i was inspired to write this after a conversation i had today in light of wedding planning season in full swing, but it really applies to every potential photographers client.
when you choose a photographer, you are choosing someone to come into your life, to take part of intimate moments, to document once in a life time events, to capture you. you should be picky. it’s your images they are capturing. your memories. i sincerely believe you should choose someone who’s work you feel is an extension of you. someone who’s personality is compatible, who puts you at ease, and with whom you can establish a bond or trust. i encourage brides to meet me face to face for a consultation before booking, for families to participate in the planing and styling of their sessions, for couples to tell me their story. being your photographer is a privilege, and quite frankly if you’ve chosen me because we mesh, it’s a whole lotta fun.
make sure when you chose your photographer, you choose someone who can and will give you beautiful art for your walls, not just “take pictures” of you or your wedding.
