I prefer to spend an hour to two hours with a bride and groom before the wedding to create lovely portraits in a comfortable, fun, and often familiar setting. We want to document the day and tell the story through pictures. It’s very important because as all of us know who have been married, our weddings fly by and we barely remember them between the adrenalin and whirlwind events. So it’s up to the wedding photographer to capture all of the emotionally charged moments of this big day so the bride and groom can relive them over and over!
The art-related theme for Meg and Sean began early at the bride’s parents’ home. I can easily say that the setting there rivaled the University of Michigan Museum of Art, which we would move on to next! Maureen, the mother of the bride, is a true artist and has paid attention to every detail in every corner of every room creating the most artistically decorated home and gardens we’ve ever seen. The bride and groom had a great time playfully posing for us both inside and outside and we captured it all for them. We were also able to get many great family photos as well.
J. Love Photography only does a limited number of weddings a year. At this point, I want to do t
hem myself working tandem with another pro who is exceptional (many of you know Dawn). Our wedding photography speaks for itself. So do our albums. I believe this one day in people’s lives is a story worth capturing from beginning to end.
It is an investment that comes back tenfold because the collection of images in an album bring people back to the moment. I know firsthand.
My husband and I just celebrated our 9th anniversary. We played the same music we danced to at our wedding. We drank champagne out of our flutes, and we
went through our wedding album page by page, picture by picture. We were sad at some of the people who are no longer with us smiling at us through the pages. We laughed at the fun we all had. And we remembered exactly how we felt that day; happy, in love, excited, and so blessed. Next year we’ll do the same thing all over again. The years can’t erase our memories because we have our momentos like our album to instantly transport us back there.
Your wedding day is too important not to invest in a professional wedding photographer to capture these moments for you!
