Funny story about Nicole and Mike  (or Mikey as I remember him). I met the Avezzano’s 16 or so years ago and would occasionally see them around. I don’t think Mike knew I was a wedding photographer. But not many 10 year olds would. So when it came time to plan his wedding, Nicole told him she had a photographer in mind that she wanted to use and showed Mike our website. “Wait, I know that guy”.  I was shocked to see Mike show up at the office for our consultation but was so happy that they were considering me after all these years. Another connection was made when I found out that Nicole was a Larkin. My wife Catherine’s family has been friends with the Larkins for 50 something years.  So at this point I had to do this wedding!

This is what I love about shooting weddings. Connections made years ago are quickly renewed and it is like old times. Everyone knows everyone and that just makes my job easier.
