Above + Beyond Wedding Photography for the Modern Couple

Selecting vendors for your wedding day is an exhausting process. As a photographer I do feel every vendor is important. Each couple has their unique set of priorities they bring to the wedding planning process. The difference with photography is, I’m creating your images while your event is happening. You then enjoy those images after the wedding day and beyond. The best gift I can gift you on the wedding day is to be as low key as possible and let you enjoy your big day!

Below is an overview of pricing options. Any collection can be customized to meet your wedding day needs. Please feel free to call or E-mail me for a custom quote. The more I know about your wedding day, the better I can serve you. -Denise Chastain, Owner/Founder 516.823.7315 or 212.332.9695   E-mail: denise@modwedphoto.com.

Engaged Long Island Couples

Most of my clients do not like having their photo taken, but love their wedding photographs. I feel my low-key photographic approach combined with over 20 years experience helps my clients enjoy their wedding day and look their best. 

Below is an article I wrote that many of my client have found helpful. 

Five Tips to Camera Confidence

Camera confidence building starts with good planning!

  1. Make sure you have a hair and makeup trial before the wedding. Your wedding day is not the time be testing new looks. Do not be afraid to speak up if you do not like the way your hair and makeup looks. Your stylist wants to help you look your best and being honest about what you like and don’t like is key.
  2. Posture: Keep your rib cage lifted and shoulders back in a relax natural way. Push your chin up and a little forward if you feel you have a double chin from time to time, (this is a very common issue.) Good posture goes a long way in photos.
  3. Make sure your dress and tux/suit fits properly. Conduct a dance test while wearing your outfit so you know you will be comfortable while having fun on your big day!
  4. Be thorough in your planning so on your wedding day you can be worry free. Delegate tasks to your bridal party before the wedding day, especially if you do not have a full-time wedding planner. This will help you to relax and not have to worry about every detail.
  5. Try to stay on schedule. Hair and makeup running late or the limo not arriving on time, are two things that can add unnecessary stress your wedding day. Running late will often reduce the time you allocated to take any planned photos and disrupt all the confidence you were trying to cultivate.
