By Lee Cabot Walker for The Brooklyn Papers

onsidering all the hard work that gets poured into making a bride’s Cspecial day just perfect, one hopes that the photographs that will document the event forever are just what she has in Sponsored by mind. From the photography style to the number of prints and albums, from the photographer’s price to pocket-draining hidden fees, there are many variables to monitor to ensure that this keepsake will be worth keeping. Too many decisions, perhaps. That’s why The Brooklyn Bride talked to Scott Whittle, a Park Slope-based photogra- pher who has specialized in wedding photography for 12 years. Whittle has a master’s of fine arts in photography from Manhattan’s School of Visual Arts and, having documented weddings throughout the tri-state area and beyond, has experience shooting weddings that vary greatly in location, size and style. Whittle’s unique photography, which he describes as a “candid, personal style,” is distinguished by his fine arts background and by the eight or nine different cameras he’ll use for a single wedding album. “When people got tired of studio photography, they turned to 35-mil- limeter [cameras] for a candid ap- proach,” Whittle said. “But even 35- millimeter, when used exclusively, can begin to look a little flat.” Whittle uses several cameras including a Holga (which distorts the image for a vignette effect, like a pinhole camera), Polaroid, panoramic as well as a 35-millimeter. FABULOUS HAIR, GLAMOROUS MAKE-UP “The bride needs to be comfortable with getting what she wants and not be Setting convinced that she should choose the n a Posh Salon fine arts look just because it’s the trend I these days,” Whittle advised. Because a bride shouldn’t hire a photographer unless she has a clear vi- sion, in advance, of what the final prod- uct — and price tag — will be, The Brooklyn Bride assembled, with Whit- tle’s advice, a top 10 list of questions a bride can ask herself — and her pho- tographer — before choosing a lens- It’s a snap: When shooting a wedding, Park Slope photographer Scott Whittle man for her wedding day: uses a variety of cameras for an array of effects.
