I love the chemistry between a man and a woman. The romance, the energy, the intimacy-- and when, at their best, they really do pull out greatness in the other.
I have experienced many subjects and genres of photography over the years, but wedding photography always draws me back. The sheer intensity, the 'once in a lifetime' nature of it, and so much diversity in one day. From details (still life), family portraits, documentary photography, food, fashion photography-- Weddings have it all. I believe Simon Sinek said it best:
"Working hard for something we don't care about is called stress; working hard for something we love is called passion".
When it comes to wedding photography, most of us think of the bigger things first- the classic “money shots”. While I love those shots- I think some of the smaller details, like the wedding rings get over-looked. These details are what ultimately will lead to getting your wedding published- which is always good right? Beautiful […]
Ever since I first read the pages of Jeeves and Wooster some 10 years ago, I fell madly in love with the british humorist P.G. Wodehouse. British humor isn’t for everyone, but this guy. is. good. Witty, hilarious, really a dash of fresh life to our blase’ American vocabulary. Watch a bit of the stuff […]
You may have seen their Edgefield engagement session last summer (view here) and just this last Saturday they tied the knot! Log House Gardens is a stunning venue featuring loads of gorgeous annuals and perennials surrounded by orchards, berry fields and general splendor. I loved seeing Amanda and Justin’s love story culminate on this warm […]
Oh the list of things I wish I had been told at the beginning! As a nervous, self-preoccupied newbie, I was too engrossed in keeping my head above water to take the time and build relationships with the other wedding vendors. What a missed opportunity! This is why I’m telling YOU to open your eyes […]
"Christa, you are such a delight to work with. You bring so much energy and direction to a photo shoot. The photographs you take, are truly a reflection of your talent and passion in photography."
"you bring so much energy
and direction to a photo shoot...."
"Christa is incredible. She really gets to know you, makes you feel comfortable and takes fabulous photos. Christa took our engagement photos, did a boudoir photo shoot for kate and did our wedding. We couldn't be happier with her.
"Christa is professional, fun, creative and in touch with her clients. She makes everyone look and feel beautiful. We could not be happier with her and her work."
Long before I was engaged, I knew I wanted Christa Taylor Photography to capture the special moments of my wedding. She more than met our expectations, and seldom a month goes by without somebody telling us how gorgeous our wedding pictures turned out!
Working with Christa is like finding some awesome girlfriend who completely gets you and can show you the beauty in whatever project you're undertaking. I recommend her to every bride I work with! Thank you, Christa, for your incredible work!
Christa is absolutely PHENOMENAL! My husband and I are beyond blessed to have had her capture our day! She was so great at directing people kindly and having fun too! She's a blast and we enjoyed the day more because of her! We loved getting to know her and she even had us to her home the week after our wedding for a brief photo shoot since the weather had been bad on the wedding day...she really went above and WAY beyond the call of a photographer and became our friend! She's the type we'd schedule a photo shoot with simply to see her and catch up!! There are not words to reccomend Christa highly enough! 💕We love you Christa!!
