A Softer Image

Beth and Ben were a superb couple to work with. They chose to switch it up with the order of events at their wedding - the evening began with a cocktail hour, which led to a star show, all in the Fels Planetarium in Philadelphia. As the lights came up after the star show had […]

Going into Tiffany and Chad’s wedding, I knew there would be a lot of DIY details to capture, so Jen came prepared with her Macro lens and took some amazing photos. It’s clear how much hard work went into each of these items, and it payed off - they truly sculpted a wedding that reflected […]

Yes, we do a lot of nontraditional weddings, but the below shows […]

After a frustrating evening spent at a Verizon Wireless store, the following has been cemented in my mind: get it all spelled out. This is a theory that I apply to all of the A Softer Image contracts, which protects both the photographer and the couple. Should a client want more explanation about an article […]

I saw an article on Weddingbee.com called Kill the Shot List. The photographer who wrote the article lamented situations in which couples supplied a full-blown list of must-take shots, which in turn limited her ability to be artistic and photojournalistic.
