“Intimate.  An unveiling.  Two souls.  Two beating hearts.  The first look.”

Most of my clients know my position regarding The First Look.  While I realize that it isn’t for everyone, I do believe that if it is done correctly – with the utmost respect and care – it does become the single most important moment of the day.  It is epic.  Breath-taking.  It is controlled.  It is silent.  It is the release point…to let it all go.  And the most beautiful thing…it is captured.  Documented in the rawest of forms.  The moment is forever yours.

A very special thanks to my friend, Alan, over at Crown Alley Films.  He is a brilliant cinematographer.  I received this snippet of Kate and Daniel’s day early this morning.  I couldn’t resist sharing it with the world!!  Tiffany at Weddings and the City simply nailed it.  Oh – and here is the still version from their big day last year.
