I finally meet Joe!

April 22, 2009 by Peter 

My clients are very special to me and getting to know them is something that I feel is very important, especially when it comes to weddings and the associated getting ready shots where we are often allowed behind the scenes. For a bride, that is not ideally the first time you want to be meeting your photographer! No, instead I prefer to try to get to know my clients beforehand which lets me learn about their personalities and then try to bring those personalities out in the images. The best way I can think of to do that is to spend time with them. That and I check out their wedding website which many of today’s brides are putting together. Very cool indeed!

Tonight I had the pleasure of grabbing some dinner with one of my brides, Kate, and her fiance, Joe. I was promised that I would be shown some of the best pizza around and boy was I ever! I met up with Kate and Joe in Port Jervis and they took me down to Len and Jo’s where we had a great time hanging out, discussing their upcoming wedding, bachelor and bachelorette parties, along with enjoying some awesome pizza! It’s not your typical NY pizza that is for sure and it’s worth a trip to check out Len and Jo’s.

It was also the first time that I had the opportunity to meet Joe because he was never able to make the consultations. For a minute I thought Kate may be making this whole wedding thing up, but she assured me that Joe did really exist and tonight I got to meet him in person and not just through Katie’s wedding site. What a great guy, I am so happy for these two and I look forward to shooting their wedding in the fall.

Thanks again you guys!

Great people and some great pizza!

    Hi Peter!
    Thought your notes captured our daughter and her finance. Glad you enjoyed the pizza. Thank you for offering personal service. I am looking forward to sharing this day with Kate and Joe and from what Kate says you will give them something to build their dreams upon. The scenery on their honeymoon will also be great for photos. Do you travel with the wedding couple? No, just a joke. I love photography, can’t wait to see what your eye sees.
