So what's the big deal with being Certified?

I would say it adds another level of trust with the client.
Your wedding day is going to be one of the most important days of your life. I can't stress how important it is to have someone you trust to deliver the quality images your day deserves.

Those who have earned Certification have:

• Passed a comprehensive written examination measuring their technical expertise.
   
• Successfully submitted their work to a panel of judges for review and approval.

In addition, every 5 years a Certified photographer must renew the credential with continuing education, assuring you that they maintain an unmatched level of expertise and development.
