Grooms 2 Smile


We have wonderful clients, outstanding brides but we don't say nearly often enough that we love our grooms too!

They might start out our relationship together with less than enthusiastic responses for having their photo taken, but by the time we get to the wedding day------ they are fully on board!

We tell our brides that when it comes to getting their fiance to enjoy being photographed, we do have a few tips:

  • try to have more than one engagement session scheduled
  • let him choose his own 'look'--- unless it is holey cut-off jeans and a nasty t-shirt!
  • work around HIS schedule
  • let him pick his favorite photos from the session and have a few made for his desk and/or wallet
  • make sure that the sessions are FUN
  • How about a destination? We always suggest coming to see us and then going to one of the great local restaurants or pubs in the area
  • do not be afraid to mention that the studio is located a few doors down from Square One Brewery! Beer is a great equalizer!

I don't know why it is that women like having their photos taken more than guys... but it just is. Regardless, we love our grooms and always enjoy the fact that by the time we arrive at the wedding day, it is all......... well, it is a piece of cake! :)

The wedding show last Sunday at the Hilton Frontenac was great and we enjoyed meeting lots of brides and grooms very much! It was especially nice to meet Lucie, the new Editor as she is just a hoot! Thanks so much to all of you who stopped to chat, we're looking forward to meeting you in the studio very soon---- I promise it will be a lot more relaxing!
