Eagleye Productions will be at the Hamilton-Halton Spring Wedding Show 2013

What is the #1 piece of advice you would give to couples planning a wedding in 2013/2014

A: My number one piece of advice for couples planning is that ultimately remember why you are there getting married…to be with your partner and the details are important but not the “be all end all”! Just don’t forget the reason why you are getting married and when it is all over it will be well worth it.

Eagleye Productions will be at the Hamilton-Halton Spring Wedding Show 2013

Eagleye Productions will be at the Hamilton-Halton Spring Wedding Show 2013

Why is it important for brides and grooms-to-be to shop locally for the wedding products/services?

A: It’s important for brides to shop locally because it provides your local businesses with business and is a way for you to invest in your local community. Ultimately, if you invest in your local businesses for your products and services, it keeps the area alive and continues to serve you for all of your needs

What would you say has been the proudest moment as a business owner in the wedding industry?

A: One of my most gratifying moments is when the couple I’m investing in accepts me as more than just their photographer, but as a friend and we continue our friendship beyond the wedding day. A wedding is one of the most important days of your life and investing in the right photographer will allow you to re-live and remember those stories for many years.

What will you be showcasing at the Hamilton-Halton Spring Wedding Show 2013?

A: I will be showcasing Eagleye Photography and I’m very blessed that I will be able to showcase my passion for photography through my work and educate brides in what they would be asking photographers and know their rights as a client in this industry. At Eagleye Photography, our business is investing in people and we are blessed that we get to do that through photography. Educating our clients is just as important as shooting the wedding day.
