There is absolutely nothing better than working with clients who completely trust you.  Clients who look to you for your expert opinion and advice.  Clients who give you time to create and trust that you know what you’re doing.  Clients who just let you “do your thing”.  These are the types of clients I seek out as a wedding photographer because there is nothing more inspiring, more motivating, more amazing than knowing that your clients trust you and your vision for their wedding day.

Amazing things happen when you completely trust your photographer.  They feel the freedom to CREATE.  They feel the freedom to INNOVATE.  They feel the freedom to try something new.  This is when the magic really happens.

My biggest piece of advice for couples is to find a photographer whose style you like, whose personality makes you feel at ease, and maybe most importantly – a photographer who you trust.  Giving your photographer the freedom – and time – to create on your wedding day is so important if you want truly authentic, one-of-a-kind images that you’ll cherish forever.  All of my very favorite images have come on days where my couples completely trusted me + my vision, gave me creative freedom to choose the best locations, continuously asked me for input throughout the process, and maybe most importantly, gave me the TIME to create those images by doing a First Look and allowing me to build their timeline around photos.

To prove my point, here are some of my favorite images to date… all made possible by amazing clients who trusted me and my wild ideas.  Thank you for agreeing to go off-site for photos on your wedding day, allowing me to find the best light + new locations along the way, for doing a First Look so we have plenty of time for photos, for believing in me and trusting my vision for a photo, trekking through tall grass and getting on boats and whatever else catches my eye, for walking a little further “just to see”, and for not bogging me down with crazy shot lists and Pinterest boards of photos to recreate.  You all make my heart skip a beat and I hope the resulting photos make yours skip too!
