Louisiana Wedding Photographer Rose KeeHow did you get started?
My father was a part time photographer in West Virginia and Florida so he would do weddings and Arial photography and art pieces to enter contests. We also had a darkroom in our home where is did his own processing. So as a child I was around the art and his work. My first camera was an Agfa point and shoot at the age of about 7 and one of my first photo shoots as a child was of Disney World when it first opened. Yes I am that old. While In North Carolina I started taking photos with a Nikon 35 mm film camera at horse shows and events thought out the south. From there things just took off.

Meet Marci Curtis – Michigan Wedding Photojournalist



Marci Curtis is one of our newest members out of Michigan! Marci shared with us a little background about herself and how she got started, her advice for photographers just starting out, and what she loves most about wedding photography:

Michigan Wedding Photojournalist Marci CurtisHow did you get started?
I started working for the local newspaper right out of college at the Ann Arbor News shooting a lot of football. I then worked for the Associated Press for over six years covering two presidential primaries. It turns out that was a great training ground for shooting weddings. It made me find creative ways to shoot and tell behind the scenes stories at events that often had access issues and might look on the surface to outsiders as “repetitive”. They were also usually at places with terrible lighting. I didn’t shoot my first wedding until I’d been a photojournalist for over 6 years!
