When you hire Blackbird, you are getting more than just a photographer. You are getting someone who values family, someone who will go out of their way to ensure that those who are closest to you are incorporated and documented throughout your special day. You are getting a parent who understands how to interact with the children in your life. You are getting a professional wedding attendee who can help with your timeline to ensure you are making the best use of your time so you have time to actually participate in your wedding day. You are getting an expert communicator, who can wrangle crowds of family members to get your group photos done efficiently. You are getting someone who works hard and cares - and this is consistently our same-day feedback by wedding guests, "we have never seen photographers like you", and that is because we simply are not like all the rest.
We took our inspiration from one of the The Beatles iconic songs, "Blackbird."
John Lennon & Paul McCartney wrote this song to symbolize the civil-rights movement and racial inequality, stating "Let me encourage you to keep trying, to keep your faith, there is hope."
We love and believe what this song stands for, what we stand for, and thought it would be the perfect name as we dive head first into a year that calls for justice, peace, hope, and above all - love.
We blend in seamlessly with your family and friends and our most received compliment by guests is:
" I can't believe you didn't know *couple getting married* before, it seemed like you have known each other for years".
You're not getting what feels like a stranger taking your photos, you're getting us. Your hype people. Your biggest fans and supporters. Your personal storytellers, turned friends.
We pour our heart and soul into each wedding, and can't wait to do the same for yours.
