The Couple: Rebecca and Jack’s Love Story
From the moment we met Rebecca and Jack, it was clear their love story was one for the ages. Their warmth, humor, and elegance made them a joy to work with. Rebecca’s stunning gown from Castle Couture and her dazzling headpiece from Bridal Styles Boutique added a touch of old-Hollywood glamour, perfectly complementing Jack’s classic black-tie attire.
Their connection shone through in every frame—from their emotional first look to their laughter-filled reception. Whether they were sharing a quiet moment on the hotel’s iconic staircase or dancing under sparkling lights, their love was palpable.
Capturing the Magic: Plaza Hotel Wedding Photography Techniques
Photographing a wedding at The Plaza requires a balance of photojournalistic spontaneity and editorial artistry. Our goal was to highlight the couple’s love while showcasing the venue’s grandeur. We used natural light streaming through the windows for soft, romantic portraits and incorporated the ballroom’s glittering chandeliers for dramatic evening shots.
Off-camera flash techniques were used to enhance the vibrancy of the couple’s first dance and reception moments, while the subtle use of black-and-white photography added a timeless quality to key images. These approaches ensured that Rebecca and Jack’s wedding gallery captured both the intimate emotions and the grandeur of their day.
