The memories....






Today as i was spending some time editing i started to wonder what it was that people remembered most about their wedding?
Was it the smell of your flowers? Or the feeling of your heart pounding on your chest? The quiet advice people share before you walk down the isle? Was it the sound of the ground rising to meet your every footstep? Was it the look on your Grooms face when he saw you for the first time? Or the music being played as you committed to a life together, for richer or for poorer, for better or for worse?  

was it the touch of your husbands lips as he softly kissed you on a promise of a life forever?

i remember feeling an unquestionable peace knowing that i was going to be married to the only person in the world that i knew would love me my whole life no matter what.... i also remember thinking i have no idea how today will go, but it will go & i will be left with the photo's & the memories... we hadn't practiced our dance, but we knew what song we would shuffle too, we hadn't practiced our speeches, but we knew we wanted to share our happiness with everyone there.. 

As a wedding photographer, it is my job & anyone else that chooses to do so to ensure that each photo takes you back to a moment on your special day. Every time you look at a photo you should be able to remember the conversation, the feeling, the sounds around you, the details on your dress, the smell of your partner, your best mans speech, it should be there in front of you in pictures...

if you can spare a minute do you mind sharing what you remember most about your wedding?

the specialness of a wedding is as unique as the moment in time it was lived in...
