Bryan Morris – Aruba’s Premier Wedding Photographer

The daunting but very important task of selecting wedding songs during your wedding preparation has now just become a little less stressful.

The almighty Google or any other search engine came to the rescue.

Upon placing a search in google I came up with what seems to be the biggest wedding song resource. Our Wedding Songs.

There are however quite a few websites with this information so if you don’t find anything you like here, (which I doubt, a lot) just Google “wedding songs” and you will come up with alternative sites. Making a proper selection of wedding songs.

Having the right music sets the mood to your event and allows you to express yourself through music.

This has been hinted quite a few times since I’ve been committed to blogging. I’ve dropped a post yesterday and the day before. The wait is over because Aruba is hot like the title says in our local language Papiamento.

Today marks our 5 year anniversary and to celebrate this with you I’ve created a video (Together with my assistant of course) and loaded it up to Youtube.

Sit back relax and celebrate with us.

Hey y’all!

Today marks my fifth anniversary in business.

Looking back it has been five tough years, five educational years, five eye opening years, five years of success.

Many were the days that I thought of throwing in the towel but I know that my purpose in life is to have a positive influence in the business world, locally and internationally. So I don’t really focus on this obstacle in my way but keep my eyes fixed on the prize.

I have however learned so much in this last 5 years, I’m amazed at how much one can learn from life and books in such a short period.

I want to give honor to all those that assisted me on this journey in a positive or negative way. You that had a positive influence I’ve learn how I should be in business and the negative influences I learn that I shouldn’t make the same mistakes you made. I really thank you, you’ve made me bigger and stronger. My brides & grooms, Wedding Planners, Musicians, Photographers, Florists, Pastry Chefs, Chefs, General Managers, Concierge Agents, Security Guards, Mentors etc, etc….

My family for sacrificing a lot to bring this dream to fruition. We’re not there yet but we’ve sure come a long way and definitely heading in the right direction.

Last but not least, God who give me the strength, the wisdom, the patience to keep on keeping on keeping on.

However many times I think of turning back, it’s deeply rooted in me I can’t turn back anymore, this is my destiny.

Looking forward to many more years of business.

Blessings,

In order not to misconceive the term “bridezilla” and get an in depth interpretation of the term I was obliged to consult the dictionary. As these words still ring freshly in my mind; “When in doubt check it out”

Below you can see the definition of Bridezila.

Webster’s New Millennium™ Dictionary of English – Cite This Source – Share This

Every so often this term comes up In the wedding industry. When utilized it’s usually not mentioned in a sentence supplemented by too many nice words. I’m blessed enough to not have to deal with such situation in the 14 years of shooting weddings.

I’ve found this ad online for this show and it looks pretty interesting. I just hope that one of the many Cable Channels will transmit it or I’ll just have to follow it online.

For all you brides preparing to get married or all of you that enjoy reality TV, Bridezillas new season’s premier starts on Sunday June, 1st.

Be blessed,

Bryan Morris

Many times I’m asked this question by couples planning their wedding.

This is one of the most conspicuous questions a couple is instructed by the many wedding message boards or magazines to ask, during a meeting with the photographer.

Just to clear the air a little, I’ll list some of the equipment I use.

2x Canon 1D Mark II (soon to be Mark III)

A variety of Canon lenses.

2x Canon 580 EX Flash Head

1x Canon 550 EX Flash Head

1x Canon 540 EZ Flash Head

A few radio slaves (Pocket Wizards) for my flash, I’m not too fond of working with flash. I prefer to use available light. Learned that from a great photographer friend of mine, Tim Zielenbach, who saw me shooting a wedding with all flash and asked me:”You have so much beautiful light out here that God gave you why use artificial light” And since I’ve tried it I’m hooked. In instances where I have to use flash I rather not use on camera flash, therefore the slaves.

This is just I believe the most important pieces that I carry in my bag as the rest is just really to pretty up your image or make the effort of the shot a little easier.

When communicating with me throw all the technical questions you have my way, I really don’t mind. One little very important question you should ask all photographers you’re interviewing or thinking on working with is: Do you have backup equipment? Make sure that they at the very least carry two camera bodies and a variety of lenses and flash heads. You don’t want them to be shooting your wedding and their equipment start acting up on them and they don’t have any replacement with them or they don’t have any at all.

I’ve heard stories of photographers because of humidity having 4 camera bodies jam on them during a wedding. I’ve had my own negative experiences of cameras going bad during the wedding, but I was happily backed up so I went on shooting with the other. Although it’s a challenge logging all that heavy camera equipment around after hearing of that one photographer loosing 4 cameras it makes me think how much backup is enough backup. I’m therefore about to get the 1D Mark III and then still keep these Mark II’s.

For peace of mind and zero sad stories after your wedding always make sure that your photographer work with backup equipment.

Blessings,

Bryan Morris
