There is a delicate balance between planning your event around the timing of your photos and planning the photography around the timeline of your event. After all, it’s not about the photography. It’s about having all of your friends and family together to celebrate love and life. That is the priority. How do you plan your day accordingly?

Providence Public Library is a historic landmark in Providence, Rhode Island. The interior is romantic, spacious and beautiful. Creatively, a photographer couldn’t have a bad backdrop if we tried!

A recent post focused on the personal value of a wedding, event or family album. Now I’m excited to write about one of my favorite photo subjects, and one that is often overlooked: PAPER.

Times have changed over the 18 years I have been a wedding and event photographer. For a long time, the majority of my clients would expect an album – and often one for the parents and/or family members. Although the majority of my clients still feel the same, it’s no longer a given. So what’s changed? Based on my experience, I’d like to share what I believe are among the factors for this fairly recent shift and also to discuss when and why I believe wedding and event albums are important.

I want to thank Bliss Celebrations for this Vendor Spotlight on my business! 

My mom and I went together to the Boston Women's March For America. How awesome it was to experience history in the making on such a large scale. Top that off with the company of my own mom. A great day indeed.

PART 1 | Rosecliff, Newport, Rhode Island
Rosecliff in Newport is one of my favorite wedding and event venues to photograph in Rhode Island. I’d compare the light and environment of Rosecliff to a thumbprint: no two days are alike, which is inspiring.
