Every year about this time we receive a desperate phone call from a bride that selected an amateur photographer (have heard similar stories regarding other amateur wedding vendors as well) that has backed out of shooting a wedding (every year the reason is different but the situation is the same) and unfortunately although we would love to help and truly feel for these brides we cannot because we are already fully booked for their peak season date.  This happened yet again yesterday.

Brides….this is your WEDDING DAY.  Wedding photos are the one tangible record you will have.  Please do not do this to yourself.  We have heard many many brides cry in panicked desperation.  If you don’t hire us…hire another pro team that has studied their craft, is experienced, has great customer reviews and offers backup assurances (back up photographers and backup equipment.)

Remember in wedding photography as in life in general, you truly do get what you pay for.  Make your wedding day a happy memory not a disappointing stressful one.  The amount you think you are saving upfront I am sure these desperate brides will tell you do not equal the lack of quality, professionalism and stress they later received.

To a Happy Wedding.
