Smile Shoes are important!

I usually wear dress pants, shirt, tie and a nice blazer, but the most important to me are the shoes. I will spend hundreds on a nice formal shoe that is comfortable. If it does not have a rubber sole on it, I will have them replace it with one. No need to go sliding around while on the move. In all the weddings I've done, approx 1500, I have never had one that wanted tux's worn.

My experience is that most, maybe 60 to 75% of the couples I have shot, are no longer married. Sad, but true. It strikes me that with all of the turmoil over gays being allowed to get "married", that it will change everything, should think about the fact that "marriage" today is not what it was 40 years ago. Back then, people took the vows seriously and are still married today. Now the attitude is "Let's give it a try".

On the plus side though, I have had about 25 repeat customers. I have one that I have done 3 times, in fact, the last time I talked to her, I said jokingly that the next one would be on me..... I think I might end up shooting myself in the foot with that comment.


Good Shooting
