A Great Monday for Me!

Yesterday I was at the office editing…editing…editing…(one of the less glamourous tasks for a photographer) when the little mail icon on my computer informed me that ‘I had mail’.   I had an email from Grand Strand Bride, with one word in the subject line. COVER.  Huh?  What??  I have been working with GSB on an article about some of the new trends in wedding photography, but that really had nothing to do with the word COVER.  I opened up the email and read these words:“…..We picked the attached shot as the cover for the summer edition. Congrats! The editorial board was unanimous in their decision, and it’s an awesome shot.”Well.  You could of knocked me over with a feather.  I was in shock!  I had this same feeling at the same time last year.  A shot of my beautiful bride Candice Locker, was selected for the cover of the 2009 summer edition of Carolina Bride magazine at the end of my first year in business.In an area filled with many talented photographers, who take so many beautiful images, it is such a huge compliment that a shot I took was selected for the cover of our local magazine for brides.  I am also overwhelmed by the letters and posts of congratulations I have received.  Thank you, all my friends, for your words of support.  It means a whole lot to me.Grand Strand Bride editors….  you saw the beauty and love seeping from Angela and Bryan in the same way I did, and I am so deeply honored that you were able to see it in my image! Jerry…as in Ghionis…. you really helped me to ‘see’ the romance.  I’m getting closer every day 🙂
