What does a second photographer do?
A second photographer provides more coverage, different angles and additional back up for a wedding. While the main photographer usually starts with the bride getting ready, a second shooter generally starts with the groom. During the ceremony the second shooter will simply capture other angles of the event. While the main photographer is shooting formals the second is shooting cocktail hour and reception details. During the reception the second photographer helps to get table shots and additional candids of the event.
A second photographer is a must for every wedding.

Making the Groom look like a Rockstar
Making the groom look cool?
My goal when shooting the groom and the grooms men is to make the groom look cool. I actually pull ideas from album covers. All the guys want to look cool and all the girls want to look beautiful.
Fall and Winter Timeline
Today one of my brides asked me about her December wedding timeline. She asked if it was ok to plan her beach wedding during sunset. A really great question! As a photographer, I like to figure out lighting and try and plan the wedding and my shots accordingly. The month of December is right smack dab in the middle of the winter solstice, which means days are shorter. During the summer solstice sunset can last for hours, but during the winter they’re very short. Meaning if your heart is set doing a winter sunset wedding you should seriously consider doing all formal photos before the ceremony or not at all. If I could I would make sunsets that last for hours all year long. Another thing to consider is it’s going to be very cold on the beach in December. Finally, if you’re planning to do a December sunset wedding you’re going to have to spend a lot of time make sure your timeline allows for delays. In December the sun sets so fast that if you run behind even a little your ceremony will be in the dark.
