Teasers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love wedding teasers!!!

Amazing times at the Scarborough Renaissance Festival!

Merriment.
Love.
Marriage.

It's all fun in FAIRE and love!!!!!

I had the HONOR to photograph this wedding!!! I was soooo fortunate to find this couple and rather, they found me and made my day a fun-filled wedding extravaganza!!!!!

Our day was spent at the Scarborough Renaissance Festival

I was striving to make images for them in all the sense of good family portraits as well as some super-creative fun things around the fair!  We had a BLAST doing so.  I wanted to share one of the images I was really really happy with as far as location/look.  I think there are so many different details to a faire...and once we stopped near the chainmail store - I thought to myself...WHAT CAN I DO HERE?

I tried to shoot through it and could not get a focus - it was too tight-knit together...and my camera couldn't handle it.  But as I walked around it, I noticed the particular garment could work another way!  So I "draped" them in chainmail per say. :)  I hope you enjoy these teasers from their wedding day!  There were a ton more - but i'm always obsessed with the couple by themselves and having fun.  Yes, we did have fun!!!!

Enjoy the FAIRE through our eyes!!!!

This is wedding 1 of 2.  The next one will be up in a few days!!!!

Congrats you two!!!!!

Playtime! - a time of concepts and light.

I had an feeling to work tonite on some fun concepts. I knew i wanted to shoot on the black paper...and i wanted to go a little on the "dark" side.  As I was talking to Sami we had these moments of inspiration...that led us to talk about mini-blinds and the look of shadows.  I began to ask myself....what can i make to simulate MINI BLINDS? hahahahah.

I had a 16x20 piece of acrylic laying around...and realized that if i put painter's tape on there...i would probably simulate some stripes....and then use the video light to give me that "window light" look.  I was wishing i had a couple of barn doors to hone the light in...but it turned out really well after all.

THANK YOU SAMI!!!!
Everyone once in a while, I just wanna work and conceive and do some fashion and concept things!
Mostly to push myself as well as keep using my studio things. :) <3

Here you go, ENJOY

A moment of dreaming....

Testing out objects and inspirations! AND SHADOWS!

I only added some color/contract - these shadows came out amazing!

Sami had some great vintage goodies to work with! :)

Another take on the shadow images.

Having fun with fans and hats.

The chainmail simulation for the sad future girl.

Enjoying the light.
