The Power of a Photo

Last week Laura and I met up with our wedding photographers, Erik and Victoria Souza, in Boston for our engagement session.  Last night I received an email from Victoria telling me that a few of the photos had been posted to her photography blog.  Laura and I quickly rushed over to the site and then sat there in awe for the next 30 minutes or so looking at the photos over and over again.

It never ceases to amaze me what emotion a nice photo can capture.  It is part of the reason that I have become more and more increasingly interested in photography over the past year or so.  It’s also the reason why that immediately following the wedding I’ll be buying my first DSLR.

There are so many aspects of wedding planning that are stressful.  But, this was one of the best days we had.  Not only was it fun hanging out with Erik and Victoria but it was also a few moments that Laura and I were able to spend together that wasn’t focused around the wedding, work or something else going on in our crazy lives.  I wanted to share some of these photos with you.

So, without further ado….

    I really wish I was that skilled with a camera. What a unique gift, and without a doubt those are photos that will always encapsulate how you felt during this time in your life. It’s fun to see you outside of the social media realm (and without your pirate costume on.)

    Congrats Justin!

    Aw, those really are some cute pictures! I don’t even know you guys but you definitely look happy!

    Wedding planning is stressful, I don’t ever regret that me and my hubby didn’t go the traditional route :) Hopefully it will get easier for you.
