Happy Friday, all! Today I have a lovely introduction to make. World, meet Amanda…
Hello, my name is Amanda Thorson and I’m a wedding photographer.
When I was studying photography I always said the last thing I would ever do is photograph weddings.
I had this idea in my head that wedding photographers were either a) overly romantic weepy women or b) people who weren’t good enough to do ‘real photography’. So now here I am: a wedding photographer eating my own words.
I got thrown into this by doing favours for friends and I found that I loved it!
Thankfully I discovered that there are many really talented wedding photographers out there, with amazing and creative ideas. I’ve learnt from them, but I’m also trying to be myself by keeping things relaxed, fun and a little quirky.
