When Yemisi and Ayo decided to book me for their wedding, they made it clear they wanted me to shoot their traditional event in Boston. I figured they could always find someone local to shoot rather than fly me in and perhaps save some money. I tried to convince them but they insisted and luckily I wasn’t booked for that date. Apparently, they figured if they liked my wedding work then their traditional event was just important. And I know most couples who do these type events treat it with less priority but not them. Every now and then I try to educate potential clients that these events really doesn’t make a difference to me, I shoot it like I’m shooting my last wedding. So the rest is left up to the couple to do what they think is best for their events in regards to location, planning etc. Enjoy some of my faves from their special day and come back next week for some photos.
Showing some details as I would do for a wedding.
Ayo and Yemisi planned their getting ready so well that I was able to cover them both…very rare for traditional weddings.
Sorry guys, I just had to do it 
Ayo’s Mum and Yemisi…you really need to meet them.
I think I rewarded all my brides this year if they got ready on time with some awesome portraits.
The proposal letter came in this nice packaging
Mom got a bit teary watching her boy getting drilled….can I hear some awwwww
So Ayo went down too fast and far away from the Yemisi’s parents chair, they made him and his boys crawl to their destination Ayo, I hope Yemisi can see what you went thru that day.
Her facial expression says it all
I always look forward to the carrying of the bride
It wouldn’t be them if this didn’t happen..lol
