…the first (full) wedding: Judy & Jonjie…

So… my “photo talents” were put to the test for a couple that I have known for a couple of years. Judy and Jonjie gave me the opportunity to do the photography for their wedding in early October. I’ll be honest, I was rather nervous because this wedding shoot was technically my first solo job and also a major step in my photographic ventures. But hey, everything has its firsts.

Again I knew the couple for some time now and I know personally that they are rather chill people, but as the day went by and with some encouragement, you could see the excitement through their expressions. Nonetheless, they gave me an experience that I’ll never forget, and I thank them for that.

Some personal notes here…. first time I realized how on point you have to be for a wedding shoot with no one to help you… incase your external flash breaks (which it did!!!) bring an extra (unless you have a rubber band.. haha)… florida october weather is really hot… so much photo editing… and lastly, have fun doing what you love to do

Best wishes for the two of you for the many years to come.
