Please provide a link to a FULL wedding gallery. Your resume WILL NOT progress without samples of your work.

We are looking for wedding experience; your WEDDING WORK shows technical and creative excellence in multiple lighting situations. Please do not include: student projects, TFP models, concerts, or instagram influencer photos. We are looking for professional WEDDING work presented in a professional gallery, such as Pic-Time, Pixieset or Smugmug spanning a WHOLE wedding, essentially a gallery that you would deliver to wedding clients; this would not be highlights or your best work from a wedding but the whole thing. The reason for this is we are looking at your wedding gallery for quality from the beginning to the end of the day. Please include the link here:
