PERFECT SUNRISE FOR THE PERFECT COUPLE.<\/span><\/h1>\n

I’m not a morning person. \u00a0 Never was, and I don’t think I never will be. \u00a0 So when a couple comes knocking on my door with plans for a sunrise wedding, fear strikes me as though I’m about to go over the top of a roller coaster. \u00a0But that fear suddenly disappears when I realize that I’m getting paid, and most of all, taking part in a truly special occasion.<\/p>\n

Enter Leland and Kathy, a young couple who had a small\u00a0dilemma. \u00a0 Kathy wanted sunset photographs, but also wanted to attend the Paradise Cove Luau, which also started at sunset. \u00a0She first asked if she could get married at sunrise, and if it were possible to book me for a sunset photography session on another day. \u00a0 Yes, she could do that. \u00a0 And I’m pretty sure most wedding companies would agree to this proposition as it meant more money. \u00a0But the truth was that she didn’t another session as sunrise photos, pretty much turn out looking like sunset photos.<\/p>\n

From there, the plan was set into action. \u00a0Kathy would tie the knot in the morning on the east coast, and then head to the west coast for the luau at sunset.<\/p>\n

\"kristin-sunrise-wedding-7<\/a>Because we were shooting at sunrise, I recommended that Kathy choose to utilize a mixture of film and digital for her coverage. \u00a0This is shot on film.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"kristin-sunrise-wedding-5<\/a>During the vows. \u00a0Yes. \u00a0This is film too. \u00a0I’ll let you know when it’s digital.<\/b><\/p>\n

\"kristin-sunrise-wedding-4<\/a>Those are storm clouds in the picture. \u00a0They usually head away from the mountains at sunrise.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"kristin-sunrise-wedding-6<\/a>Digital shot. \u00a0 My 3 video cameras, and the\u00a0paparazzi\u00a0gang!<\/strong><\/p>\n

There was no complications with their wedding on the day of their wedding. \u00a0In fact, Leland and Kathy, and her family, arrived early. \u00a0The only thing that was apparent, everyone was a little groggy, including myself, who only had two hours of sleep from the night before. \u00a0 I tried to go to sleep early, but I just couldn’t…it happens all the time.<\/p>\n

\"kristin-sunrise-wedding-17<\/a><\/p>\n

Back to film. \u00a0Film has a natural unprocessed look to making pictures look a little warm.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"kristin-sunrise-wedding-16<\/a>I love that look<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"kristin-sunrise-wedding-15<\/a>I think this was the shot that Kathy wanted. \u00a0If I told you this was sunset, you’d probably believe me<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"kristin-sunrise-wedding-14<\/a>This is a film shot that is slightly underexposed. \u00a0When you do this, it adds a yellowish haze to it. \u00a0When you print this on out, it looks quite amazing. \u00a0On the computer screen, it’s so-so<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"kristin-sunrise-wedding-13<\/a>Now the difference between digital and film can be seen here. \u00a0 When the sun dips behind the clouds, shooting on film is rather useless. \u00a0This is why I switched.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"kristin-sunrise-wedding-11<\/a>Digital shot. \u00a0 Some fun “girl controls man” shots.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"kristin-sunrise-wedding-10<\/a>Digital shot. \u00a0The big-big group shot.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Leland and Kathy also hired me to shoot three camera video coverage of their ceremony.<\/p>\n
