In the summer of 2007 I received a call from a bride whose wedding was on my schedule for later that fall. While there is nothing like the joy of a soon-to-be-bride planning her wedding, I quickly determined from her tone there was a reason for concern.
I wondered if the wedding was cancelled or perhaps postponed. But it was worse. Her mother had become terminally ill and probably would not survive to witness the wedding. While the original Fall wedding date would remain, a special ceremony would be held, and she wanted me to take a few pictures and put them on a disc so the family could make its own copies. Only close friends and family would be there.
While it was difficult for her mom to speak, the joy in her eyes and the smile on her face said it all. We were witnessing something special. It was at this precise moment I realized how fortunate I was to be a wedding photographer. When the ceremony was over and I was driving home I said to myself, this is why I love what I do. Later that week I returned to the home with the disc of all the images. The family was delighted. In our line of work a thank you is okay, but the look in your eyes says so much. I knew I had done well but I had one additional special surprise for the
family. I presented them with a 20 page album of the ceremony. Words could not express their gratitude. And you know what? They didn’t need to. How did I arrive here? While I have loved taking pictures all my life, in 2003 my good friend, photographer Jesse Josleyn reviewed my work and said, “I see something special in you.” He asked if he could be honest in his critique and I said yes.
Not expecting the brutal beating of my photos, it was the moment that changed my life.A year earlier I had been laid off after 15 years in the business field, and decided to pursue my love of photography as a career. With Jesse as my tutor and making the switch from film to digital I had realized my true calling. I was put here to create wedding love stories. I haven’t worked a day since.
