Hello friends, how are you?

Welcome to a new episode.

As always, Erika and I wish you the

best for each of you and as you

can see today it is a different format

of video in which, among other things, you

cannot see me because I have decided to

create this video in which it is a

bit of a format similar to a podcast

or something similar, but you are going to

have to keep looking at the screen because

I want to share with you the last

gallery that we publish in peak time and

before it starts, and so as to put

you a little subliminal advertising for those of

you who do not know what is peak

time, peak time is a platform that allows

us to share with past and future customers

all kinds of galleries so that, well, so

that they have, without having to send them

the physical format of a photo, the access

to them, but not to continue talking about

subliminal advertising, let's go a little bit to

the point of this video, right?

Because this past Saturday, a couple of days

ago, we had a wonderful wedding in Orihuela.

Orihuela is a small town or city in

Alicante, near the Spanish coast, the Mediterranean coast,

and we photographed, as you are seeing, the

wedding of an incredible couple, Ester and Jorge,

and well, we had an incredible evening and

well, the origin of this video is also

to share with you the photos that, of

course, we share with the couple, although later

we will show you one by one, but

I wanted to share with you first of

all the gallery that we have sent to

the couple.

This gallery or these, we usually do it

with the vast majority of our couples, I

mean, sending a small gallery to the two

or three days of their wedding, okay?

Of course, sending this gallery to each of

our couples has a reason for being, right?

Well, a reason.

One of the reasons, to call it the

last of the reasons, perhaps the least important,

would be that we send them this gallery

to have absolute freedom when it comes to

publishing.

What does this mean?

That we are always going to, before publishing,

of course, before publishing on Facebook or on

Instagram or even on our website or wherever,

we are always going to send a small

gallery to our past clients so that they

can see a whole visual tour of what

their wedding was like.

And if I said freedom, it is because

if I suddenly wanted to publish this image

on Instagram and later I wanted to publish

something like this, even this one, or why

not this one?

It is an image that is really one

of my favorites, right?

What could happen?

That even the clients could come to think

that all their gallery or all their photos

that we take are of an incredible creative

degree, but I would not want anyone to

come to think that we do not have

photos, so to speak, more everyday or more

normal or more common wedding photography like this

one.

What does this mean?

That despite the fact that, let's see, this

couple, Ester and Jorge, gave us total freedom,

we could do everything we wanted at their

wedding, they hired us for it, they are

an incredible couple of architects who were looking

for something more within wedding photography, but as

you well know, not all couples are like

that.

So showing an anticipation gives us freedom so

that the couple can understand that, okay, they

have all kinds of photos, but the photographer

has come to publish that type of photos,

they are crazy, in quotes, to the couple,

that is not going to matter, right?

And also, what is also very, come on,

very, very important is that when we are

publishing, I do not like that my partners

or my clients can see at the same

time that I publish or that I share

photos, that they see them at the same

time as everyone else, I mean, we always

transmit, and it is true that our partners

are special to us and we try to

transmit it to them, but of course, if

we publish, sorry, if they saw the photos

of their wedding at the same time that

you are seeing you on a social network,

the couple loses their or the couple could

feel that they do not have that affection

on our part or well, I think you

are already understanding me, not getting to publish

at the same time as the rest of

them, because it makes the couple think that

we have not had all the detail that

we would have to have with them or

it is what we think, okay?

Something also no less important is that we

always want to share, for example, the photos

with the couples a few days later and

as soon as possible because, as you well

know, all guests or many guests, sorry, try

to get to pass or get to send

photos the next day to the couple, which

are photographs taken with a mobile phone and

so we try that the couple publishes something

on their networks, it is something that we

send, why?

Because that way they start working for us

and at the end of the day they

start publishing high quality images because if not

in the end they end up publishing, although

they are books of course, to publish whatever

they want, they end up publishing the least

interesting or not very creative photos and since

we get to work and since we get

to send the images to our future clients,

to our past clients, it means that it

is really important that, well, if they publish,

that they publish ours, not before a bad

photo of the mobile phone by a friend

or a boyfriend's friend, okay?

And finally and no less important, which I

think is the most important point of all,

is that we are always thinking about creating

a good experience for our clients or our

partners.

What does it mean when I'm talking about

a good experience?

From the first email to the last email

that we send, we try to make the

couples or our clients live a great experience,

that is, for them hiring photographers is something

really unforgettable, in which from the first minute,

from the first response to the first email

until the moment we deliver all the work

is totally positive for them and ultimately then,

thanks to that, they get us to hire

for future customers or future guests, okay?

I am always showing these images and I

will tell you why, for example, this one

here and it is all related to what

the experience is, because the experience that couples

can have, for example, or in this case

Ester and Jorge, is not just because we

take beautiful pictures of them, it is not

just because we take Esther beautiful and Jorge

also very handsome with his friends dancing, jumping

and such, but it also goes for the

little gestures that we can have throughout a

wedding day.

When I say little gestures I am referring

to this, it is obvious that this is

not a highly creative photograph, technically it is

not complicated to get to photograph, as everyone

will know, but I have already told you

that embroidering an incredible experience for our clients

is the most important thing and we not

only live or not only transmit that we

are going to take some incredible photographs, but

when I say incredible it means artistic or

very creative, but we are talking about embroidering

an unforgettable experience for all guests and their

entire family as well.

In this particular photo, and we do this

constantly, not only in this case as the

parents of the grooms, but sometimes we usually

do it with friends or very close relatives

and in this case I remember that both

the parents of the groom, sorry, the parents

of the bride and the parents of the

groom, during the reception, I asked them if

I could make a simple portrait of them,

they immediately thought, but of us, I say,

of course, separately, if we already have this

one, we already have this one, let's not

forget that they are possibly the photos that

end up printed in the living room of

the house of the parents of both grooms,

but when I am asking for this type

of photos it is because I want that

the next day of the wedding if that

day later in which in the meeting or

in the family dinner that happens after the

wedding or in the or whatever is usually

spoken and I say it from experience because

I have also married, it is and what

who better to calm down or to encourage

even the grooms at that moment in which

the wedding has passed everything has gone very

well and the close relatives begin to talk,

hey, well, how good with the catering, hey,

well, how good with such, hey, well, they

did not work very well, hey, well, that

service and suddenly when they say, hey, the

photographers, how good, how nice they were, how

well they worked, they did not stop moving

all day and it is also likely that

they say and I remember that the photographer

hooked your father and me and he took

us to take a great photo to the

central courtyard of the school and so on

and so on, that is, I mean all

this the next day I mean the boyfriends

are calm relaxed to see that many of

their suppliers worked perfectly and in this case

the photographers we work perfectly and it is

likely that the parents or the guests or

the relatives or the brothers will say to

the boyfriends how attentive we were all day

I mean with this because the bride is

not only going to be happy that she

is taking a portrait of death, the groom

is not only going to be happy because

he is taking an unforgettable moment with his

mother at the moment before the ceremony began,

but he also had two human people who

were concerned about photographing everything, notice that in

the gallery he is not only going to

show a creative photo like the one I

have shown you now of a portrait with

the bride and all this but he is

also going to show some of the great

moments such as the moment in which the

bride or the moment in which the bride

arrived at the church and hugged her husband

or even photographs that we may have better

but for us this gallery is only there

to please our customers among many other things

but the main one as I have told

you is to please create a good experience

and if I tell you this is because

this photograph is obvious that it is not

one of the best photographs of our wedding

but this is this boy that we have

here is the groom's brother and this boy

who plays the violin is the bride's brother,

it is probable that when they see this

they like to see how we have a

photo of the two brothers and as I

have also told you these boyfriends were very

special boyfriends who loved us perfectly and it

is likely that they do not need this

image in this first gallery but because we

are not going to pass it on because

we are not going to share these two

families with them because because it is likely

that these two ladies, the mother of the

bride and the mother of the groom, also

need it and as I have told you,

not only do we work for the grooms

but we also work for the people who

surround the grooms, if someone is wondering about

this photo, this photo happened just when the

band ended, the music band of playing the

grooms told me that they wanted a photo

with almost all the guests who are here,

almost 200 guests, believe me that we were

in a super small space and to take

this photo I had to take three images,

three images taken with the 35 millimeters to

later join them with photoshop with the panorama

maker, no, sorry, with photomesh, so it turned

out very well and I remember that the

groom asked me, hey, but have you been

able to get everyone out because the groom

understands a little photography and saw that he

was using a 35 millimeters and I told

him Jorge that it would be a miracle

not as it has been shoot three photos

35 millimeters and such with which when the

groom arrives to see this photo that he

will be seeing at the moment because we

have sent him a few hours ago I

suppose that when he sees it he will

say fuck until he took that photo with

all the guests in a space that was

practically impossible to take it out, therefore it

is a gallery as you are seeing to

please to calm down so that the grooms

see that they have all kinds of images,

not talking about all kinds of images and

also not talking about our past clients that

they are, that is, Jorge and Ester were

our clients, I am talking about the past,

I mean, it is more than likely that

they will not hire us again, that is

why when we send this gallery we are

very clear about who our clients are for

who this gallery is designed for, but be

careful, I have already told you at the

beginning of this video that we always think

about publishing in getting to publish a work

for but for whom we publish for whom

we publish these images for our future client,

that is, at the moment that we have

already passed these images to our past client,

now we are going to try with these

few photos to attract our future client and

keep social networks alive, that is what my

career is about.

It changed completely but completely in 2013 when

I decided to start publishing what I liked

without thinking about what those boyfriends or past

clients would say and thinking clearly about my

future client in what I wanted to obtain

with this type of images, therefore what I

already started to think that I should publish

only the most radical side and not think

about what to say, okay, I'm also going

to publish this image because I know that

Jorge is going to like it because his

father appears because there is a reflection because

his uncle appears, his reflection and his father

on the right, but do you think it

is a good image if it is but

it would fit in the next publication because

I doubt it because of all these images

that I am showing you all the time

that I do not stop going up and

down of all these images, perhaps the ones

that I like and that is to say

that I like that I see them with

aesthetics to publish in my next post or

in the following days on instagram or facebook

we could talk about that they are this

is probably that it is more

than likely this and this is also more

than likely also even this and it is

also but it is obvious that the group

ones do not either why because because I

do not see it is because the aesthetics

is completely different and of course it is

not obviously who knows I am not clear

but why because I want to show in

my networks something more like this and less

like this does not mean that I do

not do it but this photograph does not

mean that it is not good it is

a great moment but it does not fit

aesthetically with the editorial line or with the

visual line that I have on my instagram

that is why for me it is so

important to fit well with what is to

be published what really with what I feel

identified or where I want to go or

the keys that I want to touch in

my future clients that is why it is

necessary to have that cold blood and know

or be very clear that we want to

publish each of us that is why I

wanted to show you and share all this

knowledge with you in this video that has

been a different format you have not seen

me on this occasion but I think I

have said quite a few things I do

not know if interesting but I think they

can be useful so I do not roll

up more I am going to leave everything

here I wish you a good start of

the week if you have had a party

or a holiday I hope you have enjoyed

it I say this because in Spain we

have had a long weekend Saturday, Sunday and

Monday yesterday, which was a festive day, so

if you have had them, I hope you

have had a good weekend and if not

also so nothing else wish you the best

and wait for you very soon to see

you here until next time friends
