When I first began my journey as a newly engaged woman, I knew that I needed to find a photographer that not only understood the vision I had for my wedding day, but would help me navigate the wedding scene and create, Magic.
And just like al...l fairytales begin, with a little faith, trust and pixie dust! There she appeared! Ruby Sandoval – the photography Godmother that viewed the world through the same lens as I. We instantly connected through our shared love of Disney, and our deep love for our house plants.
I had so many questions! What happens now? When is this? How is that? And Ruby did not falter – because you see, a good photographer will not only enact as someone who is simply hired for an event. She did more than that. She provided confidence, answered all my questions, and had a deep understanding of the wedding industry and how things work.
Our first initial meeting, was at a tropical resort – where myself and my then fiancée had no idea what to expect.
She taught us how to pose – and encouraged organic interactions between us. And by golly, this truly gave us a glimpse of what our wedding day would feel like. And the pictures were AMAZING!
Fast forward some months later to our wedding day,
Brides – let me tell you something, your wedding day WILL NOT be perfect. There will be hiccups along the way.
But I can guarantee you, - that Ruby was an incredibly calming presence for me. She made things easy, she helped me trudge through and overall caught the bits and pieces of ALL the love and magic that was happening throughout the day.
Looking back at all my wedding pictures – I can’t help but smile ear to ear, knowing that she captured every single detail of the day my Happily Ever After began.
