfortable home in the suburbs. He had also attended one of the best schools in Liverpool.

Like Cynthia he had also recently experienced devastating bereavement:

A mutual friend told me that his mother had been killed in a car accident at the end of the previous term. I missed my father {who had died around the same time} desperately so I felt for him.

After months of flirting, the romance finally got off the ground at the end of year party.

While we were dancing to Chuck Berry John Shouted. ‘Do you fancy going out with me?’ ‘I’m sorry but I’m engaged to this fellow in Holylake’. The moment I said it I wanted the ground to open up and swallow me — I knew I sounded stuck-up and prim. ‘I didn’t ask you to fucking marry me, did I’ John shot back.

This exchange established the tone of the eight year relationship that would follow. John boorish/playful, Cynthia self-doubting and hopelessly in love.

That night their physical relationship in a room borrowed from fellow student Stuart Suctliffe. The romantic ambience was unpromising:
Cake-Smearing a Bride Should Be an Immediate Cause for Divorce

This face of makeup wasn’t painted on by a third-grader, goddammit.

While your groom and his gaggle of miscreants rolled out of bed 30 minutes before making their way down the aisle, you and your bridal party were up at the buttcrack of dawn to start hair and makeup.

The hours upon hours of sitting and talking and eating teeny sandwiches and waiting and waiting and waiting were gruesome. Several times throughout the day, you weren’t sure you’d all make it out alive.

Once things get moving, the day passes by in a flash. The next thing you know you’re listening to speeches from everyone and their grandmother (not even your own grandma, just a random Nonna off the street), silently pleading to Sweet Baby Satan to make the torture end so that you can finally let your hair down and get sloppy drunk.

But before you can do that, there are still more important tasks to be done that will be preserved in photographs forever.

You and your new groom both cut a chunk of cake and are smiling for the cameras. You stare into the eyes of your now-husband and tell him telepathically that if he even thinks of smearing that cake on your face, you will end him.

His glazed eyes from several drinks and lazy smile have mischief written all over them.

But before you can give him a verbal warning, the cake is being clumsily smeared all around your mouth and nose like cheap clown makeup.

The crowd mostly laughs and cheers — but you can sense your bridesmaid running for cover knowing that Bridezilla is about to make her glorious entrance and bring the entire building down.

This expensive face took hours to paint on. Now, as you remove cake laced with ultimate BETRAYAL from around your mouth, you can see the foundation coming off with it.

The makeup artist left hours ago, so she isn’t here to touch up your expensive visage.

The pimple that gloriously emerged in the worst place on the worst day possible has now been freed from its cosmetic prison and is threatening to wreak havoc on all of your wedding guests.

As your groom laughs joyfully, you imagine taking your stiletto off and stabbing him deep in the chest with it, just so that he can have an accompanying wound to match the one you now have in your own back.
