There may be a chance to work shoulder to shoulder with great and successful personality. Unfortunately I have not yet had that chance with Richard Emmanuel, the photographer based in Toronto. But I have read an article on wedding photography in Ottawa Citizen on June 25, 2008. Big portion of that article was based on an interview with Richard.
Although he is making point about approach to wedding photography, everything he said may be equally applied to wedding videos. Just few quotes:
“A lot of people want to live like rock stars. [A wedding day] is their chance to do it for a day. My brides are all princesses for a day. I help make their dream come true.”
He likes the idea that the pictures may stay in the family for generations. “I capture the milestone moments.”
That’s the key, helping the marrying couple to make it a day of a celebrity life and capture it for generations. Apparently it ensures Richard Emmanuel’s solid booking for 18 months to two years ahead and a healthy compensation for a hard work.
