I’ve been shooting weddings for 18 years. Before that, I was a professional photojournalist.

If pressed, I could probably eat around 47 tacos.

Skiing is my favorite pastime. We have two seasons here at J. La Plante Photo: wedding season and ski season.

One of my greatest joys in life is cracking open a beer after a long wedding day.

I love to travel. I’ve been to all 50 United States and 20 foreign countries. So far…

Moira and I have been together for 18 years and not a day goes by that I don’t wonder just what in the hell she sees in me.
