Fresh off a long hard week, my mind reflects not only on this week, but last year and the many weddings, events and portrait sessions we’ve been honored to participate in. 2009 was a great year for us, one I’ve said good bye to ever so affectionately.
Working hard to make your dream a success, even when you might not have enjoyed the journey until the culmination, reminds me of a couple who’s wedding we photographed back in 2008 in downtown Raleigh at the Long View Center. Reviewing the images, Jennifer barely smiled all day. Maybe it was her nerves: she planned the wedding herself, including responsibility for all the day of coordination. (Note to future brides: don’t do this! I can refer you to some awesome planners and coordinators.) But the recessional meant the hard work (planning, directing, and executing) was all over. And right when it sunk in, a smile all too rare for such an occasion broke through!
Here’s to happy endings! Whether it be the end of a tough week, good year (2009), or getting through your own wedding, happy endings makes it all worth it. And now I share Larry & Jennifer’s happy ending.
