Michigan Wedding Photojournalist Marci Curtis ~ The Making of a Wedding Photojournalist
What's YOUR story? Here's mine!
The REAL Marci Curtis …
I've never met an animal or baby I haven't tried to talk to.
I'm a silly person who takes my photography business seriously. 
♥ Giving always feels better than getting.
I spent a lot of time learning to like coffee. WHY?!?! 
♫ Betcha can't hum a show tune that I won't know.
My happy place is in the water. Any kind, any time … 
which explains why so many of my clients end up in the water!
Apparently I look JUST like someone you know!
Be nice, play fair, be curious and you'll be happy. 
My wonderful family makes me all gooey inside.
I still cry at weddings. 
I make up goofy songs about my kids, my hubby and my dog.
Any day I learn something new is a GREAT day. 
So I learn something new every day and life is great!
I'm learning to tap dance.
If I can make it better, I will. ♥
Lived in Europe for 15 years, yet can still only speak baby talk Italian and French.
My Dad was an 
. We moved a lot. 
I've been told by clients that I melt into the background during sessions. Inherited skills perhaps?
High school seniors are the most fascinating people on earth. 
The only thing I can't tolerate is intolerance.
Yoga cures everything! 
I photographed my own C-Section and both my daughter's weddings (but just their small, legal ones).

professional until 5th grade.
• High School: L'Ecole Internationale De Geneve - not as snobby as
it sounds … really!

General Studies) …
majoring in journalism, theater, photography & business.
Not quite as wishy washy as it sounds … really!

finals, Rosebowl, March Madness)
... totally as cool as you might think!
• Associated Press: 6.5 years covering Presidents and presidential
wannabes … by turns wild and tedious.

Today, New York Times,
LA Times, and many, many now defunct fabulous papers.

counting super happy couples!

row!
God, I love my job!
