We {Gina + Tara} are starting to notice a trend in day after or even months/years after wedding photography. The trends in wedding photography have changed so much even since our weddings 4-5 years ago. We also have to say that the stress level of doing the artistic and creative pictures on a different day then the actual wedding is more relaxing and fun. Many brides and grooms choose to add on a “The Day After” session to their wedding packages to accomplish these kinds of shots in a more relaxed environment.

Natalie of ZuZu’s Petals whipped up the beautiful flowers for the couple. Heather’s parents’ home was the perfect setting for this shoot . . . and Clementine, Heather’s Ford pickup she built with her Dad, was a fabulous prop.

Heather and Josh were so fun to work with and obviously had a sense of humor as well as plenty of romance and love to share. Thank you Heather and Josh for allowing us to recapture your love!

Without further ado, we present the newlyweds,  LINDSEY & SEAN:

And here we have Mr. Sean, in all his handsomeness.  We especially love that he gave a little puppy love before his big day too!

Really, Sean…you are killing us with this…can we say GQ??!

Sean and the best man….having a little bonding moment!

Flower gorgeousness — all compliments of ZuZu’s Petals!  She is our fav!!

And now onto Ms. Lindsey getting beautiful (not like it took much work)!!

JUST GORGEOUS…have we said gorgeous too many times yet?!

And now onto details…we love little details and we really love yellow and green!

The wheatgrass placecard holder concept has to be one of the coolest things we have seen in a long time.  So fresh and clean and inviting.

Onto some great looks.  Not quite sure what Sean was smirking about, but we love it.  And we also love Lindsay’s loving eyes when she is looking at Sean.  So sweet!

Walking back down the aisle, as husband and wife!!!

Hungry anyone?  This picture sure makes us drool.

Another one of our favorites….Lindsay giving her little bro a kiss.  And he really does look to be enjoying it.

Here’s that look again….you know the one….

And they all party into the night, happily ever after!

Thank you Lindsay and Sean for allowing us to capture your beautiful, gorgeous, special day!!!

The business of designing, creating, and providing highly fashionable and custom-made goods and services

Gina+Tara Photography strives to bring couture to the world of wedding photography.

We pride ourselves on a providing the most artistic and beautiful custom photography possible. We believe that the photographs from your wedding day are one of the most important investments of your wedding day.  These photographs will memorialize the events of the day as they unfold — from the details of the amazing gowns, to the precious petals of each bouquet, boutonniere, and centerpiece, to the first glance of the bride by the groom, to the heartfelt vows, to the first kiss, to the toasts, to the first dances, and finally an amazing celebration with family and friends.

We believed partnering was the only way to ensure none of these moments were missed and we work together to capture those little looks, the little smiles, the joyous tears, and the monumental moments that make up a wedding day.

We are so very excited to be able to work together to bring couture wedding photography to the modern couple.  We hope you are too!!!
