At the beginning of the new year its always nice to go back and look at what the past year has brought us. While we will be posting in the near future with some of our favorite photographs from 2012, this post is about the past year from the other side of the lens – behind the scenes and outtakes from the past year. It should make for some insight, or at least a few laughs.

The softbox setup we use every now and again when we do something a little different.
Hair check.
Check out Paul’s packing skills. He found the perfect way to transport all our equipment using only one hand to pull the bag behind us while traveling into NYC to photograph Priscilla and Casey in Central Park.
Gaining some height to get that New York City skyline.
Details, details, details.
What a gentleman my guy is.
Testing the light.
Light testing and setting up poses.
Paul’s long lost brothers!
Getting Alicia all primped and perfect before the First Look.
…then hanging back while they enjoy that special time together.
What else to do when standing in for a light test but be silly?
I can’t get enough of those gorgeous details.
Taking a deep breath and helping Noah mentally prepare before seeing his bride for the first time.
Paul crouches for nearly the entire ceremony so as to not distract anyone. Its also a good workout.
Paul and I set up a rain shot for Emily & Noah’s wedding. We did all the prep and setup so they only braved the weather for about a minute.
Oh, I’m sorry were you taking a picture?
Tag team.
I like making sure everything is perfect, especially the gown!
Anything for a picture. Or maybe Paul is just getting in touch with his days as a boyscout?
Bringing in some soft golden light with a reflector.
I got my angle…
… then back peddled out of Pauls!
Paul has a great eye… But this time he did not have to climb anything since there was higher ground on the other side of the wall!
We love showing a few teaser pictures right out the camera as we are taking them.
And the last wedding of the year was a beautiful chilly snowy day! Cannot wait to debut them here soon!! If you cannot wait, check out Ellen & Jon’s preview HERE.
