Any wedding advisor will tell you
how important it is to meet the photographer, review their work, discuss
your needs and make sure they are someone you want to record one of the
most important days of your life. It’s important to establish a good
working relationship from the start because you will be interacting a
great deal during the period before and after the wedding day. I’m often asked, “How many pictures will you take
during my wedding?” That’s really hard to say because I don’t allot a
certain number of rolls of film per wedding. We may take as few as 150
(at a very small wedding), or as many as 600 photos. Whatever it takes to
capture the story of your special day is how many we take.
An important part of the process is to sit down with
each couple and discuss their photo list, expectations, and special
requests prior to the wedding date so they don’t have to worry about
it…they can just enjoy their wedding day.
Dot photographed her first wedding in the early 1980’s
as a wedding gift for a special friend’s daughter. “I discovered then
that many photographers miss many of the key moments during the wedding
day. The bride’s best friend was amazed at all the photographs taken that
day.” She commented, “You have pictures of everything from getting
dressed to leaving for the honeymoon! At my wedding the photographer was
so busy having a good time during my reception, he neglected to take many
important photos. There is a lot missing in my album.”
My goal is to record the whole story of a wonderful day in
a couple’s life…both for them and their family. Photographs are a
treasure you can pass down for generations. (click on picture for large version of sample) |
