A Wedding Photo Testimonial from a Couple’s Mother

Hi everyone, it’s Bill here.

Now, while both Sherri and I have been working in wedding photography throughout Denver and Northern Colorado for many years now, you may notice something about our website. Namely, we have chosen to not have a page of testimonials, and we decided not to for one reason: How can you really tell that what you’re reading is a real testimonial and not just a lot of fluff written by the photographers themselves?

But awhile ago we received an email from the mother of the couple whose wedding we photographed in early August. Both Sherri and I were very moved by the email and we decided to post it here on our blog to share with you.

Dear Sherri & Bill,
I don’t even know what to say. We’ve all watched the slideshows over and over and over today and are speechless! The pictures take our breath away, it’s unanimous. We are thanking our lucky stars that we randomly found you and decided, the minute we met you both, that you would be the perfect choice for creating memories that will last in our family forever.

What you don’t know is that there were several people at the wedding who were going through some pretty tough emotional times. On this night, they were able to put that aside and just enjoy themselves. You captured their joy perfectly and those are the pictures that truly brought tears to our eyes and mean the world to them.

You both have an amazing talent of knowing just what to shoot, how to compose the shots so that they are fresh and different, yet not too hokey. We never even knew you were there… talk about being unobtrusive! And yet, I know you were down on the ground, up in the air, running up and down hills, catching every moment, no matter what it took. Everyone is still amazed at how you were able to post these slideshows almost before the event was over. I guess you’re magicians as well as photographers!

We’ve sent the links out on our Facebook accounts, as well as via emails, to tons of folks. We hope that, when these circulate, it will bring more and more attention to the wonderful photographers we were lucky enough to find.

Fondly,
Julie Hanan
