One moment in a relationship

One moment in a relationship….

Carefully captured.

Storytelling relationship moment - Charlotte NC photographer

We ask ourselves as visual storytellers, ‘what is the story’?  here it is, in a single moment – captured perfectly as Mindy walks down the isle and John sticks out his tongue at her.

I revel in the moment, and capturing this gives me great pleasure – both to work for clients who understand individual expression, and to work so hard to really capture it for them.

There’s a lot of competition in the ‘wedding photography’ market these days, but as I’ve been observing weddings since 2003 – these nuances are easily noticed to my experienced eye.  The WPJA gave me a top 5 in the nation ranking in 2004, and aging has only made me more sensitive to these moments – aware and able to capture them.

An unforgettable toast, makes a reception

Ok – I love stories like this, and I hope the video guy got good audio on this….
Father toasts
So Scott’s dad is giving the toast, and he starts slowing down – saying “I was thinking I would try and find one word that would best describe my son.”
So naturally everyone is one the edge of their seat, as he’s really taking a while – like he’s lost his idea – but then he spits it out: GRAND. Ok, so why draw it out….then he follows up with “I’ve always thought of my son as a graaaand son.” and with that I’d like to present the new couple with this gift; and he pulls out a wrapped box. Beth and Scott unwrap it facing them…and everyone wants to know what was in the box….

Grandson gift
And so Scott & Beth are cajoled by the audience into showing the gift to everyone
Father affection
So amid rolling guffaws, cheers and jeers – dad brings his point home!
Dad love
