Today a styled shoot that is very important to us is featured on Glamour & Grace!
You can head over there to see the whole feature of The Wedding Photos of Peter Parker and Mary Jane Watson. That’s right, we shot Spider-Man’s wedding. We feel like if he were a real person he would hire us being the huge supporters of superheroes that we are. Here you will find the behind the scenes and some background on their styled wedding.
This shoot is 4 years in the making. We had the idea in 2012 when we re-branded to Caroline & Evan Photography and decided to have pop-art and comic book influences into our brand. With our love of comic book movies, we thought imagining the weddings of some of our favorite characters would be incredibly fun and cool, so the research began. This is the first in a series of styled weddings, some that actually happen in comic books and some that don’t. We always wanted Peter & MJ to be the first in our series. With a DIY concept it is the simplest of our designs and seeing Spider-Man in theaters was also our very first date 14 years ago this month. Their love story is also a better known one, even though many movie details are different than the original comic books. What can I say, we have always embraced our geekiness. The concept for Peter & MJ’s wedding includes some details from the wedding issue and some that we came up with because we thought it fit their style and their love story. We captured a few classic Peter & MJ poses and also some that fit our style as wedding photographers, but we were also sure to shoot a few frames of some of the original comic panels from the wedding issue that debuted in The Amazing Spider-Man Annual #21 in 1987. It was important to us to find actors that looked like the characters but also understood what we were doing and could embody their characters on the set, which was a blast.
Here are all the amazing vendors that made this shoot happen, and we are forever grateful. And make sure you stay tuned for the next shoot in this series!
