The Gift of Storytelling

Elite Photography TX

I’m A.D. (Adeyemi Adebiyi), a wedding photographer, husband, father, and friend. Photography is a passion of mine and I love it more than anything else that I do. What I really enjoy is capturing unique moments and fleeting emotions on peoples faces. I like being a part of it. 2017 has already been an incredible year! I have gotten to meet, to know, and photograph so many wonderful couples (engaged, married or dating), and each one of these couples is exactly why I LOVE being a wedding photographer! Photographing the love between two people is just an amazing thing to get to do, and I couldn’t be more grateful that they trusted me to capture some new memories for them!

The wedding season started off with Malerie and Thaddeus Randle at Mercer Botanic Gardens in Humble, Texas. We did their engagement session around summer 2016, and it is absolutely still one of my very favorite sessions! They were just so natural and comfortable with each other in front of the camera, and I couldn't wait to get them in front of my camera again at their wedding! As a wedding photographer, one of my favorite parts throughout the wedding process is shooting the engagement session. It really gives me a chance to get to know each couple as they are. Each couple is so different and through getting to know them I am able to truly capture their story on their wedding day.

Malerie and Thaddeus got married this past April. They celebrated their love with a lovely church wedding at Fellowship of Purpose Church in Channelview TX. This is one of those absolutely charming Texas weddings with the ceremony held at the couple’s family’s church, and such a sweet church too. Thaddeus was beaming as his bride walked down the aisle. One thing I loved about Malerie and Thaddeus' wedding was the guests were able to enjoy both a heartfelt ceremony and a light-hearted, fun reception held at Legacy Events in Houston TX. There was a mix of tears and laughter, and I loved getting to hear about how incredible Malerie and Thaddeus are together. (And let’s face it, I already knew from their engagement session that they were a perfect match for each other!).

My favorite moments to capture during weddings would have to be a tie between the first kiss and the first dance. The kiss is affirmation of the power of true love. It’s the most exciting part of the ceremony to photograph, and the couple’s energy can be felt throughout the room. The first dance is also a very special for me at a wedding. It is the time when just about every guest is on the dance floor surrounding the bride and groom, and the energy of the wedding is the highest at this point.

Since my background is in graphic design, my photography started out as more of a tool to help me with my design work. I used my own photography for different projects from ads to posters. I quickly realized that when photographing people, it is important to tell a story through those photos. That said, I believe my style to a natural/storytelling type feel. I enjoy being behind the scenes just capturing what is really going on.Capturing natural interaction between the people I photograph turns out great and definitely helps the nervous ones to let loose and have some fun. One thing I encourage couples to do is… trust me and just have fun!
