Shadowing Steve

I got the chance to shadow Steve from Patken Photographer at a wedding at the Woodbury Country Club last night. Steve is a great photographer who I am lucky to have photographing my wedding in July. This is the second time I've been able to shadow Steve on a wedding. It's such a great learning experience to see how Steve handles different situations. Steve shoots about 150 weddings a year - so there's really nothing he hasn't seen or can't handle. I consider myself very lucky to be able to have a mentor like him teaching me the trade.

Jennifer & Aaron, February 27th, 2010

I'm just now getting to blog about Jennifer & Aaron's wedding. The wedding took place one day after a huge blizzard in the NY/NJ area - and there were some questions of whether it would even be possible to have the wedding. But Jennifer & Aaron decided to go ahead as scheduled - and they ended up with a beautiful day.
The wedding took place at the Stone House at Stirling Ridge in Warren, New Jersey. This was a new experience for me, since I was working with another photographer for the first time. My friend Brit asked me to shoot with her on this wedding. I agreed, figuring it was going to be a good experience. It was a little unusual for me to work with someone else, and essentially splitting the work. But all in all it was a good experience.
