A slightly surreal image from a recent engagement photo session - the couple, Shannon and Peter, played with the idea of not just walking across the reflecting pool at Skylands Manor (Ringwood, NJ), but levitating across ..
.. and this gave me the idea for a theme for this post – jumping shots. Bridal parties and couples who jump. Some may think it cliched, but I love it when a bridal party has energy and is excited and willing to play around. Anything to break it up from that ‘usual suspects’ kind of line-up. Exuberance and excitement goes a long way to making the photography on a wedding day interesting.
The next image is from a recent wedding in Manhattan, where I shot with the hugely talented photographer, Monika Broz. The bridal party was unstoppable!
… and another wedding which I had the pleasure to photograph, with an enthusiastic bridal party.
.
And who wouldn’t have boundless energy on a beach, especially when on a destination wedding in the Bahamas?
During their engagement session, Stephanie, the bride-to-be, jumped with such enthusiasm that a shoe went flying!
I just know a wedding will be fun to photograph when you have a bride like Kristen, just leaping into her groom’s arms.
