Have you ever had to ask for a review on your work?  I am unsure how many professions require one to ask for a review,  but as a Photographer asking for a review can catapult me ahead or do some serious damage to my reputation as a creative professional.  Despite the pressure I took the plunge and asked for a review from a wedding couple that I really enjoyed working with.  Here is her review, posted on www.weddingwire.com, of my service:

Julie was amazing. She was professional, flexible and accommodating to our specific needs. She was willing to go out of her own level of experience to do new things! My husband and I wanted to do actual "in the ocean" shots, something Julie hadn't done with her previous couples, but she jumped into it with full force. It was amazing! The photos turned out beautifully! The only advice I have is to have a list of the shots you want and really talk to her, she will listen! I had mentioned a few photo ideas to Julie (that we absolutely got) but missed out on some I didn't think too much of, and i didn't take advantage of talking to her more than twice before the wedding. That said, Julie was the one that asked about specific shots, we were the ones that were clueless. ;) Her personality matched so well with us. So many unexpected "whoops" moments and she just went with it, following us through sand, sea and forest. I mean, the woman walked a good mile with me just to try and find our missing groom! (He got lost, but we found him!). She held my dress, let me hide in her much larger vehicle until our ceremony started, and took some of the most beautiful pictures I have ever seen (no bias whatsoever). Honestly, she was exactly what we needed for our wedding. Sweet, caring and fun. Technically, we found her through WeddingBug but would certainly be looking toward her independent photo services for other future events!

I feel so honored to have the support from clients that the photography and service I provide to them is of a quality that is worth recommending to others.  Here is my favorite photo from that day.
