The Wedding Dress Shot

I push myself for creative ways in photographing the wedding details. The wedding dress is an item that a bride spends endless amounts of time searching for, trying on, and posing in. I typically survey the surroundings of the wedding ceremony location and then develop an idea of a picture I have for the wedding dress. In a recent wedding there were not any real window locations close so I searched high and low for another location. Luckily for me the bride was no where to be found and did not see where I took her lovely dress - because if she did I might not have been able to photograph her beautiful dress in this location.
With the help of editing I was able to emphasize the textures involved in this church basement location. I was caught by the church pianist as I was scouting this location, I told her I loved this door. She looked at me like I was out of my mind and said yes it is old.
Here is the end result:

I am soooo sorry.

Dear Blog,
I am so very sorry for neglecting you. There is no excuse for not spending more time with you and showing you a little love. There have been many times I wanted to blog with you but I have been busy. Please forgive me blog for neglecting to post with you. I have been busy with weddings and swamped with photographing beautiful couples on their special day.
I promise to spend more time with you and will show you much love with new and exciting posts. Thanks for always being there and sticking with me.
Love Always!
Scott

Baby Photography by Scott Statson

I have not photographed many babies but thought I would take another crack at it and incorporate the same locations that I would take brides for bridal photos or other "adults".  This little beauty is an extremely well behaved seven month old from Grand Blanc Michigan.  She was a joy to work with and the results of the baby photo shoot were beautiful.  Above it one of my favorites - there are lot more but I am saving them to show the parents.
If you have a young one (or group of them), let's talk and take advantage of the beautiful weather for outdoor family photos.
