Take it from someone (me) who didn’t understand the real value of hiring a professional wedding photographer for the day — Just do it ya’ll. If you don’t, you will regret it for the rest of your married days. Thank GOODNESS I at least hired someone to be there to take our formal portraits on the day of, because I will cherish those photos for the rest of my life. But what about the moment when we smashed cake into our best man and maid of honors faces? What about the pretty photos of all of my wedding day details styled together in the most perfect flat-lay?
Wedding photographers are more than just photographers. They are an additional bridesmaid, groomsmen, wedding planner, day of coordinator, shoe flower dress veil and beer carrier. We are all of the things. In addition to all of that, we are the people who give you the tangible thing that you will have to remember this most special of days. Because the flowers will dry. The cake will be eaten. The dress will be put somewhere out of sight and even the wedding video will be tucked away to only be played on anniversaries (maybe). But your photos will be hung on walls. Your photos will be given to grandparents as gifts. They’ll be the first thing you share to say “heeey I’m married!”.
Yes, we might seem a little expensive…
You are hiring someone who will be next to you the entire day, capturing all of the important memories. Putting an absurd amount of trust into that person is necessary. Do not be afraid to splurge on your photographer. Trust me when I say it is 100% one of the most important investments you will make for your wedding.
ALSO!!! If you feel a strong connection with me, my mission, and my work, I am MORE THAN WILLING to work to get you everything I possibly can within your budget. I understand that weddings, like most things, are not one-size-fits-all. Because of that, neither are my packages. I am also known for running awesome discounts for my instagram followers and Facebook page likers, so give me a follow on the gram and also a like on the book of faces.
