Bridal West Palm Beach Weddings / Couture Bridal Catalog

Special thanks to Becky for allowing me to photograph her. Hair and Makeup was by Fabiola of Fairytale Beauty. The above images and many others will soon to be featured in a local Palm Beach couture bridal online catalog. As a professional wedding photographer I can say I just absolutely LOVE shooting bridal catalogs. It allows for full control over the subject and lighting and gives me an opportunity to break out the Medium Format Film Camera I learned on over 18 years ago.

So many times I’m asked, “as a professional photographer with all of your experience what would you suggest I do to become a professional wedding photographer or any professional photographer for that matter?“. My answer always remains, purchase a light meter, an old manual film camera 35mm or 120mm, rolls of film and start shooting. When you can, under and light situation, put together a full can that is not all BLACK or all WHITE with proper shadow, mid-tones and high lights you can call yourself a professional and begin to create. All to often, so called “professional photographers” are simply amateurs portraying themselves as professional cloaked behind an expensive digital camera but … simply stated, without a strong understanding of light and the equipment, images produced will be no better or at times even worse them a cheap Point and Shoot.

About Joseph Cristina

I'm a full-time Palm Beach based Professional Photographer with over 18 years experience in both Photography and Graphic / Media Production. Formal training was received from FAU and the Art Institute in the late 80's. I've worked within multiple advertising agencies along with having work published internationally. Allure Multimedia, LLC is my photographic and multimedia studio base in the sunny Palm Beach, FL. The studio's capacities are many from professional photography to advertising design and multimedia presentation ie. (Wedding Photography, Corporate Events, Modeling, Mitzvahs, TV and Internet Advertising Spots) to name a few. In this digital age, the number of part-time photographers has increase 100 fold diluting the industry with what are known as "weekend warriors". This has lend itself to a rise of a cottage industry of amateurs posing as professionals, underbidding and misleading only to then produce mediocre, at best, final production work. Clients coming to us for professional photography or media creation are reassured by our professionalism, impeccable service, and final product provided, they have made the right decision in commissioning our studio.
