Recently someone asked me what I was looking for in a wedding client. For me that has always been a difficult question to answer, it’s more a feeling than verbal description. I know what I am looking for when I am speaking with a potential client on the phone, or interviewing them in person, I can “feel” if there is a connection. My potential clients may not realize this, but, during our meeting, as they are interviewing me to be their wedding photographer, I am interviewing them. I am looking for that “good fit” with my artistic style and vision of what I want to create. Why? Because wedding photography is a co-creation, a product of the artist’s talent and the client’s life on their wedding day. A great client is one who will take a creative journey with me, be just as excited as I am to go that extra step to create something special. It benefits us both, I expand and advance as an artist, and they have a beautiful art piece that is very much unique and “them.”
