About our blog

People say to me all the time: “You're so lucky. You get to go to weddings all the time." They're right. We are lucky. We get to be among people having a great time, looking and feeling their best and participating in what is often the most important day in someone's life.

Here’s the other thing we are lucky to see: the terrific style and creativity that our clients bring to their celebrations. If there is one thing we’ve learned while photographing weddings, it is that a wedding doesn’t have to be expensive to be lovely. We dedicate our blog to sharing the terrific ideas that we’ve seen before and will see this coming season, with a focus on ideas that are simple, elegant and stylish.

All these images are the work of us or our associate photographers from events we've photographed. So, we say "thank you" to our clients who have shared their warmth and happiness with us. 


About John & Theresa Valls

Because we love to travel, we photographed our first wedding together in exchange for two plane tickets to Europe. That was our original plan: we'd photograph a wedding or two, basically just enough to underwrite our love of italian food eaten in Italy. What we hadn't counted on, however, was how much we would grow to love everything about shooting and working together.

John's wedding photography is influenced by his advertising work with agencies, companies and magazines he shoots for. Avoiding an overly-produced style for his photos, John's images reflect his light touch as well as his ability to capture what is descriptive, yet beautiful.

My background in design management helps us create wedding albums that are both contemporary and timeless. I'm an avid believer in the strength of a killer edit, so I work with our clients to compile a photo selection that will meaningful and satisfying 25 years in the future. 

 

“Snow on the mountain…”

Clear unscented gel antiperspirant …Used to be a discrete phrase that one woman would say to another when she didn’t apply her lipstick completely. Since no one says that anymore, I think we should now repurpose that phrase to describe what happens to wedding party men after numerous hugs from wedding party women. B-maid’s and bride’s stick-based antiperspirants/deodorants  (which, of course, everyone loads up on) leave powdery, white smudges all over the shoulders of the guys’ dark suits.  And it’s doesn’t just brush off.  Whenever we’re editing pics from the post-recessional hugs, we always see lots and lots of “snow on the mountain”.

So, do the guys a favor and bring a couple of these to the gals getting-ready room. Besides being a clear, unscented gel, I’ve found this Dry Idea unscented product to be pretty effective. And won’t leave “snow on the mountains” for the wedding party guys.
