“A good wedding photograph will reignite the feeling that it records.
It will trigger the other senses;
make you recall the sounds or the smells.
Couples say that the day goes by in a blur,
it’s our role as the photographer to bring things back into focus.”
- Lisa Devlin

One of my missions is to increase awareness about 'The Photographer as an Artist'. Like all other Artists, a Photographer has a gift to see things others may not. To have a point of view and a talent for capturing life's moments. The Photographer will unveil the story and give the viewer a narrative. The size of a Photographer's camera or the amount of money they have spent (loans - credit - cash) on their equipment, accessories and toolbox does not always equal magnificent work. What counts is the art; the eye.
I have stood beside wedding guests who are taking snapshots with $10,000 cameras while I create with a $250 compact pro camera or pro mobile phone. I have never been disappointed (nor have my Clients) by the outcome of the images.
As a natural-light, candid, cinematic/documentary style image maker, I promise you my best talent.

I currently shoot with a camera that, in my opinion, is a giant in imagery output. I proudly selected the exceptional Pentax K-1 Mark II. One of my first loves as a teenager was a Pentax 35mm film camera. The love affair continues today.
If you long to be a Photographer but are lacking confidence or are embarrassed by your toolbox, I urge you to get going. Don't wait. Get busy shooting. Photography is a verb. (and an art)
Finding the Light,
Patti
