Marisa Taylor Photography's Blog – September 2010 Archive (7)

This past Saturday I photographed the most epic wedding ever. Well, it was actually a vow renewal, but epic none the less. Why was it epic? It was a pirate wedding! 9-25-2010 was the first fay of Pirate Weekend at the Maryland Renaissance Fair, which I attend quite often. So I was stoked when Rita asked me to cover her vow renewal at the renaissance fair itself. Everyone, including the officiant were dressed as pirates. This was Ritas' first time being dressed in ren garb, as a person who is… Continue

We went back to where they were married in June, the Judge Morris Estate in Newark, DE and did their session there. Cara and Dan are both writers, gamers, and… Continue

As a photographer, it is one thing for me to market myself, my brand and my photography. Besides actually photographing the weddings, portraits, engagements, and session, the time that I spend with putting myself out there is literally a full time job. But there is but so much that I can do, which is why the words of my past clients are worth so much to me. A review from a past client (now friend) of mine is worth it's weight in… Continue

Yesterday I was browsing the web for some fun DIY, crafty projects and came across the My DIY Wedding Day website. They feature lots of tips on creating a DIY wedding with your own personal style. Among the first page was their Flower Boutonniere tutorial, and I immediately fell in love. These little boutonnieres are so awesome and easy to make! The best part is that they reflect your personal style. I'm big on DIY gifts, because each gift I make is… Continue
