Looking Back at My First Big Wedding

Here is one photo from my first big wedding taken back in 2007 – two years ago in September. It was a beautiful summer day at the Salt Lake Temple and the next day was the wedding reception in Vernal, Utah.

I know I have improved as a photographer. It is almost painful to look at old photographs, however, at the time I was doing pretty well. I had helped assist other photographers and I learned how they photographed around the temple ground – and I imitated them almost to the nail. I didn’t want to take chances or risk making mistakes.

The couple and the family love the photos and they will cherish them for the memories I captured. To me I look at the photos then as to the photos I take now and I see the milestones I have achieved. I look forward to the photographs I create in the future and know that I will continue to get better.
