Few people will tell you this, but the engagement process isn't nearly as fun as the proposal or the wedding day...and it's so much longer! In the midst of it all, my wife and I always looked forward to our time with Cam and Chase. From the ...initial meeting to the engagement photos to the wedding day, their presence was always refreshing--and vital in reminding us of the fun side of getting married that gets lost in the tracking of budgets and the deciding on silverware...
The engagement photo shoot served to establish a relationship that made further talks and decision-making effortless. When wedding finally came, Cam and Chase split up to cover our entire day: groom gets ready, bride gets ready, groom yells at groomsmen for playing frisbee when there's work to do, groom and bride meet, wedding party chills over drinks at the local bar, wedding ceremony, wedding party exits church through winding tunnel of love and, of course, the reception. The guys caught every memorable moment of the reception, seen and unseen by us, and yet we hardly ever saw them!
Within no time we had our pictures from the guys, and they're of the highest quality. We've used them in gifts for family, as profile and desktop pics and in decorating our home. As one friend pointed out, "Wow, a lot of wedding pics. You obviously don't have kids yet." A funny comment, but it leads me to a more telling point. Me wife and I will be sure to go to Chase and Cam in order to creatively document the next exciting development in our life together.
