You're Engaged

It still sounds crazy right? Well it is!!! Congrats! So now you've begun the amazing yet daunting journey of planning a wedding. Wow, so much stuff to do! Where to start? Well I've been to a lot of weddings and I feel like I have a decent grasp on what most couples find important at a wedding. And almost nothing is more important than your venue choice.

"WAIT HOLD ON! You're a photographer! You don't think a good photographer is the most important choice? What kind of business are you running here?!"

I know... and I once truly believed that hiring a good photographer was the top priority. 10 years into your marriage, the only thing you're left with after your wedding is your photos. However, the more weddings I shoot at a variety of venues, the more I have realized that it is definitely a more important decision than your photographer... which is why almost every couple who has hired me already knows where they're getting married.

"Okay Mr. Photographer... why do you care so much about where I get married? Aren't you going to get paid either way?"

You're right! The decision of your venue does not impact me in any way financially... but that's not what this blog is about. You would not believe the impact a venue has on the quality of your photos! And when I have to deliver photos that I do not believe are of my highest quality, it breaks my heart. So I want to help couples with this decision so they know what to look for in a wedding venue, in regards to photography.
