We Love Our Photos!!
Finding a photographer took us forever, we were SO picky when it came to this because we knew our photos (and video) would be what kept the memories of the day alive for the rest of time. We were looking for a very specific style that I don’t even know how to describe but Wild Trail ticked all the boxes and we fell in love. Brian, one of the owners of Wild Trail Studios, was great with communication and SO friendly! Our photographer for the day off was Autumn and oh gosh, we loved her! She is so incredibly sweet and kept us on track throughout the day when it felt like we were just falling behind and losing time. As soon as we got to the venue (girls were on time, guys a smidge late) it just felt like time went on turbo speed and I started to get a little frazzled that I didn’t know what I was doing but Autumn did great at reassuring that things were just fine! She has an amazing ability to catch things on the lens beautifully and guided us through natural poses all day. She wasn’t afraid to redirect us when needed; for example, after our first dances we almost went right into another dance but Autumn pulled us outside instead and thank goodness she did because right when we walked out to where we were doing photos the evening sun perfectly hit below the clouds that had been covering the sky all afternoon. She got us the most stunning golden hour photos that we would’ve totally missed had she not taken control. We’re just so happy with her work. Brian does the editing (from what I understand haha) and we love the beautiful photos we got - literally hundreds! I don’t remember the number but I think like 800+ we went through in our portfolio! I’m so hypercritical of myself in photos; I really wanted photos I’d love but if I’m being honest I totally had anxiety I’d hate them all. Amazingly, the reality is there’s plenty that I am so excited to have printed and displayed in our home all because of these amazing folks! There are a few photos I wish had been edited (you can see my boob tape in a tossed over his shoulder picture, and my skin texture/makeup in the close up bridal shots is a bit TOO clear lol) but I think that’s on me for not asking after the fact when seeing them as I believe they offer additional editing (unsure of cost) if requested so I certainly don’t count that against them, just mentioning to encourage others to be braver than myself because there was no reason for me to have anxiety about asking and foregoing to do so with how great this crew was to work with. Absolutely would recommend Wild Trail Studio and Autumn, wonderful all around!!!!
