PNW Beach Wedding

JonaBeth Russell · April 12, 2015

I had the pleasure of capturing this couples' special on-beach wedding / beach-house reception a few weeks ago. These are a few from their album set choices, thought I'd share. They were a fun couple, very animated and super quirky. As always, CC welcomed, and thanks for viewing!

Nice series. Looks like they picked the afternoon for the time to get married. That can be difficult to shoot at the beach.

Thanks, John! You're exactly correct, they chose 3pm for the kickoff of the event. I was grateful for a few clouds in the sky to somewhat limit the zombie faces. lol

Nice images, and more impressive it's all done out of a van!

Different wedding in beach and nice photography. The couple is also looking nice.

Great series, JonaBeth.

#2, the ring shot, is an absolute killer.

I particularly like the framing on #6. Nice bokeh, too. It softens the crowd in the background.

The wind-blown sash in #10 is a classic look. I'd crop that one a little, though; bring the right and bottom in closer to the couple, and cut out some of the blown-out water and sky on the left.

#14 was a great catch, mid-air running. I'd crop that one closer, too.

#19 worked out great, as well. Even with the bokeh, the bride's grin lights up the image.

#20 doesn't get any better, though the couple seems just a smidge underexposed. Maybe lightening them up just a hair's breadth without touching the sky would improve the overall image.

I bet the couple are thrilled with this set.
