A wedding at Coastal Events & Occasions

From the windows
to the water.

Matt and Daniel got married beside the windows at Coastal Events & Occasions. Later, we took their portraits down to the beach. There was room for the ceremony, their people, and a little playing around in the sand.

I’m Glenn. This is a look at how I photographed their day, in digital and on Portra 160. If you’re planning a wedding around Sneads Ferry, start here.

01 / The ceremony

Light through the windows.

The vows, the kiss, and everyone there to see it.

02 / Their people

A wedding is everyone in it.

A few photographs together. A room full of familiar faces.

03 / Down to the beach

Shoes off.
A little closer.

A walk by the water turned into a piggyback ride, a few kisses, and these photographs.

04 / A little film, too

The same day.
Another texture.

I brought my Nikon F100, 28mm and 50mm lenses, and Kodak Portra 160. For the ceremony, I also used my Godox Lux Master and X1 flash setup.

These film frames sit alongside the digital photographs in their full gallery.
