Mini Details At Magnolia Plantation & Gardens
Shooting details is so important for any wedding. So many times as a historian, I am reminded of how to capture many different parts of what makes a wedding, after all a lot of planning and decorating goes into one, but more importantly, I am always shooting for many different reason, you have to remember to tell a story of this magical day, for the bride and the groom, making sure that if any close relative or friends that were not able to attend, will be able to get a real feel of how the day was so perfect, more importantly painting for the album, when you design it, that there is ample images to make your album spread a Wow factor. I guess that is why I not only love this passion of mine, but how I feel I do my very best every time…!
How I See Your Wedding Day. A Little Something About Me.
Everyday I am blessed to be able to open my eyes and be able to see, My heart beats for the ones I love, especially my two wonderful daughters, Courtney & Chloe, the fact that I am a full time wedding photographer is even more awesome, as I have a true love for what I do…! My blog is about more of how I see and feel when I have that privilege and honor of photographing a wedding.
From the moment when I get all of my equipment cleaned, battery charged, digital cards loaded in the camera, my so called commando jacket on and the three cameras with various lenses on them, I am ready, a wedding to me in my view is about having a passion for fashion, every bride wants to look like a fashion model, there are elements, details, various angles, lighting, its about watching, observing and following the day, the mood, the feel, the emotion, the happy times, its being able to adjust my shooting from being a fly on the wall, to a calm state of mind, there are patterns and interactions, keeping your images fresh, having respect for the bride and groom and all that are attending this wonderful occasion, its having a admiration to do the best possible job, to capture images for that one and only possible time that will not only last a lifetime, but for images that you are so very proud of, best of all it is about making your clients very happy. Once that is accomplished, then you know that there is beauty in every wedding you have captured. Enjoy…!
