Why we photograph every guest
Recently, we had some clients decide to order a “guest album.” They already had an album from their wedding day that highlighted all of the important moments from their celebration- but they wanted a second album dedicated specifically to those guests who didn’t play an official role in the ceremony and weren’t all featured in the first album. We loved this idea, and were glad to find that we had photographed all 150-ish people who had attended their event. There were plenty of images to choose from and fill up another book’s worth of pages…
We’ve had so many people reach out to us weeks, months, or years after their wedding day to thank us for capturing the important people in their lives - particularly after they have had to say goodbye. This isn’t something people tend to think about when they think of weddings, but we’ve come to learn that memories of the ones we love are something we not only cherish to reflect on good times, but also find comfort in when they are no longer with us. In this way, what those memories mean to us will continue to grow as time goes on.
A wedding is a unique chance to get everyone in your life together all at once, and now more than ever we are learning not to take that for granted.
