I just received a nice note from Maureen and Chris (August 11, 2007) after they viewed their online gallery for the first time:
Hi Brian!
Your talent amazes me! We have poured over the photos for 2 days now and just keep saying to each other - he really captured US! You took such unique candids - they are just perfect! We are sending an email out today to everyone we know with a link to the gallery so they can view the photos. I am so excited to share them with everybody!
St. Lucia was great - you should take a trip down there just for the landscape photography experience. It’s a beautiful, mountain-filled island with rain forests and beaches and colorful little towns… just gorgeous! When I load my pictures on the computer, I’ll send you the link so you can see what I’m talking about. I would also recommend the Sandals resorts - they are top notch in the service department, and stay true to their word with their hurricane guarantee - we got hit by hurricane Dean by the way - and they are giving us a free identical vacation to the one we were on - so, 11 days all inclusive at any Sandals we choose. How great is that!?!
Anyway, I hope you had a fun time at the wedding. We certainly enjoyed having you there. You are by far the best choice we made for our big day. I had been raving about you for months leading up to the wedding, and now everyone understands why. Several guests commented to us that you were so polite and you never jumped in front of them for a good photo op - you just found a different angle to take it from. We really appreciate that you treated our guests with so much respect! I hope you like to travel, because I have several recently-engaged friends who were at the wedding who I am recommending you to. My friend’s fiance, Rob, who is also a wedding photographer, had a great time watching you work and can’t wait to see the results.
I can’t thank you enough for all you did. You captured our day exactly the way it unfolded, and you can’t put a pricetag on that. Please stay in touch - and use us as a reference!
Talk to you soon - take care!
Maureen and Chris
