Sun.Star Cebu - Sun.Star Cebu Weekend
Wedding photography
NO matter how many times I shoot for wedding, every time the bride walks down the aisle and the moment the groom starts looking for his handkerchief to wipe out the tears he tries to hide from the crowd, I still get emotional. It’s in that moment that your saliva starts getting thick and you have a hard time swallowing. The one thing I like about shooting weddings is the relationship you develop with the couple. You sometimes clap more than the guest and almost want to grab the mic and talk about the couple and how inspiring they are to shoot and the love story they shared to you. But you have work to do, and your job is to take photos that will make sense of the most important day of the couple. You get to meet their family and people they consider friends for life. You get to see the drama, sometimes among siblings and relatives, and the excitement and thrill of pulling it through the day and delivering everything that is expected of you. Every wedding is always unique. The challenge is always there no matter how many times you face it. You don’t want to add to the problem. I think that the only way for you to find inspiration in this type of job is to be committed to your client. It’s the genuine effort to make their most awaited day that they have prepared for emotionally and financially be worth every second they well deserve. When you commit and carry with you their story, it becomes a responsibility more than work.
