Every single photo in this post from Citizens Hose Company wedding are real moments during their day. As a Delaware wedding photographer, one phrase I often use is "capturing memories." It’s a simple statement but holds a deeper meaning when it comes to your big day. Wedding photography is about preserving the emotions, connections, and special moments that unfold naturally. Below you see Keaton fasten his wife's bridal shoe for her after playing the "shoe game." This is such a sweet moment that they may not remember during the hustle and bustle. While I do provide direction (during your engagement session) during your formal wedding portraits, the rest of your day should unfold organically.
When I say "capturing memories," I’m not talking about staging every shot or creating a scripted sequence of events. Instead, it’s about being present in the moment and letting the day unfold naturally. The best wedding photos come from those unplanned, authentic moments—whether it’s the laughter shared between friends, the joyful tears during the vows, or the quiet, intimate exchanges between you and your partner. It is my job as your photographer, to observe and be ready to capture these moments as they happen. I am constantly anticipating where people will be so that I can compose your pictures and provide you with a tell story. Your goal should be to focus on enjoying your wedding day while I work to document it all.
When it comes to formal bridal portraits, I will guide you with prompts. This is an appropriate time when some direction is helpful. I'll provide gentle coaching to ensure you look and feel your best in front of the camera. Whether it's helping you find the most flattering angle or assisting with your pose, my job is to make sure you're comfortable and confident. But even during these moments, I keep things relaxed and natural to allow your true personality to shine through. This is also another reason that I offer complimentary engagement sessions with our wedding packages. Engagement sessions help both love birds comfortable in front of the camera and know what to expect on wedding day.
Your wedding will be about celebration, connection, and emotion. The photos you see in this blog post are prime examples of this approach. Every image here represents organic moments that happened naturally during a real wedding day. From the laughter during toasts to the pure joy on the dance floor, these moments were not directed or staged—they unfolded naturally and were captured in real-time.
