I clearly remembered Loren and Richard come to our booth at a bridal show in January. I remembered thinking, "Wow! What a beautiful couple!" As they looked through our albums, I could tell right away that they knew how to appreciate the art of photography. The questions that they asked were different than the norm... they knew how to ask the technical and the artistic side of digital photography, and I really appreciated that about them.
Looking back on our wedding day, so many things went right and so many things went wrong... or I should say, "not as planned". One thing we can't forget even if we tried was that it rained. Rained "cats and dogs". Alllllllll day! The day before and the day after were perfectly fine. :) It rained so much that we couldn't even attempt to go outside.
We met this bride's family yeeeeeears ago... Like over 13 years ago when we used to work in the youth ministry of our church. That was a time before we were even married... not a thought about having a photography business crossed our minds. In fact, we weren't even into photography at all! Isn't it amazing how time can change things?
We came to a point where we had to make a decision. A decision for our health... We got tired of making excuses for ourselves. Saying things like "I just don't have the time....", "I'm too tired to workout.", "I wish I had the leisure and the money to do that.", "I have three children... are you kidding?"
Well, one thing I've learned over the years and especially in the years of running our business is that everyone has money and time for what's important to them. You will always find the time and the money for what you want the most.
In just six months, we had three shoots with this couple... their engagement portraits, wedding and now, their first family portraits! Oh, I just LOVE people who love to document their lives! And I have to add that Sara and David are probably the most laid back, easy going couple who I absolutely love working with. They're the sweetest!
