What could possibly happen next???? Two storms passing through have left many without power, some of the power restored early yesterday was gone again in the afternoon when the second storm rolled through! We were so lucky to have power at the studio as well as telephone and internet for all but a few hours mainly when we were closed at night. Driving around the city the downed trees, limbs, and debris are everywhere and many still don't have power--- it is amazing! At least the heat has broken today and St. Louis should be bright and sunny with a high in the low 80's. Last night an enormous water main broke near the south part of the city so many people already impacted by the storm had low (or no) water pressure. The road is still closed from 3 to 5 feet of water in the area and the Science Center was evacuated! (Thanks to KSDK for the photo). We cross our fingers that the worst of all this is over for our city!
It brings me to the point that brides and grooms ALWAYS need a Plan B! Our wedding today is to have photography in a park that is pretty well torn up with storm damage and the reception venue has not had power for 3 days!!!! Photography won't be an issue as we always have a plan b (c, d, and e if necessary)---- and the reception says that they will be finding a generator. We have our fingers crossed for our wedding couple.
Brides and grooms always ask the question of photographers "what happens if on my wedding day you become sick, or are in any way unable to shoot my wedding?" Make sure you ask your reception venue what happens if they lose power or the building is somehow damaged on their wedding day. Plan B is always a good idea for all phases of a wedding!
Enjoy the day!
