I’m often asked, “What does OneNine mean? Where does it come from?” It comes from a passage of scripture that reads:
The heavens proclaim the glory of God.
The skies display his craftsmanship.
Day after day they continue to speak;
night after night they make him known.
They speak without a sound or word;
their voice is never heard
This phrase drives me throughout the entire process of serving you. My team and I desire to create images that speak without using a sound or a word. We want them to speak of your love for one another. We want them to speak of your relationships with your parents, grandparents, siblings, friends. We want them to speak of the little quirks and sentiments unique to you both that will hopefully be as true on your 55th wedding anniversary as it was on day one. Portraits are nice and we will still take those, but images that tell your story as they hang on your walls are even better.
IMPORTANT NOTE – I’m currently in a season of my career where I’m only willing to take on 10 or less weddings a year. I still love capturing weddings and serving couples but the driving factor behind that decision is twofold. 1 – I want to serve my clients to the best of my ability and it’s easier to serve 10 couples incredibly well than it is 30+ which I’ve been used to for years. 2 – I don’t want to miss out on this unique and quickly passing phase of life where I need to be as present as possible, especially on the weekends, with my family. Because of those two factors, I want to make sure that every opportunity I say “yes” to is the best fit between my clients and I as well as my goals as a husband and father.
