Staging a Great Sparkler Photo Partway Through the Reception




Amy Frugoli is a Certified Wedding Consultant based out of the San Jose, California. She owns and operates both Twitterpated Weddings and Sugar Tree Sweets and Treats, a mobile sweet shop. Amy has used sparklers from BuySparklers.com with several clients so she was ready for the challenge of coordinating a really special moment for this couple. Amy worked closely with photographers Lindsey Freitas of BellaLu Photography, based in San Francisco, CA. When she saw the results, Amy couldn't wait to show us this photo of bride and groom, Kristan and Paul.

Needless to say, this photograph took our breath away!

How did she do it? We asked Amy to share her secrets...

"Kristan &; Paul really wanted to get a dramatic sparkler grand exit shot at their wedding," explains Amy. " Once I got to talking with them, I realized that actually staging a great sparkler shot partway through the reception would be a better option than at the end when some guests may have left and it would feel rushed. I suggested the 36 inch length so that there was enough time to do several shots and make it a fun activity for the guests as well. It ended up being really fun and best of all, made for some of the most beautiful sparkler shots I have seen. Thanks to photographer Lindsey Freitas of BellaLu Photographer for getting these great shorts and of course the bride and groom themselves for the perfect "dip kiss." All of these elements created pure magic!"

Thank you Amy Frugoli and BellaLu Photography for sharing with us! Your care and expertise shines through every pixel of this image.
