It was completely happenstance, the moment that photographer Denis Reggie met Ethel Kennedy and her daughter Courtney in February 1980. He was in his hometown of New Orleans on assignment for a local newspaper, tasked with capturing the arrival of the mayor to the presidential-bid campaign event being held for Edward M. Kennedy. “I had the chance to chat with Courtney, who had just gotten engaged,” recalls Reggie.
After that, Reggie would go on to photograph more than 29 weddings for the Kennedy family, as well as nearly 2,000 weddings and other special events for both non-celebrities and celebrities, the likes of whom have included Rudolph Giuliani, John Kerry, Vera Wang, and Mariah Carey. His client roster may be grand, but Reggie’s work is all about the small, unassuming gestures of love. His style of wedding photography has come to define the antithesis of the staged and posed.
Reggie describes himself and his team as “type B” personalities. “We’re very subordinate to the event,” he says. “We don’t focus on the Jimmy Choo label or the wedding rings, but our heads and hearts are in full receptor mode, looking for love and real moments.” For Reggie, a few of those real moments actually turned into iconic ones, beginning with the image of John F. Kennedy, Jr., and Carolyn Bessette walking together and beaming out of their ceremony on Cumberland Island in Georgia.
There was also the wedding of Maria Shriver and Arnold Schwarzenegger in 1986. “I remember Maria asking me to take a photograph of her and her bridesmaids just before the ceremony. Everyone stopped and looked toward me, but at that same moment, the wind from the Hyannis Port Cape blew off the water, and her 20-foot-plus train and veil engulfed the bridesmaids,” he remembers.
