When I get ready to photograph your Hawaii wedding, details are so important to be aware of. I send out a questionnaire for you to fill out and ask if there are any special details or circumstances I should be aware of. Maureen let me know that she and Phil were going to bring their parents’ wedding pictures and could I figure out  a way to use them during the day. I had something in mind already since I had some inspiration to look at beforehand.

When I showed up I already knew what I wanted to do with Maureen and Phil’s parents wedding pictures. Having been inspired by some other images I and seen, I wanted to incorporate Phil and his Mother and Maureen and her parents. First I started by just incorporating them in a few detail images such as with the rings just to achieve a few detail ideas. Phil’s father had recently passed away and I had posed them just with the photo and took a few shots I then asked him to think about what a special day it is and how wonderful his mother made the trip to Hawaii and then give her a kiss on the cheek. I love this tender moment between mother and son.

Maureen I took a different approach; I already had done a first look with mom and dad (if I remember correctly there were some tears). After a traditional posing with all of them with the picture, I had Maureen in the foreground and Mom + Dad in background I took a few shots and after I “warmed” them up I asked Dad to give mom a kiss. Well from the reaction Maureen had, I suppose she’s not totally used to the idea of her parents kissing!!! (I probably would have had the same reaction by the way 😉 ). I’ll be posting more from Maureen + Phil’s wedding soon.

Enjoy + Aloha! Jeannemarie

Well hello there and welcome. Starting out my career in NYC as a graphic designer and art director, which had taken me from ice cream and beer to the fashion world, working on some of the top brands. All of which taught me about composition and working under pressure. After a life changing trip, I decided it was time to explore the world and have an adventure. 
I tell you this as it helps me, help you capture your own story with care, creativity and emotion.
