Wedding photography feels expensive, is it really worth it?
Your wedding day is one of those rare moments in life where time seems to speed up and slow down all at once.
It’s the day you’ve spent months, maybe years dreaming about, planning and perfecting, and when it finally arrives it goes by in an absolute whirlwind! You’ll be laughing, (happy) crying, hugging and soaking in every second, but before you know it, the last song plays, the last drink is poured, and it’s all over.
At the stroke of midnight all you’ll have left are the memories. But here’s the thing, memories fade.
That’s why, if there’s one thing worth investing in on your wedding day, it’s a photographer / videographer who can freeze time and take you back to those moments, exactly as they were.
The Only thing that lasts
There aren’t many days in life when so many people pour their heart and soul into making something perfect, just for you.
From your make up, to the flowers, the cake, to the venue and every little detail in between. Your wedding day is a work of art. However, unlike most pieces of art, once the day is done the only tangible thing that remains, the only thing you can hold onto forever are your photos and films.
Years from now when the flowers have wilted and the dress is packed away these images will be your time machine. They’ll take you back to the moment your partner saw you for the first time, to the way your dad’s voice cracked during his speech, to the laughter, the tears, the sheer joy of having everyone you love in one room together.
The People You Love Frozen In Time
It’s not often that you have all your favourite people gathered in one place, celebrating you and your love story.
Which is why this day is one to really cherish.
But life moves fast, and the people you love won’t always be around, and one day these photos and films will be more than just the story of your wedding day, they’ll be a way to see the faces you miss, they’ll bring back the sound of their laughter in your mind and help you feel their presence all over again.
That’s why the person you book to capture your day should be one of your biggest decisions, and potentially also investments. It’s not about perfect poses or trendy edits, it’s about capturing the real stuff, the fleeting moments, the sideways glances, the way your grandma holds your hand, and the way your best mate tears up even though they swore they wouldn’t!
More Than Just Photos
A great wedding photographer doesn’t just take pictures, they tell a story.
Your story.
They see the moments you didn’t even notice on the day. They capture the way you felt, the atmosphere, the energy and they do it in a way that feels true to you, so when you look back, you don’t just see your wedding, you feel it all over again!
DON’T LET THE MEMORIES FADE WITH YOUR DAY
So if you’re going to splurge on anything for your wedding, let it be this! Find someone whose work makes you feel something. Someone who can freeze time, so you’ll always have a way to step back into the most beautiful day of your life.
