Mollie Wetta Photography

Mollie Wetta did my engagement photos and wedding photos in 2013. Mollie is very down to earth and quickly responded to my inquiries. I really liked the way she captured the love between the couples in her photos and I wanted my photos to be just as good. I was obsessed with the engagement photos; I figured I would want more of them around the house than me in a white dress. I picked a couple of our favorite places that had sentimental value for us as a couple and then I coordinated outfits to go with those places. Then I went on pinterest and viewed several engagement photos to get an idea of poses. I made a inspiration board for each place with outfits and poses and sent it Mollie in advance. This worked out really well. Mollie knew in advance what I was looking for and was able to add a number of additional poses at each place. In addition, she took us to some places that she knew about that would go with our theme. It took about 1-2 months after the shoot to get our pictures.For the wedding, we did the same thing. My groom and I put together an inspiration board of photos we wanted to take with our bridesmaids/groomsmen. My husband took advantage of this and went to several locations around the wedding site and got some really good photos (Mollie's husband took these photos). I was exhausted and choose to stay in my suite with my bridesmaids, but we still used a number of the poses from my inspiration board and got some really good photos as a result. I didn't put as much effort into the wedding photos and since Mollie knew this wasn't a priority for me, there were only a handful of pictures of just me and my groom. There were still good pictures, but only a handful to choose from. Mollie and her husband stayed for the reception and got all the traditional photos, but by this time, I didn't care anymore and it showed in the photos. It took 2-3 months to get the wedding photos back. There were over 1500 photos from the wedding day and we got about 600 to choose from. It was a little overwhelming. All in all, I had a great experience working with Mollie and her husband and would recommend them to anyone considering them for their wedding. However, remember that you are an active participant in the photo process; the more effort you put into your pictures, the more you will get out the experience. I recommend researching what you want in advance and letting your photographer know what your priorities are. We referenced the poses from the inspiration boards several times at each shoot and my favorite photo is from one of those poses that I never would have been able to come up with on the spot.
