0.1 Tell us the story of how Marit Williams Photography got started:
I always loved being creative and photography but did not get my start in professional photography until I was almost 30. With the birth of my son came the birth of my business, as cliche as that sounds!
02. What’s your favorite wedding trend right now?
Champagne towers in lieu of cake cutting and brides changing into a party dress!
03. What wedding trend(s) are you over?
The grand march and huge wedding parties, strictly from a photography standpoint!
04. What’s something you wish every planner told their couples?
Take a few minutes for just the two of you at some point during the day where even the photographers are not around. Have a glass of wine together, take a deep breath and enjoy the quiet, it truly does not happen unless it's planned on a wedding day.
(We at Essen totally echo this, you really need to plan a private moment with your sweetheart!)
05. What would be your dream destination wedding location to work?
Italy!
06. What’s your favorite part of a wedding day as a vendor?
The first look and sunset portraits. It’s some of the only times the couples are somewhat alone all day and I love capturing the magic that unfolds.
07. What was something you dreamed of having being part of your wedding when you were younger? Did you still include that?
A small California wedding and a Funfetti-flavored cake...both happened!
08. What’s your favorite place to grab a bite to eat and/or drink right now in the Twin Cities right now?
Colita for a date night and Lu's Sandwiches for lunch!
