The thing I love about weddings is that each one is so different. All the time and effort and planning and details that have been 6 months to a year in the making, come to a culmination in one day. Each couple has some unique detail that is specific to them. Whether it be their shared hobby or their lifestyle or maybe something they geek out together about. I often ask my brides and grooms for a shot list not because I need to know what to shoot on a wedding day…but because I know there are those specific shots that the couple wants me to capture or a detail that they dont want me to miss or overlook or a moment that is important to them specifically and uniquely and as their wedding photographer it is my sole responsibility to make sure I curate and capture the day as they need me to. If they request a shot….I want to make sure that they get it on their wedding day. I will often show up early on the wedding day or on my own time outside of the wedding day hours for my clients just so that I can explore the venue to scout out all the great spots for photos and know the lay of the land long before they arrive so that they dont have to worry or be concerned about anything photography related ..they can just relax and enjoy their day and let me handle everything. Joe and Alicia had some unique details that I loved and I dont see often… from a really unique ring box to the guest signing “book” which was the hood of a vintage muscle car…the Lovers Lock on the family tree ……I love the fact that each wedding detail was carefully chosen and thought out, planned and placed for all to discover and appreciate.
