|
|
| the real emotions, | the real joy | the real life, |
A more personal approach,
going beyond the traditional couple and family portraits
(although these are, of course, also part of it).
All day, we will be taking photos of the whole wedding, including preparation, ceremony, reception, and whatever else will happen, focusing on our unique photojournalistic photography. |
|
| Our firm belief that people look best when not aware of being photographed is clearly reflected in the naturalness and beauty of our work. | |
| Couples will keep all the originals and can make their own reprints. We usually shoot both black&white and color at the same time, using several cameras. Apart from English, André also speaks German, Spanish, and French - just in case... | |
Real Life! ... See all the happenings of this most important day, don't miss a beat... Real Joy! ... Every moment of the celebration will be recorded, as it happens -- not just studied poses but the real smiles. Real Emotions! ... You will never want to lack the crucial picture - photos, that show the love, the happiness, the beauty of the day. |

from "The Art of Celebtration"": The talents of a great photographer can touch on the superhuman: a photographer must first possess the uncanny ability to be everywhere at once, invisibly of course, and read the minds of his subjects. Then translate his style into one that fits seamlessly into the moments of the events. That, combined with mastering the art of digitally perfecting each photo, gives the photographer a special power all his own. Clients—established and prospective—know exactly what they’ll get in André Maier Photography, including André’s personal attention. Yes, New Yorkers do talk. Although his fans may not be able to put their finger on precisely what makes them delight in their photographs, André can—it’s what guides each project. Whether it’s blurring a background to emphasize a focal point, exaggerating the red hue of a table setting, securing an unbelievable vantage point or boosting an entrance’s illumination, André works tirelessly to convey what each moment felt like. In the end, it’s why we love photos that connect us: it’s to remember how we felt in that moment. André captures those moments as beautifully as his clients remember them. |
| “When looking at their photography, I want my clients to immediately be transported to that moment—what it felt like, what it meant to them.” —André Maier |
