CHOOSING A WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER

Let's be real: wedding photography isn't for newbies. It's a whirlwind of emotions, unpredictable weather, and the pressure to capture it all flawlessly. So, wanna know the secret to spotting a true pro? Consistency!

Ditch those "best of" galleries and dive into full weddings. Look for killer shots from start to finish – creative lighting, natural poses, and polished editing that screams "this is MY style". A seasoned photographer can rock any situation, from moody chapels to blinding sunlight.

Speaking of lighting... the right gear matters! A flash is great, but a pro can also work magic with the natural light and add a splash of creative lighting when needed. It's all about coaxing those genuine smiles and ditching the cheesy grins. It takes a photographer who can connect with couples and put everyone at ease.

Picture this: your day flows, the weather throws a curveball (classic!), and your photographer adapts without missing a beat. That's the experience and people skills you need. And don't even get me started on lens power – a must for capturing those magical low-light moments.

My portfolio? A wild ride of beautiful challenges! From stormy skies to golden hour magic, you'll see consistent creativity, especially in those dreamy low-light shots (my fave!). I've got the gear, the backup gear, and the know-how to make your photos epic, even if your wedding throws us a surprise or two.

Last but not least: the vibe matters! Your photographer should be someone you click with, someone who makes the whole process FUN. Coffee, albums, and swapping wedding day dreams? I'm in! Let's chat and make some magic happen.
