this was a wild, wacky, + wonderful wedding that took place in downtown lowell ma in the autumn of 2019, pre covid-19 + wedding restrictions. it did not have a ton of those traditional wedding elements where i include a long list of all the amazing vendors that i worked with but it did have tons of personality. abby, being a designer really wanted to capture their personalities with a casual, vibrant event. their ceremony was short + sweet + left plenty of time for festive dancing + board game playing. this was my first time ever photographing a reception in a windowless black walled basement room in a mill building. it did not disappoint. but i am glad that we scheduled some time before the ceremony to get some natural gritty downtown lowell light.
i am not big on resolutions but for some reason this year i wanted to challenge myself to take one photograph a day. i don’t want to stress over technical aspects, i just want to create/capture my everyday life. i am using my ‘travel camera’ a panasonic lumix with a leica lens. i don’t recommend it. i have been using it to shoot raw in manual mode + this thing is not very intuitive. maybe i am just an old dog who can’t learn new tricks but i feel using it will make me appreciate my symbiotic relationship with my trusty nikon system. + possibly make me hone in more on content + composition. so here is my first week of 2021 in a pic a day
a ways back…a friend reached out to me to help give them some imagery for an upcoming album they were about to release. it was a vague concept with descriptive words such as bright/green/kind of hazy…so with carte blanche this is what i came up with. if you want to check out the tunes that go with this type of jello kryptonite imagery click here
