Portrait Olivier Lalin

Award winning, wedding, France, Marriage, olivier lalin, paris, photographer, photographe, Noir et Blanc, classique
One of my bride was kind enough to send me a photo of myself & her wedding photographer.
It was taken by a guest at one of my summer weddings in France @ Chateau de Champlatreux.
It shows the "Man at work": Happy, relaxed, goofy, enjoying a wonderful day.
I am showing this picture not so much to prove my good look but rather to convey the mood of a professional photographer at work!
I always tell my brides that they should make sure to book a photographer who loves his wedding work and does not photograph weddings only to pay the bills. i believe a wedding photographer has to be passionate about his craft in order to excel at the task at hand. Like a good wine, twenty years of experience transcend into a jolly fellow whose job ( his passion ) has become second nature. It is most important to get everyone to simply enjoy the photographer's company very quickly. Only then will you forget the fact that you are being photographed.
That's when magic happens!

New York City frame of mind

new york city wedding, new york city photographer, high end wedding photography
I guess it is the time of the year when you start to look back at what you have achieved,
contemplate the road ahead, set yourself new goals, reconnect with Friends and associates.
I am in NYC busy with meetings, connecting with new clients.
I love this city, was walking down 5th avenue at night fall and i had to stop and snap
a few shots as i was heading east side to catch up with a friend!
