Not sure why to hire me as your wedding photographer? See what my past clients are saying! I was just honored with the “Reviewed on OneWed 2009″ Badge for earning the trust of my brides and grooms!

OneWed Launches Reviewed on OneWed 2009 Program

Top Wedding Planning Website Distributes Reviewed on OneWed 2009 Awards to Wedding Professionals
Chicago, IL – [September 29, 2009] OneWed.com, the wedding planning website with the largest online directory of local wedding vendors and the first-ever wedding planning social network WeddingPreParty.com, is pleased to introduce the Reviewed on OneWed 2009 program!
Today, brides and grooms seek advice from their peers and place a high priority on recommendations from those who have wed before them.  The Reviewed on OneWed program was created specifically to help couples find the most exceptional wedding professionals for their wedding day among the 200,000 on OneWed.

“In today’s world of user-generated content, brides seek out ratings and reviews of those wedding professionals they are considering using,” says Troy Henikoff, CEO of OneWed.  “Seeing what other brides thought gives them confidence in the decisions they ultimately make when selecting wedding professionals. We are thrilled to recognize those wedding professionals who have earned the trust of brides and grooms.”
Understanding that a one-size-fits-all review system does not provide the depth of responses desired by brides and grooms, OneWed reviews are tailored to each of 22 specific vendor categories, from florists to caterers to reception venues. As such, engaged couples flock to OneWed for detailed ratings, valuable answers to their most crucial questions, and robust descriptions of past clients’ experiences.

OneWed reviews also serve as a marketing differentiator among wedding professionals within the OneWed Vendor Network. “Business listings with reviews are viewed 35 times more often than those without reviews-showing the power of reviews and a tailored rating system in the wedding industry” remarked Henikoff.

Find the wedding professional you desire for your wedding day from the over 200,000 local wedding vendors on www.OneWed.com.

I know Ashley, (and her mom and dad), have been patiently waiting to see her amazing senior pictures from this past Saturday’s session! I was so excited to get these edited for them – and since her mom wanted a lot of options, we did some additional vintage and modern edits for them to choose from!

I had such an awesome time with Ashley and her family, touring them around Orlando and dodging chickens and blind pigeons (see the teaser post for some more explanation of me + nature). Ashley is a senior this year at George Jenkins high school in Lakeland, FL.

My fall is filling up really quick with weekend sessions! So if you’re wanting a senior session, make sure you book asap! I’ll be starting to take 2011 seniors soon!

I kept calling this her “Country Album” shot!

Here’s some of those vintage edits I mentioned.

Ashley thought I was really funny. I’m not sure why…. just my overall awesomeness I suppose

Some of the coolest places and colors are right here where I live!

The shot on the left is right before I got hit by the blind pigeon that flew in to my head. Love downtown Orlando

I was in love with Ashley’s dress and the grass. The colors were perfect!

We wrapped up Lake Eola with a little lakeside love!

Love this place

The sun was just above the horizon, and the light was gorgeous for this shot.

She changed back in to her black tank for a couple more casual shots by the saloon.

This really is one of my favorite shots of the day – and it was our last one! We called it a wrap around 7pm!

I love the Wedding Chicks, because they let photographers and brides post their own weddings and features! I always get my brides up there because I love their website! Here’s a little screenshot and link to the Real Wedding of Matt and Susan!
