Confessions of a Wedding Crasher

December 10, 2014 by Armen Elliott Photography

When I was 25 and studying photography, I never intended to become a serial “wedding crasher.” I just wanted to understand what women were supposed to do on their wedding day, just in case I ever got married. I also needed a topic for my master’s thesis and that’s when I began my “Women in Ritual” project. My preferred tool of investigation was, and still is, my camera. I use my camera to comprehend the world around me and to better understand subjects […]

Weddings are Not Just for Brides and Grooms

May 15, 2013 by Armen Elliott Photography

We usually think that weddings are all about the bride and groom. They are the reason for the gathering and the focus of attention. But if weddings were just for the bride and groom, they would be the only ones in attendance. Most weddings are community events, whether limited to the immediate family or embracing far-flung remote family members and members of a community. But while they are assembled for celebration, there is also a more subtle reason for the […]

Mothers Make It Happen

May 12, 2013 by Armen Elliott Photography

Happy Mother’s Day to all the mothers of my brides and grooms who have temporarily sacrificed their sanity and serenity to help with their children’s weddings. Listing all the tasks they’ve completed would take pages. They’ve done everything from guest lists and rehearsal dinners to place cards and favors and more. Mothers have helped me to understand the relationships between family members and to anticipate the significant moments of their children’s wedding day. My deepest thanks to all of them.

How to look taller and slimmer on your wedding day!

February 12, 2013 by Armen Elliott Photography

Almost everyone wants to look taller, slimmer and elegant on their wedding day. Recent fashion trends have made strapless gowns very popular. But sometimes horizontal lines can cut you down in height and visually emphasize your width. The key to remember is V-Shaped for vertical. A v-neckline combined with a large, v-shaped, cascading bouquet creates a long vertical line which draws your gaze up and down. If you look at my photo above, you’ll see the bride’s v-neck gown and notice […]
