Snapshot: Darice Michelle

I did a destination wedding in Ponte Vedra Beach this past weekend for nearly 200 guests and a high-profile bride... in a monsoon... with the tagline of the event being "welcome to the sunshine state"... It was bananas! Amongst all of the chaos, I looked over to see that the second shooter on this wedding was none other than the ever-so-talented Darice Michelle. I had admired her work for quite some time but had yet to work with her... and I must say that she was a delight! The thing that I like most about Darice's work is her attention to detail. As an event designer, I spend countless hours perfecting small details of the day which I find to be "subconciously impactual" meaning that no one knows that they are there and no one would miss them if they were gone- but when they think back to the wedding- I hope that these are the little things that come to mind (the monogrammed towels in the bathrooms... the signature drink with berries at the bottom... the cohesive thread that bound the entire event... the milk and cookies on their pillow after the reception). I really appreciate that Darice takes the same approach with her photography- capturing all of those tiny moments in time that were so special and really may have gone unnoticed if not for her lense. Hooray for her- and you should check out both her site and blog... they are rather impressive (but in a comforting, non pretencious kind of way... sort of like a visit to an old friend...)
