I shot Jessica & Jeff’s wedding in Delaware last year and one of the things I love is meeting up with my clients when they have their first child. For this session I was brought down to Jersey shore a few days before the hurricane hit a few weeks ago. I met up with their family and spent the day photographing their beautiful son.

It’s always nice to get out of the studio every now and then to photograph newborns especially when I get to sit on the beach for a few days when I’m done.

I decided before my son was born that I wouldn’t follow him around with a camera all day his entire life. Trust me that’s been a struggle to keep over the last 13 weeks but this weekend I decided to pull it out for a few minutes and take some pictures of him around the house.

Indie loves bath time or as we affectionately call it “Tubsies”

I can’t tell you how much I love this kid. We actually have a friend who calls him her sunshine baby because he is rarely seen without a smile on his face.

Maura & John rocked their E session yesterday like carrots and pees. It was actually raining when we started their session so we had to sit around in the car and chat a bit before we headed out. Seems like they know just about every couple I have worked with this year.

Kinda funny to chat it up about some of my clients these guys went to high school with.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Nailed it like a Rockstar.

 

 

 

You may need to wait for this next shot to load but it’s evidence that this session is a wrap.

Samara & Brian were married down in Philadelphia last year and I thought I would throw up a few quick pictures that didn’t make it into an album. I’m a believer that every wedding is different so no two of my weddings will ever look exactly alike. I love the fact that their child was so very important to them on this day so we really made sure to reflect that in how this wedding was captured. I remember really feeling like we were part of the family at this wedding. It was one of the more relaxing weekends we spent working last year.

Lyndsay & Ethan were married at the Winterthur Museum in Wilmington Delaware earlier this year and as I was putting the finishing touches on their images I felt I should put together a blog post as it’s been weeks since I posted a wedding on my blog. Now that wedding season is over I can get caught up on posting some of the weddings we have photographed this year.

We here at Darkershadesofbrown Photography have been talking about this for a few weeks on twitter and facebook and have created a bit of a stir so today I wanted to let everyone know that that we are officially launching our iPad Wedding albums. Ever since I had my eyes on this amazing device I have been thinking of ways to get them into my customers’ hands. So much is changing in how we display our images to our friends and family over the last few years and I can’t tell you how many requests I have received about how to best have images available for things like facebook and personal wedding blogs that people have created for their wedding.

After much thought I think we finally came up with an answer…

The Apple iPad will give you the freedom to personally show your friends all those wedding images you find in your wedding gallery….

Have you ever wanted to:

Create your own slide-shows and load your own music from your itunes account?

Get your images on Facebook?

Show your friends your images without having to bring them over to your house and open up your album?

Something tells me you have and now you can and with the purchase of this album option we will give you a one hour tour with your new device and show you the best way to do all of those things

Does this mean we are getting rid of our albums? Not at all, but we want to give you that additional option and provide a solution to that question you have asked us about displaying images digitally.

For more information about how you can get this option added to your wedding package as well as a demo of how it all works you can give us a call or email us at Dlanton@Darkershadesofbrown.com

Sometimes I wish I had more time to spend putting up some of the more amazing wedding vendors I have worked with this past year. Some of the stuff going on in the industry right now is just pretty much a plate full of awesome. A few weeks ago I emailed
Caroline Colóm Vásquez of Paloma’s Nest and asked if I could throw some blog love her way. From a photographers perspective or at least this photographers perspective weddings are all about the little details. The more eye candy I have to get my camera lost in the better. Last year Kristy Rice from Momental Designs introduced me to her work when we all collaborated on a tablescape session and I have fallen in love with Carolin’s work ever since.

Be sure to check out her shop here and her amazing blog here.


Brides…. Get on over and check out her work. I would love to see some of these deigns in some photographs this year.

Alissa & Jeff were married last week at the Montdale Country Club in Jermyn PA and both of them brought some serious energy with them just about all day. I felt like I was running a marathon chasing these two around the Scranton area as their day unfolded. Both of them has such a great spirit about them and kept me laughing all day at how crazy fun they made their wedding day. I really enjoyed being a part of their day from start to finish.

Bridal Guitar Hero rocked my sox off.

LOVE!

To the cleaners FTW! I love this picture.

May the festivities begin.

DJ in the photobooth

WIN!

Hope you guys are rockin the honeymoon.
