Bright and Airy Wedding Photographer

What Does it Mean to be a Bright and Airy Wedding Photographer?

Being a Bright and Airy wedding photographer is more than just a “shooting style”.  It’s also an editing style.  Consider it also a “mood”.  I love this style because it promotes cheeriness and happiness!  It’s also classic and will not go out of style.

Bright and Airy (and Light and Airy) is referring to photography that is the opposite of “Dark and Moody”.   And below are a few of the common characteristics that you can expect from a Light and Airy Photographer.

Characteristics of a Bright and Airy Wedding Photo:

  • Colors in the photos tend to lean more Pastel.
  • It’s shot in Natural Light
  • It often will be “less colorful”, by incorporating a more subtle color pallet.
  • Skys and Landscapes will not be as dramatic.

Here is a nice example of a Light and Airy photo taken by K. Lenox Photography

Being a bright and airy wedding photographer means that it’s crucial that we shoot in a certain way that allows us to hone in this beautiful style.   So the best time to shoot this way is early morning before just after the sun rises… and about an hour before sunset.   These times are when the light is softest and most flattering.   We also tend to shoot “wide open” which allows for us to achieve those creamy blurred out backdrops.

Wedding at the Colony Hotel in Kennebunkport

If you are looking for a beautiful luxury hotel on the beach in Kennebunkport for your Wedding,  then the Colony Hotel may be a good fit!   Having your Wedding at the Colony Hotel gives you a beautiful ceremony overlooking the ocean,  as well as an elegant ballroom to have the reception.

Weddings at the Colony Hotel are Amazing!  Being an ocean lover myself,  I’m a sucker for venues with views of the fantastic waves crashing along the shore.   But what makes me love being a New England Wedding photographer isn’t just the venues.  It’s the awesome couples I get to work with.  This couple was no different.   They are amazing! Kate and Mike’s Wedding was stunning! And I have here a few of their Light and Airy Wedding Photos to show you!!

These guys are a down-to-earth couple who envisioned having a laid back,  yet classy Wedding.   They certainly fulfilled their vision, surrounded by friends and family they love most!!

LakeFalls Lodge – New Hampshire Wedding Venue

If you want a beautiful venue… with lots of options,  then LakeFalls Lodge is one to consider!  Being a wedding photographer,  I get to see many venues, but I have to admit.  LakeFalls Lodge is one of my favorites

The property has 250 acres of pristine land,  a beautiful lake (with a waterfall), and several lodging choices right on site.   Most couples book the venue for the entire weekend.  This allows the wedding party and immediate family to stay right on location.   The rest of your guests can be bussed in from the local City of Keene.  (Only 15 minutes away)

The owner of the property is always on hand to help with setups and questions.  There is even an option to add on an exciting Fireworks display at the end of the evening as well!

Although Lindsay and Tyler had their wedding in New Hampshire,  they opted to have a Mediterranean Style theme!   They decorated the ceremony location with an abundance of flowers.  For the Tent Reception,  they added lots of Yellows and lemons to bring in the ‘feels.’     I love being a Wedding Photographer because even though I’m located here… I get to travel all over to photograph amazing people and their incredible stories.

This wedding was also published on The Knot!

GrandView Estates – New England Wedding Venue

I absolutely LOVE being a New England Wedding Photographer!  For starters,  we get to enjoy the beauty that all four seasons provide.   While, admittedly so, I’m more of a summer girl- I do admit that each season has its own beautiful characteristics.    And here I have a fall wedding that I photographed at the GrandView Estates in Jaffrey NH.

The GrandView Estates is a premier New England Wedding Venue, where I get to photograph frequently.   It offers a wonderfully quaint onsite Bed & Breakfast, along with a pavilion for weddings to happen even during poor weather.   Additionally it has the most breathtaking view of Mt.  Monadnock.  (Which just so happens to be the world’s 2nd most climbed mountain.   Mt. Fuji is the first!) 

Fall Weddings in NH are beautiful for so many reasons.   As you may know,  New England is known for its colorful foliage.  And the weather tends to be pretty mild as well- making it the perfect time of year to have a wedding.   This couple though didn’t have the traditional fall colors.  They infused nice, light and airy pastels into their theme which balanced perfectly with the otherwise known ‘burnt-like’ colors of autumn.

This wedding was purely DIY.  They did everything themselves.  (Aside from the cooking! ha)   All the decor, even the flowers were all done by the loved ones of the couple.   The Arbor, the signage and the tablescapes were all hand-crafted by the couple.    So I encourage you to take a peek!   Be sure to check out the full blog post:  Marielle + Tim’s Fall Wedding At the Grandview Estates.

I may be a New England Wedding Photographer,  but I do travel all over to photograph weddings.    Please be sure to get in touch if you are interested in having beautiful Light and Airy photographs telling your story!!

Alyson’s Orchard Wedding – New Hampshire

Weddings at Alyson’s Orchard are always so pristine and beautiful.   The venue itself offers so much in variety when it comes to your wedding portraits.   From the various ponds- dirt paths or even in the orchard itself- there is always a beautiful photo opportunity waiting for a bride and groom on their wedding day.

There are 5 Ceremony locations you can choose from when you have your wedding at Alyson’s Orchard.    This wedding took place at Sarma’s Pond, which offers a beautiful view of the rolling hills of Walpole.   You can view the orchard, pond and so many natural elements that do make your wedding ceremony so much more memorable.   There is even a Finnish Sauna that sits right on the edge of the pond!

The photos have my exclusive Light and Airy style.  Enjoy!
