That’s a contradiction but these two words embody how I am at a wedding. I have FUN! I have ENERGY! I am aware and alert, ensuring that I see and photograph the unexpected moments, the planned traditions, the laughter following a crazy move on the dance floor, the adoring smile from a parent after that first kiss. But a calmness, that I’ll be honest isn’t always my modos operandi haha, remains with me as I photograph weddings. I know what I need to capture and I know that weddings can have a crazy energy and can be stressful, particularly for my couples. I remain calm and keep tabs on my couples to be sure they’re enjoying the moments and focusing on their day. I check in to be sure they’ve had a bite to eat, a drink, a chance to breathe. The day can go so quickly, I know the photographs I take will help my couples remember the start of their wedded story, but I want them to remember to be present and to enjoy the little moments too.
