Yesterday January 11th was a long day. After few hours of sleep my wife Lindsay, Mike Ciarleglio and I set out in the early morning on the icy roads for Stamford, CT where we were vendors at Bosco’s Bridal fair. We took a different approach with our booth, as there were six or seven other photographers scheduled to be there we chose a location that would filter the visitors to us near the end of their walk through the show. We did this because I wanted them to see the other photographers first and I wanted them to see how we were different. We set up a backdrop and some flashes so that we could offer people free engagement photos or just a free picture with who ever they were with. We took their information and gave them ours. Tonight I will upload all their photos to my website and send out a mass email letting them know their pictures are up. If nothing else this will get them to my website and let them see more of what my work looks like than what they were able to see at the show.
Although the weather may have hurt the turnout at the show yesterday if just one bride hires us it will get us one step closer to being the most sought after wedding photographers in CT.
I’m aware that our style is not for every bride but the ones looking for an unobtrusive and artistic photographer to shoot their wedding and produce beautiful story telling photos then it’s all a matter of time and word of mouth till we get the recognition we deserve.
At this point with all the weddings we’ve done, there has not been one single bride, groom or family member that was disappointed in us and for that matter it’s a normal thing for the bride and the bride & grooms parents to hug and kiss me at the end of the night. It only takes a matter of minutes after we arrive on a wedding day for everyone around to forget that we were strangers.
If not for our ability to photograph a wedding above and beyond what our clients expect you will love us for our professionalism, good nature and ease to be around.
