Wedding images create a visual legacy for generations to come. Without a well taught and experienced wedding photographer like myself, you'll only have memories that fade over time. In 50 years, your wedding dress will have pin-pricked holes and the wafting smell of the mothballs that tried futilely to preserve its once crisp, pristine condition. The cake is long gone, the band went home, the flowers are brown and withered from their former glory. It's the images that make weddings timeless, immortal. A great photographer can tell a visual story that can make anyone feel as if they were the lone participant in the event. It is through lighting and composition that a photographer draws a viewer into the frame. Hire a photographer with a passion for their work and a solid educated background with time served in the industry; you will have a brilliant storybook to share. Dollar signs and hesitations from clients disappear. You will leave a visual legacy, and your grandchildren will thank you. You'll be providing a glimpse into their history as if they were present. This I believe.
