Denis Reggie

With a warm heart and lifelong passion for capturing poignant moments, Denis is one of the most recognized and sought-after photojournalists for weddings of any size anywhere. Master of being everywhere yet nowhere to be seen, he quietly surveys and documents the scene often from the sidelines. His authentic and touching wedding photographs reveal a loving spirit with sincerity and depth as no staged photograph can. He discovers people at their relaxed best without prompting or posing, unaware of his camera or mission. He views himself as a witness and historian on hand to discover and document heartfelt wedding day moments.

Couples see his photographs as unique because he captures authentic moments just as they occur rather than staging pretend, often corny fashion-like poses. He's always believed that couples photograph best when unaware of the camera or process, especially true for those who otherwise tense up when being photographed. A study of his imagery instantly affirms the authenticity of the moment with an unmistakable sense of the couple's own expressions, feelings, and personalities. That's his mission of discovery in documenting weddings large or small. A selection of his work is now part of the permanent collection of the Smithsonian in Washington.
