During the early days of our wedding planning, someone advised us to hire a photographer we like as a person because we will spend a lot of time with them. Aside from being absurdly good photographers, the team at Ombre quickly became our friends, our personal assistants, and even our firefighters when something didn’t go as planned. They kept our energy up during long days, they moved with empathy, and they made it so easy for us to be ourselves in front of the camera. Our families and friends had a blast with them around, and because of their amazing energy, people felt so comfortable moving freely, even when they knew a camera was pointed their way. I suppose this is because, by the end of our wedding week, they felt just like family. They are a special mix of talent, vision, and bighearted people with a passion for what they do. Since our wedding is over, I suppose we’ll just have to come up with new things to celebrate so we can keep hiring them!
