Decisions, decisions, decisions… “What should my wedding colors be? Oh, I should do this!…or maybe I shouldn’t. Yes, well…maybe not. I LOVE this…oh, but I like that, too!” Does this sound familiar as you’re planning your wedding?!
Lately, I’ve been meeting with so many wonderful couples and potential clients, some now officially my clients, and I truly feel for you guys!!! There’s SO much planning to be done before a wedding and I can only imagine how difficult it is choosing your photographer. One of the most important things to remember when choosing a wedding photographer, or any photographer for that matter, is finding someone that you connect with and can create a relationship with.
I have been SO fortunate to have nothing but INCREDIBLE clients (maybe I’m slightly biased)….but I truly feel it’s because I’ve trusted my instincts when meeting with them and they have done the same.
During your wedding planning and on your wedding day, you will be talking to and interacting with each of your vendors frequently, especially your photographer!! And for me, there’s nothing better than snapping that final image and walking away knowing that I’ve made lifelong friends.
I always tell my clients that this is THEIR day! Your vendors should match your style and personality because YOUR day is a reflection of who you are as a couple and a celebration of your love together! And SO when you’re looking for someone, my advice is this:
- Find someone who matches your vision & style of photography.
- Learn about their technique for shooting throughout the day and how they plan to interact with you on your wedding day.
- MAKE A CONNECTION! π Search for someone you connect with and establish a relationship. π
Brad always seems to connect with the ladies. π This was during the bridal preparation for Lauren and this is her M.O.H. Victoria.
I was so confused π ….and flattered when they asked a guest at the wedding to take a picture with my camera. And then they grabbed me for a picture of all of us in their album! π Katy and Armand were AMAZING clients married a few months back at the Louisiana museum.
And this is me!…shooting away before Jon & Lauren’s wedding.
