I had been praying and asking God to take my business in a new direction by helping me to step onto a new a playing field. He answered my prayer and sent one of my church members my way. She had heard that I started a photography business and she was in need of a wedding photographer. Although I didn't consider myself a wedding photographer, cause hey I only shoot portraits but I was delighted to take the job, because after all this is what I had been asking God for. Now don't get me wrong there was all kinds of emotions going through my mind as to whether or not I was ready. I prayed to God I asked him to guide my hand and help me produce the best images I could. I accepted the job.
The wedding was Saturday October 16, 2010 I prepared myself as I do for any other portrait shoot. Nothing serious. I meet with the bride whom by the way was beautiful inside and out, she and her husband had LOVE written all over their faces. It seemed to me that they didn't just love each other it was more than that, he was their to support her, he helped take away any uneasiness she was feeling, to me she had found her rock. This was something that I saw in them that made remember back when I married my husband. The two of them were so committed to each other and it seemed as if they were mountains that had some how fused together and could not be broken apart.
I graciously shoot this wedding and hoped that I did as well as many of my constituents that I follow daily. I have come to the conclusion that I really enjoyed being in the wedding environment and that I was not out of my league and as I have said before " I am ready and willing to go where ever this journey takes me, while putting all of my fears aside".
Thanks for giving me the opportunity to shoot your wedding Mr. & Mrs. Daigre the two of you will always hold a special place in my heart. Congratulations and I wish you many blessed years of marriage.
To New Beginnings in your marriage and in my business, because I am now ready for the next one.
