The body keeps score , the marks fade but the moments stay forever

There’s a whole side of a wedding day that rarely makes it onto instagram. So much of a wedding happens in the in-between moments

The quiet deep breaths
The weight of the day
The little sacrifices no one sees

It’s not just the big moments! It’s often the quiet ones that stay with you

This week, we were reminded that people don’t hire us just to use a camera , they hire us to pay attention.

More often than not, this requires patience, intuition, and the ability to read people . It can be subtle, it can happen in an instant, and it can be truly unforgettable. But it can also slip by unnoticed.

This frame was captured through the perfect combination of all of that and it’s why we love it !!

Happy Women’s day !

“I knew a girl and she felt like art.
Sometimes colorful, sometimes dull, Sometimes with bright, hopeful eyes, Sometimes only black and white,
But she was always a piece of exquisite art”

A big hurdle we feel in our industry is often Expectations of couples , so we want to provide some insight into what often goes into the images you will see on social media.

This image for example! Of taken on the dance floor of her reception is a prime example, it’s almost a once in a lifetime shot and wouldn’t be possible without any of the elements like ( emotion , professional lighting, an on trend wedding dress)

You see all those elements work together to create how you feel about the image! We often say that we don’t mind couples giving us reference images (it helps us understand where their heads are at ) but we cannot (unless you have the exact wedding, exact emotions, ect ) replicate that image, it’s not possible.

So remember, sometimes when you see an amazing wedding on social media, often many elements came together to produce that image . (Budget , venue choice , planner choice , photographers ability, lighting, outfit selection)
