Real Weddings | Campinas Brazil Wedding Photographer | Rejane Wolff Fotografia | Celícia and João

Joe Milton — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 11:35:40 +0000

Wedding Photographer: Rejane Wolff Fotografia, Campinas, Brazil wedding photographer
Real Wedding Date: January 9, 2010
Client Names: Celícia and João
Ceremony Location: Santo Antônio Church

Wedding Description
Celícia and John Mauro: The No-Energy Wedding!

No, we are not talking about the energy that refers to excitement, enthusiasm, and thrills. We are talking about electrical energy!

During the making of, everything happened as usual: the bride’s anxiety and expectancy, the beautiful wedding dress on the hanger, the flurry of activity with friends and sisters-in-law… Once we left the beauty salon, our adventure began!

On our way there we realized that the street lights were off and we soon found out that the church had run out of electricity. We got to the church and we thought that the power would soon be restored, but fifteen, twenty, and then forty minutes went by and the church remained powerless. Celícia decided to make her entrance in the dark church, a very wise decision!

We were fearful that the pictures would turn out poorly because it was so dark. We could not even use the manual focus, because we couldn’t see if we were focusing correctly through the camera’s viewfinder. So we talked to the wedding planner and explained that we would do our best!

The lighting available was 10 candles, an improvisation by the people from the church. Outside the church there was a little bit of light, but inside it was pretty dark.

What saved us? It was our shameless attitude and a small LED lamp that works with a battery, which we hardly use because we like to use natural light as much as possible. The man you see in the photo holding the LED lamp was our hero. He was one of the guests who were sitting on the front row; he sympathized with our concern about taking pictures in the dark and decided to help us. So he held the LED lamp for us!

We could have edited the picture on the computer to take out the “LED lamp man,” but we would be hiding a very relevant fact on the most important day for that couple. We are certain that they will remember that part of the story for the rest of their lives and will laugh a lot with everything that happened!

In the end we thought that it was very different and quite romantic, and, most importantly, the newlyweds loved the result! What really matters in a wedding are the bride and the groom’s emotions. They did an excellent job not letting the stress take over the small details!

The ceremony was beautiful and very moving. When we were taking the pictures outside, before the bride and the groom came into the party, we realized that there was the main electricity company’s building right in front of the party house. We went there and took a picture in order to laugh a little bit.

Wedding Description
From the Bride & Groom:

The day went so smoothly, and I have the most supportive family & friends to thank for all of it. I honestly have to say that I picked the most superb professionals to perform at the wedding; photographer, band , D.J., the chef…it was perfect.

The pictures Jeff took captured the day in all of its beauty, especially the ones of the beautiful nature that is so abundantly preserved at Skytop and throughout the Pocono Mountains. In retrospect, I wouldn’t have changed a thing, and that leaves many happy and cherished memories with Nick and I, and all of our wonderful families and guests.

On a personal photographers note…I have been in several weddings over the last 3 years, and Jeff is hands down the most easy going, talented photographer that I have seen. He isn’t pushy and has much respect for his clients and their integrity in capturing the character of each person.

Thank you Jeff!

A muslim pre-wedding Mendhi (henna party).

The Mehndi is the event where you put henna on the bride’s and groom’s hands. Marked by traditional songs and dances, it sometimes extends to two days – one day over at the groom’s place to put henna on his hand and the second day over at the bride’s house to put henna on hers. It is a very colourful and vibrant event. Its a very good place to know the family just before the wedding day.

Real Weddings | Scranton, PA Wedding Photographer Jeff Dietz | Huntsville Golf Club | Mike and Jane

Joe Milton — Fri, 12 Feb 2010 21:36:18 +0000

Wedding Photographer: Jeff Dietz Photography, Scranton, Pennsylvania wedding photographer
Real Wedding Date: October 10, 2009
Client Names: Mike and Jane
Ceremony and Reception Location: Hunstville Golf Club, Huntsville Pennsylvania
Wedding Dress: Oleg Cassini gown from David’s Bridal
Tuxedos : Men’s Wearhouse
Shoes: Nina’s
Band: New York Times Band

Wedding Description
What an amazing couple, Jane and Mike. I had the pleasure of first photographing Jane’s brother’s wedding in January of 2009, and now the honor to photograph her wedding as well. The wedding took place at the Huntsville Golf Club in Hunstville, PA just minutes from the Penn State Wilkes Barre campus.

It started off as a very rain cloud day, but about 30 minutes before the ceremony the sky opened up making for some amazing backdrops for this outdoor ceremony on the golf course. Mike was a golf pro for the Huntsville Golf Club, so it was a perfect place for his wedding.

These wedding images are a nice mix of my photojournalism style and my creative fashion portraits.

The New York Times band played throughout the reception making it a lovely night under the tent. I look forward to also having the chance to photograph Jane’s other brother’s wedding in Germany! The fact that I have photographed the wedding of all their family members so far speaks volumes to how much our couples love what we do!

Real Weddings | Malaysia Wedding Photographer William Goh | Mandarin Oriental Hotel Singapore | Jerome and Gloria

Joe Milton — Wed, 10 Feb 2010 08:13:17 +0000

Client Names: Jerome and Gloria
Real Wedding Date: January 16, 2010
Ceremony and Reception Location: Mandarin Oriental Hotel, Singapore
Wedding Photographer: William Goh, My Wedding Photographer Studio / FOTOMALAYSIA, Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia wedding photographer

Wedding Description
It has been years since I last shot a wedding in Singapore and this couple, Jerome & Gloria, will be the first for this year. Jerome has high confidence in my work and he paid me an early visit in Malaysia last year to engage my photography services. Jerome is a Singaporean and Gloria is from Macau (the only legalized city next to China for casinos just like Las Vegas).

The day started well with a “snail” just coming out from the Mandarin Oriental Hotel (Singapore) main entrance at 7am. See the 2nd image below. Funny isn’t it? After the make-up session, it was the church wedding ceremony and all went smoothly and I managed to get the couple to take things easy. I have to give a 7-Star service to the Mandarin Oriental Hotel front desk staff including the function room staff for making the day go so smoothly. Kudos to them for making Jerome & Gloria’s wedding luncheon a memorable one.

They had live music for the luncheon and it was great! It was totally unplugged and the female singer’s voice was amazing! The atmosphere of the wedding was great and we were served with amazing food from the hotel!

A week after the wedding, here’s Gloria’s comment which she posted to me on my Facebook : “Really want to thank you for those beautiful pics you’ve taken. They are absolutley fantastic!”

Yeah… I’m thinking what you’re thinking. The “snail” was just checking out from the hotel.

The backdrop seen here is the Singapore city landscape which can be seen from the bridal suite window at the hotel.

Here’s the groom’s entourage – 2 red Ferraris costing SGD 1 million (approx USD 710k) each.

Magnificient interior artichitecture of the hotel.

Nice and cozy reception room with a small stage for live music.

Real Weddings | Malaysia Wedding Photographer William Goh | Crystal Crown Hotel | Ramesh and Hema

Joe Milton — Sun, 24 Jan 2010 11:04:02 +0000

Client Names: Ramesh and Hema
Real Wedding Date: December 11-12, 2009
Ceremony and Reception Location: Crystal Crown Hotel, Klang, Selangor, Malaysia
Wedding Photographer: William Goh, My Wedding Photographer Studio / FOTOMALAYSIA, Petaling Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia wedding photographer

Wedding Description
I have always had fun capturing traditional Indian wedding photography because it is so challenging. For this wedding I was totally focused on every movement they had on the stage.

The bride started her make-up session at 2AM (that is 2 o’clock in the morning). Who shoots a make-up session that early in the morning? Gosh! I was pretty surprised when I was told I was required to be at her house by that time and the wedding ceremony at the Hindu temple started at 4.30AM!

It was truly amazing when I saw the finished work I took, I believe the mood of the whole wedding was nicely captured. I would really like to thank Ramesh & Hema for the opportunity to capture the most memorable day of their lives.
