Bridal Expo

Not a fan of Bridal Expo's, but I still do one a year or so. Yesterday was Sunnybrook's Bridal Expo and I like to do this one because it is local and I want to support my town as much as I can. Since I have a hard time bragging about my work, I enlisted one bride and two soon to be brides to talk to anyone that approached them about their experience with me - Dlutz Photography. POW! Didn't take long for Mary to go to work, she reeled the first bride to be in from about 15 feet from the table. Showing off her guest book for the engagement session and how she actually booked all her vendors from last year's show at this expo - so she recommended Baird's Catering and Soundfactor Entertainment who coincidentally were next to me. Then Caitlin started up showing off her engagement monster print that I made for her and soon my table was packed. I actually thought I saw Elvis swing by to take a look at one of my books. Then I saw Amber, another bride to be for me in September came by to say hi and she sent a few of her friends over to the table as she walked around. Honestly, I could have gone home and watched the Gold Medal Hockey game, these lovely ladies had everything under control. Then Heather arrived and I felt bad for the next peron as now there were three of my Angels swarming. So I have to say a BIG THANKS to Mary, Caitlin, Heather and Amber for talking me up - LOVE IT! Also thanks to Andrew, Kyran, Rich and John. Can't say it enough that I have been so lucky to have such awesome people to photograph.
Congrats to Paige for winning my door prize of an Engagement Session - maybe Citizen's Bank Park?
