About the Couple:
What drew you to The Stockroom at 230? What were your favorite things about this venue?
We liked the “rustic” feel, the exposed brick, and the way it all came together with the market lights that hang from the ceiling.
What was your favorite moment from your wedding?
The first look, which I originally was totally against. It was nice having that moment by ourselves.
What was the most helpful piece of advice you received when it came to planning your wedding?
To expect things not to go perfectly and try not to get too stressed…but I did get too stressed anyway.
What was the biggest reason you chose Dave Shay Photography?
I saw the pictures and knew immediately that I wouldn’t find a better photographer for our day. The candid photos are better than any others I’ve seen and the creativity of the staged photos looked amazing as well. Since we had a winter wedding I knew most of our photos wouldn’t have good lighting and no other photographers had any examples of pictures in the nighttime.
How would you describe your wedding day?
Happy, crazy, fun, funny, heartwarming, Christmasy, amazing, perfect. I loved our day, it was worth all of the time, effort, and stress. I’m so thankful for how great everything turned out.
About the images
These all saints chapel wedding images were taken with combinations of a Nikon D4s, Nikon D750, Nikkor 85mm 1.4G, Nikkor 45mm Tilt Shift, Nikkor 24mm 1.4G, 5 off camera Flashpoint R2 Speedlights, and 2 AD-200 strobes with an assortment of MagMod modifiers. All of my images are color corrected with Adobe Lightroom only and not altered or photoshopped in any way.
I’d also like to extend a huge thank you to Aaron for his help on this shoot, some of his images are mixed in with mine above.
