Wedding Photography

As a photographer, one of the most important events that you can cover is a wedding. This day has been planned for months, years, sometimes longer! Photography is one of the considerations that brides and grooms have to decide about early on. There are so many photography choices around, and in the the DC Area, so many GOOD ones.

How do you choose which photographer to cover your wedding?

The first thing I would do is to go visit many photographer websites in the area which you are planning of having your ceremony and/or reception. The internet allows you to see their work – do you like their style? There are photojournalist style photographers that capture incredible candid moments throughout your day. There are also photographers that can pose, and position your family and friends perfectly for staged portraits. See what the differences are, and which you envision your photos to look in an album. Do you like how they edit and process photos? The images they show can look vintage with Intstagram-like effects, some have bright saturated colors, and some are excellent with producing black and  white photos. When you decide on a few, and contact them, it is  most important to see if you like their personality. You will have to spend one of your most stressful days with this person, and see them for more time than your new spouse. It is imperative that you trust what they are saying, and that they have the experience and confidence to get you photos that you need on time so that you do not miss any important events that you have planned.

It is just after the holidays, and if you are looking for a wedding photographer, please take a look at my website http://www.timelinedc.com and the other entries on my blog. I have examples of how I like images to look from a wedding. I go for a punchy but realisitic look to my images. Candids, and capturing action are my specialty as you can probably see from my ballroom dance images. This helps during weddings are there is so much going on – lots of families, lots of little interactions between family and friends, that I try to capture. If these are things you are looking from a photographer, give me a call 703-864-8208 or email [ rassi at timelinedc.com ]! I can show you examples of albums, and other wedding images I have captured. I have experience with venues, and other vendors in the area, so I can help if you are starting your planning and need help with them as well.

Leah & CJ – Newport News, VA Wedding photography

Leah and CJ had a beautiful late August wedding with family and friends gathering by the banks of the James River for a lovely wedding ceremony. CJ is a colleague from my former career as a lab technician. In the lab, you could always count on CJ to get things done correctly, on time, whenever you asked with the rest of the team following his lead. Because of that, I really wanted to get the best images for him and his bride after they decided to have me produce their wedding photography!

With the help of Jenn Kelley, I think we were able to capture some especially great wedding photography from beginning to end of Leah and CJ’s day. They had lots of time for pre-wedding portraits. During the ceremony, they had a little breeze. Finally, they had a full dance floor the rest of the night. Congratulations you two! I hope we get the chance to see you again – probably at a Redskins game or three 🙂 Enjoy your photos!

Wedding photography is a privilege whenever a couple selects you for the responsibility. For this reason, I work as hard as I can to get images that a wedding couple would enjoy looking at and sharing for years to come.

Engagement photos

Engagement Photos with Leah and CJ in Newport News, Virginia

CJ and Leah are going to be married this August, and we got together to get some engagement photos of the two of them. It was very hot and sunny in Newport News, VA, but they gladly worked through posts for me. They told me about how CJ proposed, and their plans for the wedding day.

They are well-prepared and are planning for a fun time with family and friends. We were able to get some shots with their dogs as well, and they cooperated for a few snaps!  At this time, they picked area by the Mariner’s Museum Park. Although it was very close to a busy part of time, this was a nice oasis next to the lake. Leah I met only recently. However, CJ has been a work friend for a few years. Now that we both have moved on to new career paths, it was nice to see him doing so well!

Thanks for having me down for the day, and I looked forward to your wedding later this summer!
