Style Me Gritty

As photographers lament the end of Style Me Pretty, a moment emerges to reflect on the current state of the wedding industry. While launching the careers of many vendors, many wedding blogs became an echo chamber of sameness.

This is the danger when a good idea becomes a template: Shoot like this and you will be published. This encouraged people to follow a formula rather than shoot freely and make discoveries, take risks.

Style Me Pretty may have been a victim of their own success. Trends are tricky to maintain. Even the name sent a message: Direct your subject and make sure to hide any flaws.

What will come next? Who knows. Maybe there is a hunger for something new and true: Unstyled and messy, like much of life.

"With an eye for the unconventional and 'in-between' moments that add color to this special day, Dolan has immortalized the nuptials of people from all walks of life, including such celebrities as Will Smith, Ben Stiller and Gwyneth Paltrow.…"⁠ ⁠ 'John Dolan: The Perfect Imperfect, The Wedding Photographs' — new from @damiani_books — is featured this week @1stdibs⁠ ⁠ @alexandrazagalsky writes, "Many of Dolan’s photographs are playful and irreverent, his subjects often caught off-guard and snapped at unusual angles: A group of wedding revelers is shown being showered with champagne on the dance floor; a barefoot bride breaks free from his frame, her head and torso out of shot, her shoes left behind as a memento; a bride cools under her underarms in front of an air conditioner, presumably to avoid dripping sweat as she walks down the aisle. ⁠ ⁠ In other photographs, Dolan applies a soft-focus that produces a dream-like quality. You see this in the picture of a young bride twirling around in her tulle petticoat, the diaphanous fabric catching the light like a delicate mist.⁠ ⁠ A similarly hazy image captures a couple kissing while sitting at their wedding table. Here, the blurry background becomes a blanket of amber tones, enveloping the newlyweds in a fiery glow.…"⁠ ⁠ Read more via linkinbio.⁠ ⁠ #johndolan #johndolanphotographer #johndolanwedding #photography #photographybook @johndolanphotog @marthastewart https://www.instagram.com/p/CWJd9XQpYlA/?utm_medium=tumblr

An Interview With John Dolan – Author of “Everyone Burns” – AN UPDATE

John Dolan

Without a lot of build-up, here is one of hundreds of reviews a la JD’s book, EVERYONE BURNS – and, it’s not my 5-Star Review. I’ve chosen the following review because it describes this novel with accuracy and provides enough pith of the read to serve as a good summary, to wit:
