In the past months we’ve photographed a lot of weddings. I’m amazed by the body of work we’re amassing. The other day I was looking back through our wedding season and thinking of how much I love the people we get to work with and how lucky we are. Wedding season just ended and for about a week, I felt relieved to have a break. Now all I feel is the desire to get back at it!

Obviously I could look at my work all day long and think about what I could do better — and I do do that sometimes. Who doesn’t? But let’s focus on the positive. Here are a few of the photos that we took recently that I’m borderline obsessed with. Actually, not borderline, completely obsessed with. I want to shoot more like this. It’s easy to look at other photographers and compare. I get down on myself a lot when I start to think, “I’ll never be able to take as great of photos as Insert Big Name Wedding Photographer Here.” But these are photos that make me feel proud.

And speaking of Seba, even though we weren’t, a lot of people ask me how many of the pictures are mine and how many are his. In both this post and the next one I’m doing, out of all my favorites, I noted which ones were taken by Seba. Everybody always wants to know who the talent is of the two. But looking back through our work, it’s pretty even what we use in the portfolio. About half of these are his and half are mine. We work well together.

Boys getting ready faves (all by Seba except the first):

Detail faves:

First killer shoe shot by Seba. He is WAY better at the small details than me. I rock the dress shots though

Shoe shot again by Seba!

Next ring shot and shoe shot by Seba again. He killed that ring shot, I love it.
