What an absolutely incredible experience with Hilary and Sarah at our wedding. If you're looking for the complete package....this is it, people. Now I understand the photo-world term 'investment'; participating with professionals in their creat...ive element, experiencing their commitment to their craft...it's a beautiful thing. We knew that we wanted a photographer with a creative flair (finding the beauty in the moment, rather than posing portraits with forced smiles). As explorers, we sought out someone adventurous and easy-going. As an artist, I sought out someone whom could capture the details of our day (a memory captured on film). As realistic adults, we were also seeking someone whom would work with our limited budget (she has a variety of photo packages and worked with us to find the best option for our event). We found these things (and so much more) in Hilary. Both she and her fabulous second shooter (Sarah) went out of their way for 'the shot'; from hiking a mountain peek, literally getting all up in a tree, then all down in the tall grass, even holding my parasol while I got strapped into a zipline (...o yes)....now THAT is dedication. Their sense of humor and appreciation for all things quirky and nerdy made *everyone* feel comfortable while flooded with emotions (I'm usually extremely self-conscious, but these ladies made me feel so at ease and comfortable in my own skin....and a corset). Collected, organized, imaginative, thoughtful, resourceful, experienced, ingenious, punctual, and certainly flexible. Our album preview made me gasp, absolutely brilliant compositions (framing, lighting, angling...AHH! I love it!). We're so thankful to have been able to work with this skilled professional.
