Have you ever thought about what it feels like to be the client instead of the photographer? On this week's Joycast, I'm pulling back the curtain on a personal experience: my daughter's wedding.

For once, I wasn't the one behind the lens, and let me tell you… It gave me a whole new perspective on what we do as photographers. Here's a sneak peek:

• The whirlwind of planning a budget-friendly wedding in six months (Did I mention it was during hurricane season?!)

• What it was like to let go of my camera and savor every moment of the big day as a mom.

• The emotions of seeing the final photos and video (and how they became the most priceless part of the entire event!)

Plus:

• A fresh perspective on what it's like on the client's side of photography.

• The truth about digital files and why printed albums and artwork become lifelong treasures.

• What this experience taught me about the emotional journey our clients go through when they invest in photography.

This week's episode is a reminder of why what we do as photographers is so much bigger than just "taking pictures." Photography is about love, legacy, and creating something people will treasure forever.
