Rangefinder
Magazine Insight / On the Cover by Bill Hurter Weddings,
weddings, weddings. Welcome to our annual wedding issue in which
we celebrate nuptial extravagance and beauty. Honestly, this is our
favorite issue of the year, and apparently it is the favorite issue
of our advertisers as well, as this is the biggest issue of Rangefinder
in our 53-year history! To help us celebrate the art of wedding photography
we have called on some of the finest wedding photographers in the
world, starting with Yervant Zanazanian, known simply as Yervant.
An Australian, Yervant is a true master photographer, displaying
the ultimate in creativity and elegance. Yervant is sought after
the world over for his unique style and reputation. Fellow Australian
master photographer, David Williams, is the author of our profile
on Yervant (pg. 8). Charles Maring is a well known and in-demand
wedding photographer who has built his considerable reputation by
designing the “world-class album.” He has even gone so
far as to start his own in-house lab in order to meet his exacting
standards (pg. 66). California wedding photographer Joe Photo recently
photographed what many would call the wedding of the decade—a
two-week long affair through Europe that called for five designer
gowns and 5000 pictures. It was truly the “Dream Wedding” (pg.
22). Marcus Bell has been Australia’s Wedding Photographer
of the Year as well as that country’s Landscape Photographer
of the Year. Marcus is a premiere storyteller and his visual narratives
will amaze you (pg. 36). Also this month we feature Claude Jodoin’s “The
Art of the Digital Wedding” (pg. 90); profiles on Jerry Ghionis,
Steven Gross and Calvin Hayes; Robyn Hills on the engagement portrait;
Zohrab Markarian, “Photographer of Kings”; Clay Blackmore’s
beautiful infrared studio brides; Sara Frances on the Epson Gemini
workflow and much, much more. Enjoy! Bill Hurter On the Cover
