Rob is a great choice for any style/vibe you are going for. He will adapt and make your visions a reality. Our engagement session was a great way to get to know each other and see how filming together on our actual wedding  would be.  He made all of us comfortable and he almost seems like a member of the family now, he’s come to our house any time we’ve needed to work out our plans and afterwards, our albums. He provides a generous amount of materials after the fact, we got a gorgeous wall mount of our favorite shot, a classic leather bound album, and a usb of everything as well. Would recommend him every time and will use him again for a trash the dress, or vow renewal down the road.
Go with Rob!

Rob was absolutely amazing! We did a sunrise engagement shoot in Old Orchard Beach and he went above and beyond to capture the most beautiful shots of us. From arriving at 4:30 in the morning, to making sure we felt comfortable, and giving us so many ideas for poses. The photos are an absolute work of art and speak for themselves!

Jordan & Brad

So my wedding was in December and I received my gallery from Rob a few weeks back…I literally have no words…our photos are STUNNING, ELEGANT, BEAUTIFUL, MAGICAL…I’m not going to be able to pick every single photo tells the story of our beautiful day, and I’m so thankful to have had it be caught by this lense… if your thinking of booking Rob do it I can attest you will not be disappointed and his personality to boot will put your special day at ease that is for sure…I was so thankful to have them on my day not only as my photographers but my friends ❤️❤️❤️💕💕💕

From our very first interaction Rob was friendly and responsive to my needs. Prior to the event he asked thoughtful questions to understand what I was looking for in a photographer and was willing to look at my Pinterest board for a deeper understanding. Leading up to the event, he checked in with me to ensure nothing changed and that our timeline for the day was set. Rob was flexible the day of and easily went with the flow of the day/evening. He added much needed levity to ease the nervousness we felt while getting ready and infused so much fun into the evening. Our guests loved him! He put us at ease in front of the camera, coached us into the poses we had wanted to capture, suggested several of his own and managed to capture a great mix

We were referred to Rob for new family photos of my wife, myself and our 2 children. Rob offered 2 great locations with barns paired up with his old school pickup truck. The pictures came out absolutely incredible. They are exactly what we hoped for with the truck, barn and wide open field/farmland in the background. Rob had his partner Kat with him to assist with the shoot. Keeping a 2.5 year old and 6 month old entertained for an hour of pictures is no easy task. But Rob and Kat together were amazing and did a great job at getting our kids attention and capturing the moment. I can't recommend Rob enough. He is fun, personable and has great energy. We look forward to working with him again in the future.

First off, Rob Desmond was absolutely FANTASTIC! If you are thinking of hiring him, just give him a call and you will know if he is the photographer for you right away. I wanted to hire him after one conversation. He is a truly caring person and could not have asked for a better photographer by our side on the BIGGEST day of our lives. Just give him a call, you won’t regret it…”

Albums and Prints

A trend in Wedding Photography has been post-wedding Photo Shoots. Obviously it can be a pre or post-session, but the idea is to have some great photos that are not so formal. This will let the couple be more relaxed, and have some fun with the creativity that a good photographer can bring, all the while leaving you with some remarkable images.&nbsp;Some tips to make your session work for you are below.
&nbsp;
<h2>Choose a Strategic Location</h2>
Depending on the theme that you&rsquo;ve selected for your session, pick a location that best fits the output that you have in mind.
&nbsp;
<h2>Prepare Your Outfit</h2>
What sort of clothes makes you feel good? What outfit will be in accordance with your chosen theme? What makes you feel comfortable? What colors would match with your fianc&eacute;&rsquo;s attire? Keep in mind that your wedding day formal attire is always a perfect choice!
&nbsp;
<h2>Choose The Best Time</h2>
The best times for capturing your couple snapshots are during the golden hours of the day. If you&rsquo;re wondering what this photography jargon means, the golden hour describes the period of time of the day when the sun&rsquo;s rays are softer in appearance. This typically occurs just after sunrise or just before sunset and can have a charming effect in photographs. However, with our LED and strobe lighting, we can accommodate any time of the day.
&nbsp;
<h2>Wear Comfortable Shoes</h2>
You don&rsquo;t want your photographer to capture how exhausted you are while wearing your heels, right? Wearing proper footwear will ensure that you&rsquo;ll stay in a great mood despite the long day of walking and posing for photos. You can still wear heels if it&rsquo;s part of the outfit but opt for the comfy sneakers when strolling to and from your different locations.
&nbsp;
<h2>Ask Your Photographer for Suggestions</h2>
If you need more advice or if you have any questions, don&rsquo;t hesitate to consult your photographer! They will have the knowledge and expertise about what works and what doesn&rsquo;t work for your portrait session. Spot A Shot Photography can help you with any inquiries and concerns regarding your pre and post-wedding photography session.
