"This wedding was unique in that I had shot two of the bride's best friends' weddings, so I had gotten to know the couple. Niki and Tony are the life of every party, so a big reason these photos are so fun is because they are so fun. But I also talked to Niki a lot about the art direction before the day and they were down for any idea I pitched."
"I'm also buds with the wedding planner [Sam of Marriage and Mimosas], so it felt really collaborative. The energy is all them, though. I had the same amount of portrait time I have for any other couple on a wedding day, but they were really willing to get weird and trust me. In a nutshell, our weirdness perfectly overlapped and we had a bunch of fun! Definitely one of my favorite [weddings] of all time."
Photographer had previously shot two of the bride's best friends' weddings and therefore knew the couple well. Niki and Tony brought high-energy, party-centric personalities that made photographs lively and fun. Extensive pre-wedding art-direction talks with Niki covered ideas from the dance floor to the backdrop and even the use of funky expired film. The photographer collaborated closely with planner Sam of Marriage and Mimosas, creating a collaborative atmosphere. Portrait time matched any other wedding, but the couple’s willingness to be playful and trust the photographer enabled unconventional, 'weird' shots. The overlapping creative sensibilities resulted in an especially enjoyable, memorable wedding shoot.
