It might not be in my job title but crisis averter, is a part of my job. Even if you’re type A, and have copies of the timeline to every bridal party member, there’s always bumps in the road. Trust me, I know from experience. Hair and makeup run over time, the limo is stuck in traffic, someone forget their accessories bag, etc.. The question is, who fixes the bumps in the road to get the day back on track?
Surely not you, the bride/groom.
When you’re looking for your wedding photographer, what comes to mind with your wants and needs? Do you want someone to take posed photos, and hide in the background unnoticed? Or do you need a photographer who acts in moments where no one knows what to do. A wedding photographer who knows how to take those crisis moments, repair them, and pretend it didn’t even happen.
I’m invested in your day as much as you, so a no hiccup day makes for a happy married couple, and a happy photographer.
But what exactly can I do outside of the photographs?
I can steam dresses, fix buttons, run back and forth to grab things you might have forgotten, fold handkerchiefs and pin boutonnieres. I’ll make you laugh, make your guest feel welcomed, and included. But I can also rally a tipsy bridal party to take direction or tell your distant family to get their phones out of the aisle.
At the end of the day, you’re going to need someone who has experience in photography, and how to navigate your wedding, that’s just as unique as you.
