"Scott is one of the best"......

I received an email today that I was reviewed on the Martha Stewart Weddings website: "Scott is one of the best wedding photographers in the country".  All I can say is thanks!  What a nice compliment!  Wow, sometimes hard work does pay off.  Thanks!

All Stars!



We all love when we work hard and have others thank us for our effort.  I am someone who believes in putting 110% into everything I do.  I am grateful to have clients who take the time to thank me for my efforts.  Here is an example of a recent bride and her thoughts on my wedding photography skills.  :)

Wedding Memories, some good, some not so good.

I tell perspective couples, or brides, not to worry no matter how out of whack the agenda gets.  I will capture photos that will be fantastic.  The majority of brides tell me "noo, my wedding schedule has been well thought out and will go as planned".   I know from much experience that even the best planned schedules tend to get off kilter.  


I had the pleasure of photographing a wedding this weekend.  The weather was calling for "flurries" and warmer (better than 10 degrees) temperatures.  Well, what happened was a blizzard with 6-8 inches of unexpected snow, oops.  I knew the weather was going to be tough so I was at the location an hour before I was scheduled.


The wedding party, and many of the family, were staying at the same hotel.  The hotel was kind enough to shuttle the group to the location.  Unfortunately no one planned on the shuttle limo making a wrong turn and getting hit by a drunk driver.  This was certainly not planned but everyone eventually made it, some after the delayed ceremony.  Definitely a little scary.


The rest of the night went well.  Even with the weather, delays, traffic accident, etc everyone seemed to be having a great time.  We were able to squeeze all of the photos in that the couple wanted.  I managed to get a few creative shots and documented the couple's special day.
The night would have ended great if it were not for an intoxicated guest who fell from the stairs into the fountain of this historic building.  


No matter what happens on your wedding day,  enjoy your time together. Rest assured that I will go with the flow, adapt to the changes, and capture some moments that you will be able to look back on forever.
