So you want to shoot weddings?

I have never had to experience an unhappy bride, groom or family (fingers crossed) and hope I never will. Never had a Groomzilla like this.

I make sure I have covered everything with the couple so they know what to expect and know what they are receiving. That's why I think it's so important when I meet a couple I need to determine if we will be a good fit. Yes I also am picking you. I want to be able to work with you. Usually if I don't think we are a good match I will refer the couple to another photographer who may match their needs better. More on that in a later post.

I just wanted to post this story as a reminder for myself and other wedding photographers to make sure your couples know what they are getting and what to expect. Shooting weddings is not for the faint of heart.
