Photographing weddings used to make me so nervous. But over the years I have come to enjoy the anticipation of the event and delight in the wedding itself. They are each so different and can be full of family tradition or be creating new traditions. Sometimes they are starting new ready-made families and when the children participate it can be so special and touching. I always love spending that one special day with each family and in some small way I'm a part of that family (for the day). And I always leave feeling like I've made new friends.
Even more wonderful for me lately is the addition of my daughter Ashley to my shooting staff. Ashley brings her artistic sense (and her BA in Animation and Media Arts) and always surprises and delights me with her finished product. So you see it's a family affair for me as well.
On Saturday, as you sleep in or mow the lawn or catch up on your shopping, I will be creating memories for a bride and a groom and their families and enjoying each and every moment. I have the best job in the world!
