Someone once said that “beauty is in the eye of the beholder” and I couldn’t agree more. When I look back on this incredible year and remember wonderful moments in my personal life and all the weddings I went to and photographed it was extremely difficult to choose my “favourites” because I try to figure out what that means everytime I look at a photograph. What is appealing about it? Is there emotion? Is there something funny going on? Is it stunning? Will the bride like it? Will the groom? And oh my what about their mothers? And fathers? And friends?
I obviously want my clients, their friends, their family, my friends and my family to enjoy and love the photographs I take. And I’m not egotistical enough to think that every photograph is beautiful to everyone. Every moment in a wedding is important to me because the day is so fleeting and goes by far too fast. The bottom line is that every wedding I shoot I always want to get better and better at telling their story as I see it happening in front of me.
And with that a final thank you to all of my clients of 2011 for letting me tell their story one photograph at a time. All the best for 2012 – stay in love with life everyday!
