Amanda and Rob: The Society Room of Hartford

2010-12-21T14:49:00.001-08:00

I had the distinct pleasure of photographing Amanda and Robs most fantastic
wedding day.

A December wedding, and the excitement was in the air. At the Hotel, we were able to capture some of my truly favorite shots. From getting ready details, to the 50's Hollywood glam of the ladies...and you know I LOVE the ATTITUDE SHOT ha ha! The Men were ready for some vanity fair edge, and then it was off to the church...a brisk Hartford walk across the street to Christ Church.

The Ceremony. Breathtaking. The architecture; epic.

The reception kicked off at The Society Room of Hartford, a truly delicious venue for any photographer. The lush painted ceilings tower high above the party crowd and the 40 foot+ marble columns add to the glamorous atmosphere. The crowds partied all night thanks to Dj's "Jock in the Box"(Todd Powers)

What could be better...than a little snow falling on Pratt street, adding just the right touch to Amanda and Robs night photos. It was spectacular. Thank you for letting me photograph this most important day.

Introducing: Traci & Bill

2010-03-15T13:16:00.000-07:00

I have had the pleasure of knowing Traci and Bill from their fantastic work with Pavilion Caterers and the CT Wedding Group. When it was time for them to have their big wedding day, they wanted artistic, fun and creative photographs of the beauty which was their wedding. The wedding vibe was "50's Hollywood, with a modern twist"...their pictures came alive with that modern, edgy feel... of Airen Miller Photography.

Congrats and best wishes!

Airen Miller Photography

Written by Adam Durso in Featured Articles, Photography on Sep 23rd, 2009

When waxing emotionally nostalgic through the pages of a wedding album, it is not uncommon to find that the most intensely warm memories are triggered by the strangest, most subtle things. The lens of Photographer Airen Miller has provided a close up for all of those intrinsically meaningful subtleties, and encapsulates the perfect love, euphoria, innocence and youthfulness inherent in any wedding day.

Miller’s work, which connects modern art sensitivity and an eye for lush colors with photojournalistic sensibilities, can be described as at once vibrant and elegant as it is haunting, and has been included in several publications including Connecticut Bride and Hartford Magazine, with a recent feature on The Today Show with Kathy Lee Gifford.

Use of lighting and shadow grant his photography a kind of surreal, noir-like ambiance, while the various askew angles capture the conceptual uniqueness of the backdrops making place a story teller, as if every light, stone tower and weathered oak tree exists to accentuate the experience of the bride and groom.

There is an air of distance to many of Miller’s subjects, as though while physically in front of his camera they have channeled some perfectly intimate and euphoric, however transient place some immeasurable distance away. His photography freezes that place and contains it in all of its depth and intensity.

Airan’s photography extends far beyond wedding vows and chapel bells. His work also chronicles years of travel. Around the world he captures that same opaque uniqueness and conceptual nuance with the same attention to bright, saturating colors.

Miller additionally branches out with energy and style to celebrity photography, as he recently worked a photo shoot of up and coming Long Island based, leather clad indie rock singer Gina Cutillo in New York City. The shoot coincides with the release of Cutillo’s third album.
