A page from NH Magazine's Bride featuring post wedding photography of Kevin Jacobus

In the last month or so, Kevin Jacobus Photography has been featured in numerous wedding industry blogs, boston.com and New Hampshire Magazine’s Bride!  We’re already a preferred vendor at Weber Restaurant Group and recently the Tewksbury Country Club featured some of my photographs in their gallery as well.  Here’s the links:

New Hampshire Magazine’s BRIDE: An article quoting Kevin Jacobus featuring post wedding “rock the dress” portraits.
The Charity Wedding: A wedding industry blog that featured some of my trash the dress photography.
Boston.com: A photo gallery of recent weddings and engagements features a photograph from a wedding we worked last summer.
Examiner.com: An article on finding a second use for your wedding gown.

Kevin Jacobus Photography Galleries:

Associate Photographers Galleries:

• Don: Kevin and Don worked together for 6 years at The Telegraph of Nashua, NH, a daily newspaper.  A veteran photojournalist with exceptional available light and documentary skills.
• Nicolaus: He’s also a photojournalist who travels regularly throughout the U.S. and abroad, camera close at hand.
• Chet: Highly proficient at lighting techniques, Chet also doubles as post-production guru for Kevin Jacobus Photography. Perhaps we can chalk it up to a tour in Iraq during his army days, Chet is calm under fire.
• Beth: She has exceptional ability at seeing design in the details and captures people and the things that matter to them with ease.
• Elena: A mother herself, Elena is great at capturing the expressions and antics of children, but she’s also accomplished as a wedding and portrait photographer.

First post ever featuring one of my associate’s work! I brought associate photographers and a videographer on board back in March and they’ve all shot events for me this year and have events booked next year too. This is a slideshow featuring Nicolaus’ photography of Trista and Robert’s vows renewal at Belknap Mills in Laconia, NH, June 27, 2009. Rob is a machinist for a company that makes aircraft parts and Trista is a dance instructor. I personally photographed their family portrait session in August at Castle in the Clouds in Moultonborough, NH, and I’ll be photographing Trista’s trash the dress session in Nashua in October.

Vendors:
DJ: Matt Pearson of Pearson Entertainment
Caterer: Contemporary Catering
Dress Maker/Shop: David’s Bridal in Nashua, NH
Flowers: ordered from SamsClub.com, she made her own bouquet and centerpieces.
Cake: Trista made her own cake – coconut cake with cocoa buttercream filling, frosted with Swiss meringue buttercream, then covered with chocolate shavings.

I had booths at the New England Bridal Affair expo at Vesper Country Club in Tyngsboro, MA and at the first-ever Fenway Bridal Festival Sunday Sept. 27. The turn-out was less than expected, with rain all day not helping attendance, but overall it was a great event. I managed to get a photo of my company logo on the centerfield screen before the show got going as my associate Chet helped out at my booth.

The week before, I photographed a group of brides jumping in the ocean in their gowns for a trash the dress session. All this while shooting lots of weddings and portraits. I also attended the Boston WPPI Road Trip Sept. 30. That was a daylong event at Bentley University in Waltham with speakers Vicki Taufer, John Solano, Ken Sklute, Jed Taufer and Bambi Cantrell. Finally, I attended the Digital Wakeup Call Seminar with David Ziser at the Sheraton in Framingham, Monday, Oct. 5. My associate Elena attended too and she won a door prize!

I’ve got lots of gallery updates and blog posts coming, so keep an eye on the blog! Also visit my booths at some upcoming shows. October 22 I’ll be at the Wedding Event in Newburyport followed by another New England Bridal Affair expo, this time at Stonehedge Inn in Tyngsboro Sunday Oct 25.

Here’s the press release I sent to the newspaper:

Gloucester, MA, September 20, 2009 — As many as 8 recently married women will don their wedding gowns once again for a “trash the dress” group portrait session with Kevin Jacobus Photography Sunday, Sept. 20 on Half Moon Beach at Stage Fort Park. The trend of bridal portraits with a dramatic twist is gaining popularity as brides seek portraits with the fun and excitement of reliving a part of their wedding day without worrying about getting their dress dirty.

Brides will be photographed by the NH-based wedding and portrait photographer in a variety of themed sessions concluding with 8 women jumping into the ocean in their wedding gowns for a dramatic and unusual photograph.

Half Moon Beach was chosen as a location for its combination of sandy beach and rocky outcroppings that provide a beautiful backdrop for a set of photographs that will emcompass fun and fashion.
