A lot of photographers equate photos to your memories. The reality is that you\u2019ll remember your wedding day regardless of how your photos turn out. Although, your photos might show you a different side of your wedding you didn\u2019t get to see, or help keep those memories crisp and clear. But that\u2019s not the top reason why my husband and I felt that photography was the best investment in our wedding.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Our photos are shareable.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We had some close relatives who couldn\u2019t make it, some good friends who had to decline, and many people that we simply couldn\u2019t afford to invite – every couple will likely have someone important missing from their wedding day. Photos are shareable in so many ways. Facebook, email, a CD in the mail, thank you cards, prints, slideshow\u2026 we have endless ways to share our wedding day with those who couldn\u2019t make it, and reminisce with those who celebrated with us! For Christmas this year, we printed tons of individual wedding photos and handed them out to the family and friends who were in the photos, so everyone has copies of the big day! And at any point, we can print them out again and again.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Our photos are indestructible.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Each photographer is different, but our wedding photos are stored in a gallery that is guaranteed to last 10 years, which we can access via a link. Plus, we\u2019ve downloaded them, stored them on cloud storage as well as an external hard drive, and we have many of them in print, in albums, or hanging on our walls! There are many ways to ensure we never lose our photos, which are so important to us! Nothing else from our wedding day – besides our marriage + family – is going to last forever. Dresses stain and dim, flowers are recycled, leftover cakes gets thrown out. My photos are forever.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Our photos are versatile.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

There are so many ways to use wedding photos after your wedding! You can create a custom thank-you card for your guests, or use them in your holiday cards that year. You can store them in an album, a digital frame, or memory box. You can frame prints, print canvases, or hang metal prints on your walls. You can create endless photo products, like an ornament for your first Christmas together or a cute new phone case with your married name. There are no limits to how you use your wedding photos.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Our photos are timeless.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Wedding photos will continue to tell your love story to friends + family long after your time. Your album will be a way to share with your daughter about how true love feels. Your 50th anniversary slideshow will show your friends that you\u2019ve always been totally and ridiculously in love. Your legacy of an unbreakable partnership starts with your wedding day, and your photos are your evidence. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

That\u2019s why I love wedding photography<\/a> so<\/em> much! I want to leave a client with a long-lasting token of their wedding day. I want to be the one to take images that authentically capture a couple\u2019s story – a story like no other! I want to give each couple a way to share their wedding day with those who couldn\u2019t make it. I want those people to be touched by the warmth of the day just by looking at the photos. I want to help each couple preserve their memories and share their story, forever<\/em>. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n
