I think I’m going to start writing down my thoughts about wedding days while I’m still on the high of them!
It’s always strange to me how I can walk into a room full of complete strangers and, by the time I leave, feel like I know them.
I know the way he looks at her when she isn’t paying attention.
I know which friend will make her laugh when she’s nervous.
I know how her mom will look at her when she walks down the aisle.
I know the stories behind the people standing beside them.
I know the little moments that almost nobody else noticed.
And somehow, for one day, I get invited into all of it.
That’s the part of this job I’ll never take for granted.
I don’t just get to photograph a wedding day.
I get to witness people becoming family, old stories being made new, and two people choosing each other in front of everyone they love.
Then the wedding ends. Everyone goes home. The music stops. And I’m left with thousands of photographs and the feeling that I just spent an entire day inside someone else’s life.
Maybe that’s the magic of it.
You arrive as a stranger, spend a day witnessing a love story that isn’t yours, and leave carrying a little piece of it with you.
Congratulations again and again .odea.ntm and
