NYC Documentary Style Photography Wedding Dress Fittings

Share

We at Angela Cappetta Photographs love all things dress-fitting related. You name it: the pins, the tucks, the imperfections; we relish all parts of the process. When you find your dress, you fall in love with it. But before you can move down the aisle like a dream, it has to fit. Enter the seamstresses, those deft geniuses who make it look so easy. These artists are not just designers, but sculptors, mathematicians and therapists. We dove right into the opportunity to shoot this in true NYC documentary style photography style.
All images shot by Angela Cappetta with a Siciliano Camera Works custom Panoramic Camera on black and white Kodak film, hand processed in a darkroom by the photographer. To us in NYC, documentary style wedding photography never looked so intimate.
