My previous blog post was about capturing Becca and Jordan’s engagement photos. After capturing their engagement photos, the next thing to do was photograph their wedding day.
Read MoreBecca & Jordan's Engagement /
In the summer of 2019, I was contracted to photograph Becca and Jordan’s wedding in December. In my wedding packages, I always include an Engagement shoot. When possible, I like to get to know the couple before the wedding day by photographing an engagement shoot for them. It helps us get familiar with each other so that when we get to the wedding day, we can eliminate the variable of meeting each other for the first time.

Read MorePhotographing a Children's Birthday Party /

Read MoreShooting My First Roll of 35mm Film /
A few weeks ago, I decided to purchase a film camera for a couple of reasons: To learn a new medium, stretch my creativity, and have fun continuing to learn and pursue photography. Until now, I only had experience shooting digital. With digital, you really have an unlimited amount of photos you can take - you’re only really limited by the size of your memory card. The camera will continue to shoot so long as you have battery and storage space. Film photography has a different look and feel than digital, but in addition to the aesthetics, film forces the photographer to be more careful and methodical compared to digital photography.
