Flying tomorrow to Telluride, Colorado. I will photograph an unusual wedding there this week. It will involve a helicopter – skiing escapades. I asked the groom, Todd to describe the plans for me and he said: “Anita, we have 4 helicopters reserved for this. The scene will be similar to Coppola’s film “Apocalypse Now”… All right then. I have been packing my bags tonite to be there on time.
This is an image I made literally on the way out from a great wedding I photographed long time ago ( film wedding). Using it for today’s New Year’s Eve post. Happy New Year everyone! Let it be a fantastic year with hands on everything that The World brings to us! Anita.
I have been looking through old albums of mine – my photography from years ago when film was the only way. Much has changed since the T- Max days ( my fave film). Sometimes I go back and revisit in my mind how precise the film photography had to be. Precise with composition, the energy of the subject and the light. Not paying attention was costly. It could easily turn into many rolls of film and big $ numbers at the lab. My commercial photography is created digitally 100% as of now but I am glad that my first training in photography was with film. I am still careful how I make my exposures, even though digitally.
Sandra and Peter’s wedding. Marysville, near Seattle. Seems like so many years ago. Ron Henry was the main photographer. I was just “covering” his back…
The rain has never let up on this Halloween weekend in Seattle. In fact, if you looked outside the window and wished for less of it, it would rain harder. When I began Alexis and Stephen’s Victorian wedding photography on Saturday afternoon, I wished for clear skies at first, but then with every photo made, I realized that the heavy rain, milky fog hanging in the air was the best nature’s gift for the theme of their wedding. It added more character to it, enhanced the atmosphere and the dark spirit of the Halloween weekend. Top hats, fans, parasols, corsets, details and creativity all around! This was photographer’s dream to capture. And yes, my cameras were rained on, but without the rain, the images would have not looked the same: Gothic- like and intense. Alexis and Stephen got married at Parsons Garden (the “secret garden that isn’t quite so secret”), Queen Anne, Seattle. Reception took place at the Columbia Tower. Flowers: Aria Style.
