What does a relationship look like #2

What does a relationship look like, if you had to pick a single photo to illustrate yours?
I had to break the rules to get this shot of Charlie, the church rules that is. I think he’ll appreciate the memory more than the church lady appreciates me!
Just to be fair to Charlie, he’s not the weepy type - that was just his wedding after all! Apples were a part of their wedding theme and so I put a few in Charlie’s hands to help show their active and humorous side. The various moments that make up a wedding, are colored each day by the client’s personalities and the personality of their relationship. I always try to make colorful pictures.
So that’s a quick look at a relationship within a few photos, I always try to grasp the multiple facets of your wedding and relationship and more blog posts about what a relationship looks like can be found here.

how do the details that we shoot add up?
how sensitive are we while we are shooting?
Liesl was picking up on the eyes that Christine was giving her man during cocktails. If you care for someone, you know their moods during a party, you keep your eye on them, maybe you give them ‘eyes’ across the room to spice it up, maybe you keep tabs on whether they’re ready to go, maybe it’s the simple things that really show love, and maybe it’s these deeper more sensitive details that you’ll be able to cherish from your wedding photos when you hire a careful and sensitive artist like Liesl. It’s not an earth shattering picture, but it’s one that shows what your real-ationship looks like.
Maybe we need to go to the extra effort of helping you illustrate your feelings for your spouse, by facilitating time for you to find that special spot of being held by the one you love. As we earn your trust, you can give yourself over while we are working with you - and the magic is made.
Sometimes the photographer has to be the ‘bad guy’ and ask you to have a moment to yourselves on your wedding day!
Tomorrow I’m off to shoot an engagement session, and am asking myself and my clients the same question “what does your relationship look like?”
You can answer in the comments if you like - or wait until we ask you when we shoot your engagement session.
