<p style="text-align: center;">&#8220;<strong><em>Hi Jocelyne,</em><em></em><em></p>
<p>I  wanted to tell you that we watched the DVD (it was the first  thing we did when he came home), it was great! You two truly did an  amazing job capturing our special day and we cannot thank you enough! We  could not have imagined having anyone else with us on our wedding day,  you build a great relationship with your clients, to the point that it  did not feel like you were another service that we purchased, but rather  you were there to have a good time with us. Everyone has had nothing  but good, no wait, GREAT things to say about the pictures!</em><em></p>
<p>We can&#8217;t wait to start a family, this way we have an excuse to work with both of you again!</em> <em>&#8220;</em></strong></p>
<p><strong>Thank you,</p>
<p>Andrea and Nik</strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="color: #800000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>There is nothing like getting an email like the one below first thing in the morning.  Thank you Tanya!!!!</strong></span><br />
</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong><em>&#8220;Good Afternoon,</em></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong><em>I just wanted to drop a quick line to give you huge kudos!!  I found out about your company through my family&#8217;s photographer, Studio G.R. Martin.  I have seen your name pop up on blog posts a few times and decided to check out your website.  Fantastic!!!!  As a lover of photography I enjoy seeing new ways to shoot, and love how you are always thinking outside of the box.</em></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong><em><a href="http://www.martinphotography.ca" target="_blank">Guy, Julie &amp; Joelle</a> are pros at the crafts of photography, art, innovation, and imagination.  Each of the images that they produce are perfectly thought out, orchestrated and prepared.  I see many of these same qualities in your work.  Each of you know how to put people at ease, make the shoot fun, relaxing, like a day out with friends.  This is why you are all able to capture such great images, and why you all have customers that will come back to you time and again for all of life&#8217;s important moments (as well as moments where we want to feel good<br />
about ourselves).</em></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong><em>Having decided a few years before our wedding who we would like to have do the photography (<a href="http://www.martinphotography.ca" target="_blank">Studio G.R. Martin of course!!!</a>), we would occasionally look around at other photographers to check out current trends.  Nobody was ever up to the same level of artistry, mastership and sheer joy that you can find in photography.  And some were charging the same price or more for a significantly lesser quality image. Seeing your images beside those of Studio G.R. Martin, I know that true beauty can only be captured be a select few.  A Master Class.  Other photographers should look to you both for inspiration and to rediscover the heart that is required for stunning, timeless photography!!!  Thanks to you all, I am reminded why I love photography and though I may be an amateur I will continuously look to the Masters for tips on how to improve.  Thank you!!</em></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong><em>Should you ever be in this area, I would be honoured to have a session with you or you and the Martin&#8217;s!!  Take care, keep up the good work and thank you for capturing life&#8217;s perfect moments.&#8221;</em></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong><em>Cheers,<br />
Tanya Baxter</em></strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><span style="color: #000000;"><strong>It&#8217; s funny timing as well, I just started reading &#8220;<a href="http://www.amazon.ca/How-Win-Friends-Influence-People/dp/0671723650" target="_blank">How to win friends and influence people</a>&#8221; by Dale Carnegie and I&#8217;m on the chapter about showing appreciation to others.  I think this one counts.</strong></span><em><br />
</em></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Woke up this morning, grabbed a coffee, and read my first email.  WE LOVE getting emails like this.</strong></p>
<p><!-- .hmmessage P { 	PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 0px; PADDING-BOTTOM: 0px; MARGIN: 0px; PADDING-TOP: 0px } BODY.hmmessage { 	FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Verdana } -->Dear James and Joce,</p>
<p>As you know we are expecting our 2nd child at the  end of May, I started to have some pre-nesting urges and decided to clean out the  closet in the babies nursery.  In doing so I came across the furi album from the  wedding, I had to take a moment to look through it.</p>
<p>I was so blown  away by all the amazing images that were captured, I had to catch my breath at  times because they were all just so beautiful.  I truly feel like the luckiest  person, because I honestly feel like I have the most stunning wedding photos  ever captured by another human being.  I personally think these wedding photos  may have pushed you past being just a photographer and made you an almighty  photo god.</p>
<p>I had to take the time to let you know again, how truly  thankful I am for all the hard work you did to make my day the most memorable of  days.  I couldn&#8217;t have put a price tag on the images you captured in Jamaica,  nor can I express how much they mean to me.</p>
<p>I can not wait to see  the family shots you will take when the new addition arrives.</p>
<p>Sending  both of you a million thanks</p>
<p><em><strong>Sarah Coutu</strong></em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em><strong><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-3830" title="Sarah Jamaica Wedding" src="http://www.hodginsphotography.com/site/wp-content/uploads/2010/01/sarah1.jpg" alt="Sarah Jamaica Wedding" width="680" height="464" /><br />
Sometimes you are not just hiring a photographer to take pictures at your wedding, sometimes, you are investing in a photographer  to capture the most important moments and events for the rest of your life.</strong></em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>Congratulations again Sarah &amp; Luc, we look forward to documenting this next stage in your lives.<strong><br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><em>&#8220;Dear James &amp; Jocelyne</em></p>
<p><em>No one person can walk into our home without  unknowingly gravitate towards our portrait.   It’s not just the image, the layout or the details.  You can feel the emotions and the mood that  me and Josee were feeling at that exact moment. I love the reactions when someone looks at it for  the first time.  I guess when people are  used to mediocre pictures from department store photographers; it’s effortless  to be in awe at true quality.  As for me, it’s my only life.  Moments come and go fast these days.  I will always invest those few extra dollars  to capture history the way it was meant to be seen.  Anyone who is of a different opinion simply  has to walk into our home to experience the magic.</em></p>
<p><em>You truly are a master of your  art.&#8221;</em></p>

We photographed Al &amp; Josee on the beach while we were photographing a wedding in Cuba and they just picked up their 20&#215;30 wall portraits consisting of this image and others from this session, and also 20&#215;30&#8242;s of images from <a href="http://www.hodginsphotography.com/2009/07/30/sudbury-miner-and-his-dog/" target="_blank">this session</a>.  These 20&#215;30 Canvas Gallery Wraps look AMAZING!</p>
