I've never done this before, show a before & after, but I thought I should show, & explain, just a little of what a professional photographer does. It's not just about picking up a camera and pressing a button, then saying "Here you go!" and done. Nope! Not only do I spend hours prepping (emails, initial meetings, phone calls, prepping gear, purchasing needed items, etc.) and not to mention all the hours I spend on my feet, running around to get the shots on a 12 hour wedding day with thousands of dollars worth of equipment on my back, but people forget that a huge part of my job comes after.
Im going to spend hours upon hours doing all the post work. I go through each one of my hundreds of images to make my visions and art come to life! I work hard to make you cherish your wedding photos. So before you think about entrusting your relative or friend with a "good" camera on the most important event of your life, think about it! I have all my years of experience and knowledge to help you have photographs that will last a lifetime, other professionals as well.
Also, these days almost everyone is a "photographer" simply because of how good newer/cheaper cameras can be. Hiring a professional photographer is the best decision you can make for your wedding, not uncle bob or a craigslist photographer or whoever is $500. Remember, the photographer takes the photographs, not the camera! We photographers charge what we do for a reason! And let me assure you, its worth every penny :)
