There are a few things that photographers may not be completely open about or simply may not say much about the subject. Here are a few photographer confessions:
When we receive a new review, we pretty much want to hop in the car, drive to their house, and give them a big “thank you” hug.
When you contact us and only write “I just want to know prices”, we die a little inside. Say hello, share something fun about your day, mention your favorite food – anything. More so, mentioning that you “don’t want to break the bank” breaks out hearts. We have bills to pay, too 🙁
Trusting us with these important memories of your life is a huge honor that we will never take for granted.
No one likes to be “ghosted” and it really bums us out when it happens to us. We would much rather you respond to let us know you’ve found someone better suited for you than to just ignore us.
We may refresh the page a few times after posting one of your photos, excitedly waiting for the moment you see it pop up on your screen. We just can’t wait for your reaction!
No matter how many years of experience we have, we still get nervous.
Referrals are the biggest compliment we can receive!
It really isn’t easy to “just photoshop it later”.
Sometimes a session will make us really emotional. We keep it together while you’re there but always let it out while editing.
As we’re editing, we get so excited and find ourselves yelling, “omg, they are going to LOVE this one”.
We’re so happy for you to have new memories to hang on your walls, but part of us it a little sad that we may end up parting ways after you receive your printed memories. We secretly hope that we’ll continue to be in touch for years!
