The very first step of the TM Grey Photo Wedding Experience is Chapter One: Love At First Sight. This happens after an inquiry for a wedding comes through. After I verify my availability, we agree to meet via Zoom (thanks, COVID) for a 30-minute session. In this session, I go through the process and talk about what a wedding looks like with TM Grey Photo. In addition, I get to know you and your partner better.
I call this first chapter of our photographer-client relationship Love At First Sight because it’s essential to vibe with the person telling your love story. As a wedding photographer, I am there with you, from putting on your shoes to taking them off after grooving on the dance floor for a few hours. When everything is said and done, your wedding day is just that, a day. Albeit one of the best days of your life, it goes by very fast.
All that planning, time, and money that went into getting up in front of your closest friends and family to profess your love flies by. What do you have left? Photos (and hopefully video) that tell your story so you can share them with everyone and look back on them with smiles and laughter down the road. Photos to hold onto when your loved ones leave this realm.
Connecting with your vendors, from the florist to the caterer and especially the photographer, is essential. The more we relate, the better I can understand your needs and wants and capture your special day better.
Meeting with multiple photographers? Great! It’s essential to understand your options. The most important thing for me is that you walk away feeling like all your questions have been answered and that we got to know each other better.
After we finish our first chapter, onto chapter two.
