This past summer I have really experienced God taking my small photography business to a bigger level than I had imagined. My photography business actually didn't start out as a business at all. It started as a sophomore girl in college enjoying the hobby and creativity photography had to offer. I started out taking nature shots, selfies, detail shots, and doing free portraits of friends. I slowly began having people ask to pay me to take their photos and then last summer I got asked to do three weddings. I was scared out of my mind but I felt it was the next step I needed to take.
The risk was huge! A wedding day is not a time you want to "experiment" around so I watched many you tube videos and asked every wedding photographer I knew for tips. I had many councilors and I truly feel that is what helped my first wedding (and the rest of the weddings) go so smoothly. Here I am just one summer after my first wedding photography gig and I'm starting to feel comfortable and excited about the potential opportunity ahead!
I wanted to showcase a few photos from the wedding photographs I just completed editing! You can view these photos on my Facebook Page. You can also view the full blog post on my Photography Blog . If you're interested in having me photograph your wedding let me know!
Sometimes it's the details that often go unforgotten but are so beautiful.
The bride's first look of herself was precious!
Although thunderstorms interrupted this couples outdoor wedding venue, no storm could stop the smiles and love between these two. The venue was quickly moved inside!
This little guy loved the spotlight. He kept smiling and looking at me until... he hit the cake table. A roar of laughter from the crowd and an embarrassing look on the boy, but the show went on and I had a huge smile on my face :D
First dances with dad and mom are always a tear jerker.
And then broke out into country swing dancing as the crown cheered and eventually joined them on the dance floor!
I had a blast photographing this couple's wedding! Thanks for enjoying the night again with me through photographs :D
GIRL. These are SO good! You have a wonderful eye and are very talented!! I completely understand what it was like to be nervous about shooting your first wedding, I was the same way and it was actually so much fun!!
