Candid Wedding Photography
The Blog
Candid = Authentic
When you look back on your wedding, my hope is that you’ll remember the special moments, the joy and the celebration; not the time spent posing for and/or being posed by the photographer.
The journal entries on this page will give you a better understanding of what I mean when I say I’m a documentary wedding photographer who shoots primarily candid photos. In speaking with couples over the years, it is almost always the unplanned images that resonate the most, and to which they continually return when they want to revisit their wedding day. Often they weren’t even aware of the photo when it was taken, and that, of course, is the very definition of a candid photo.
I think of my shooting style in a kind of 90/10 rule: 90% of the images will be candid, documentary style shots, and then there will be detail photos of the venue, the flowers, etc, with a handful of gently guided family shots thrown in for good measure if you so choose.
As always, my goal is to create images you’ll cherish for many years to come.

Central Park’s Cop Cot shelter, a gathering of family and friends and a party at the Boro Hotel in Queens make for the perfect documentary wedding photos.
