Way back in 2008, I got a call from Amber asking if I’d shoother wedding. She found me online, and I have NO idea why she called. I had nothing about weddings on my site – I was a child and family photographer. But I told her I thought I could do it if she’d give me a shot. We met for coffee, and I knew I liked this couple. I have never felt more appreciated on someone else’s wedding day as I did at their wedding. Plus, they are ridiculously good-looking and a TON of fun. Since then, 80% of the weddings and some of the families have been friends of Amber’s and Alan’s. My photographer friends always ask “how can I get an Amber?” And I laugh and tell them to find their own. I have been excited for this day since they got married — you mean, everyone’s not like us and gets pregnant 8 months after their wedding?!?
So when Amber called and told me she was expecting a little girl in November, I did the happy dance! I got to photograph their engagement, their wedding, now their maternity session, and next the arrival of their first-born. And this is why I love my job so much. I love being witness to growth, change, celebrations, and documenting family’s stories — what a privilege.
