Now that you’re engaged, it’s time to start planning for your big day! There are so many decisions to be made! Who will make your cake, where will you have your wedding, what time will the ceremony be and the list goes on and on! While all of those things are important, I want to share 3 reasons why wedding photography is important and should be at the top of your list! When Brian and I first got engaged, I went online in search of a wedding photographer! I knew that I wanted the cake, the flowers, the venue, the dress and everything else but I knew I needed an amazing wedding photographer! Here’s why!

Photos Last a Lifetime

During one of our visits to Brian’s family house, his Mom pulled out her wedding album! It’s been over 30 years since his Mom and Dad were married, but they still have their wedding photos and album! That is priceless to me! Knowing that one day you will be able to share photos of the day when you and your now husband or wife were married with your children is amazing! I believe that everyone should have professional wedding photos!

Freezing Time

Time goes by entirely too fast! Especially on your wedding day! After months of planning your perfect day, it ends up going by way too fast! I remember sitting in the makeup artist chair on our wedding day and before I knew it, we were exiting the reception for the night! It really goes by that fast! But that is when having a professional wedding photographer is important! Photographs are a way of freezing time. You will get to look back on your photos for years to come and always remember exactly what happened that day! Or how you felt on that day! That is so important!

If you’re on the fence about hiring a professional wedding photographer, I highly suggest that you do! Being able to relive your wedding day for years to come is priceless!
