I was browsing your (awesome) site & came across this post about whether to have two photographers. I have honestly struggled with this concept because I feel like it's the common in the industry to either tag team as husband & wife or always have another with you. Yet I do work really well as a solo photographer with an unobtrusive style. I feel very confident in capturing weddings on my own, I move quickly & coordinate events in detail so moments are not missed. I've wondered how to combat the perspective that "two is always better" in my own head & in the minds of my clients. I feel like this helped me realize that it's ok to do what I feel is right for my business, and that if I continue to produce exceptional work & communicate that it's "me" doing all of it... they will get it. Your post was just a breath of fresh air & your honesty is wonderful. I know I'm not a potential bride, but just wanted to take a moment & say thanks! Wish you all the best as you finish out this wedding season! I am a wedding photographer from the Dayton area & stumbled across your work from a friend of a friend’s wedding on Facebook tonight.
