Jason McKenzie - Thunder Bay Wedding Photographer???

Well, I’m dipping my toes into wedding photography this weekend. I’m shooting my first wedding this saturday at the Prince Arthur Hotel. Jenna & Michel are having a nice intimate wedding and needed someone for a few hours. I think this should be a good way to get my feet wet, and see if I like this kind of work.

I’ve always been reluctant to do weddings, I feel like there’s so much pressure on the photographer. Not pressure from the bride or groom, it’s more self pressure I guess. I want to get things done properly, and there’s only one chance with weddings. So scary!

And there’s so many amazing photographers in Thunder Bay already! I have to produce some top quality work to try to at least match their level. I’ve been doing more family photo sessions lately, so that experience should help me. I’m comfortable with my equipment and getting the settings right. And Jenna has been awesome with giving me the info I need, photos they want, schedule, etc.

So I’m confident in my abilities, but also slightly terrified. Wish me luck!!
