It's important for a wedding photographer to be as efficient as possible with time management as well as taking advantage of the available surroundings. In this case, I wanted to get a dramatic portrait of the bride and groom before they entered the reception, something different than the church photos. We didn't have time to go anywhere else so I had to make do with the hallway in the hotel! I'm really pleased with how this turned out.

The bride was running late and so her hair and makeup preparation was very rushed. Once she was dressed we only had a few moments before we had to hurry downstairs for the start of the ceremony. I always try to get a creative portrait of the bride whenever possible and I was very pleased with how this one turned out considering the extreme shortage of time. Many times a bride will apologize for all the craziness before the wedding. I always tell them I'm used to it and that a certain amount of craziness is normal for a wedding day!

This week's blog post really continues the previous discussion about the importance of capturing the details that make a wedding unique. I really love the vibrant colors in this photo and the beautifully soft natural light.
