The Moment - Collinsville Wedding Photography

Wedding Day
Photograph by Tom Atwood

There is a moment at each wedding. One that, for a photographer, captures the day. Sometimes there is more than one moment like that. You don't want to miss it. You have to be watching for it. You have to put yourself in a position to find it. But enough about being a wedding photographer. 

This is Patty's moment.

Sisters Dance
Photograph by Tom Atwood

Sometimes a photo doesn't know which way is up. Or maybe the photographer doesn't? That's more likely. I have displayed this image upside-down, right side up and sideways, and haven't decided yet which way is best. Maybe that's because of all the color, flow and movement as Katie Mareing and Amy Suppaslama dance at their father's wedding in Edwardsville, Illinois.
