Julia+Rob - North Philly In A Different Light
Ian Shiver
When you think about North Philadelphia, you don't tend to think of dark green trees, rocky beaches, and deep grey clouds that rival those of the Pacific Northwest. Well, most of the time you'd be right, but not on the day of Rob and Julia's wedding. I often talk to my clients about how a good photograph can be taken anywhere - about how there is a difference between things that look great in real life (such as monuments and landmarks) and things that lend themselves to being a good backdrop to a photograph. What I love more than anything is to take places out of context, and make them part of a beautiful portrait or an important detail. So you'll never catch me taking photographs in front of City Hall or The Art Museum (C'mon, thats been done a million times) but instead unexpected places that we can work together to transform into something unique.
