I (Ben McMillen) had so much fun on this engagement shoot at Phipps Conservatory. What a great couple. I'm jealous that Bailey gets to shoot their wedding. I think we laughed pretty much the whole time. And their story about how they got engaged was so good I'll never tell me wife :) It involved a helicopter. Pretty freakin' cool. Enjoy the images!

IDEAS FOR WEDDING PICTURES Part 1: Couples

IDEAS FOR WEDDING PICTURES PART 1: Couples

My name is Ben McMillen the owner of McMillen Photography. As a wedding photographer who is out every weekend capturing images for clients you would think I'd get bored or content. Well let me tell you from my viewpoint there is nothing boring about wedding photography. I truly love every minute of it! I'm always looking for new ideas for wedding pictures. And since your reading this I'm assuming you are too!

As photographers we are constantly looking for new inspiration for old poses that still invoke some type of feeling. Which is the thought or objective behind this blog post. One place I often look for inspiration is the work of our own experienced photographers right here at McMillen Photography based in Waynesburg PA. Being from South Western PA allows us to shoot weddings all over several major wedding markets like Pittsburgh PA, Washington PA, Wheeling WV & Morgantown WV. As you can imagine that gives all types of different weddings from rustic country weddings to more urban city weddings and everything in between...

It's 2 days before Christmas, 7 days before New Years Eve, and 52 days before Valentines Day. If your dating someone chances are the subject of getting engaged has popped up a few times. Being a wedding photographer this is our busiest time for booking engagement sessions.  

Before the phone starts ringing off the hook I thought I'd compile a list of our studios favorite engagement session photos. We shot around 200 engagement sessions in 2015 and we narrowed it down to our favorite 75. All sessions were photographed by the photographers at McMillen Photography either in our studio, outside our studio or the the location of our clients choice. Hope you enjoy!

Wedding photography Ideas - The Backlit Shot
by Ben McMillen
​McMILLEN PHOTOGRAPHY

Wedding Photographers all have their signature images they capture at most weddings. I've been a wedding photographer for about 15 years now and came up with a few of my own. ​I have several "go to" shots that I pull out of my bag of tricks every week. But my favorite by far is the "backlight" shot. 

Take an ordinary shot, add in an extra light source and get a little creative!
