The true value of professional wedding photography
The power of social media is amazing. I posted this image on Instagram recently. When a previous bride saw it she gave me this wonderful testimonial and update (I photographed their wedding day in Devon, England, in 2011).
A post shared by John Miles (@johnmilesphotography) on
“We still have our canvas hanging proudly in the front room. Our twin boys love it! We also have a lot of wedding photos that you took on our special day around the house!”
I feel proud and privileged to have contributed to this couples’ legacy. And I am so pleased my images are on display for the whole family to enjoy. I love my job!
My advice to anyone getting married?
As a professional wedding photographer I try to convey to potential clients the real value of a great set of images of their special day. There is no getting away from the fact that getting married can be an expensive business! But after the flowers have wilted, the cake has been eaten and the dress has been mothballed, great wedding photographs will live on to tell the whole story of this special day. Not just images of the cake, the dress and the bouquet, but the emotions and the relationships. This will mean more to you more than anything else. This is where the skills and experience of a full-time professional wedding photographer make all the difference.
When you hire me you will end up with a comprehensive set of images that tell the story of your day, evoking all the memories and emotions of those special moments. Not just what you look like, but who you are. Visit my website to see examples of my wedding portfolio and more testimonials.
So, my advice in a nutshell? Don’t cut corners when it comes to your wedding photography. Then you and the whole family, including future generations, will be able share the magic of your special day.
