Spence Photographics | Wedding & Lifestyle Photojournalism »

I am David S. Spence, Chief Photographer and Founder of Spence Photographics, a Frederick, Maryland-based Wedding And Lifestyle Photojournalism studio. I use my many years of newspaper and magazine photojournalism experience to capture couples and subjects as they are, in their own environments. I strive to be "hands-off" in my approach to shooting. My direction to my subjects and couples is minimal so I can capture their true personalities in the images. I look to find natural, organic light to capture the moments as they are. With each wedding and lifestyle shoot comes new and exciting challenges, but also fun and unique personalities that drive my images. I love to see the interaction between two families coming together to form a new family and lasting friendships.
Cheers!
David
