The traditional wedding was spiced up pieces other cultures. The afternoon started with a ceremonial “buying” of the bride. The price was a song. The Mayfair Hotel felt like an outdoor venue with huge skylights and bamboo and leaves growing out of every corner. As the ceremony started we could hear the patter of rain on the roof but remained dry and serene. The party started early and lasted into the night and included the groom break-dancing with the groomsmen. The bright and airy Mayfair Hotel and Spa in Miami Florida made an ideal venue for the ceremony.

Lauren and Mark’s wedding was photographed by Edward Linsmier at the beautiful mansion of the Director of the Miami City Ballet, Edward Villella in Miami Beach. It would be a challenging venue to book but it is one of our favorites.

David Degner photographed the wedding of Beth & Will in Rockville Maryland, just outside of Washington D.C.
Glenview Mansion made a scenic setting for the Scottish themed wedding. The a pillared, neoclassical, 19th century home, is an ideal venue nestled in the Rockville Civic Center Park.
This wedding was special for us to photograph because the bride wanted the pictures taken on black and white film to give it a more traditional look. I used a Leica M6 and Neopan 400 film.
Back in the lab it took another 100+ hours of post processing and printing on fiber based paper to get the final product. In the end the bride had a very unique wedding album of gorgeous archival prints, and the scanned hand-toned digital files to send to family and friends.
Black and white photography gives unique images but it also creates truly archival images that many future generations will be able to look at. There is an odd paradox with photo technology that the newer technologies have shorter lifespans.
