Kaila & Co.

Last year I had an odd shift in my normal wedding routine.

Where 8-10 hours weddings are my normal, I had an high influx of weddings that were only 2-4 hours.

Was something wrong? Was my algorithm off? Was I giving off too many micro wedding vibes?

Here's what I learned ➡️

Yeah there were smaller overall coverage times, but the focus on portraits was prioritized higher than in my last 10 years.

It made me nervous at first because I wasn't used to doing portraits that long, especially on wedding days, but quickly it became the blueprint for even my longer weddings.

It taught me a more documentary approach to portraits versus a quick 15-30 minute fire round. I found myself craving that time especially on the full wedding days.

Don't get me wrong I love the tradition of long weddings, but I also see the need for time. Time to be you. Time to be alone. Time to take each other in.

And maybe it feels like that can't happen in front of a camera, but I promise, being in front of a camera with the right person can push you into that frame of mind even more than being alone sometimes.

Anyway, enjoy some of the moments from Kellan and Kevin's fall wedding day ❤️
