Capturing the Flow of Wedding Dresses at San Francisco City Hall


Having photographed over 1,000 weddings at San Francisco City Hall, I have found that most brides love to show off the flow of their wedding dresses.

Over time, I have developed poses using simple dance concepts to capture the dramatic movements of a Bride and her dress.

No matter the time of day or weather conditions, I use lighting to highlight you and your dress and bring out the beauty and flow of your wedding gown.

It turns out that spinning a dress very rapidly introduces dynamics such as centripetal force, air drag and lift as in wing of an airplane. Yes, this may sound like a physics class having nothing to do with wedding photography!

But the end result is that spinning dresses shows off the character & flow of the dress and in a unique way that static traditional poses cannot do.
