Hello! My name is Edye, owner/photographer of Wright Focus. Thank you for taking the time to visit this blog. For those of you interested in my photography, this will serve as a place for you to get to know me a little better. Also, I will be posting helpful ideas and things to consider as you plan your wedding day.
I have been married for nearly 25 years to my best friend, Jerry. He is a performance horse trainer(http://www.jerrywrighthorses.com/) and custom saddle maker. We have a beautiful daughter, Jordan, now in her third year at Wichita State University, with plans to go to law school. She is a talented artist and photographer in her own right.
We share our lives with an assortment of dogs, horses and yes, even cats, that we consider to be part of our family. Cali, a shepherd mix, is also a certified therapy dog. I had the pleasure of taking her to visit the patients at Harry Hynes Memorial Hospice yesterday...you can't help but smile when you pet a dog.
Since you have looked around the website, you have seen that I photograph a lot of horses and horse shows. I started riding and showing horses when I was six years old, and have ever since. When time allows, I enjoy giving riding lessons, particularly to beginners. It is such a memorable moment when the horse and rider start working together as a team.
With Valentine's Day this month, many couples will become engaged...congratulations! What an exciting time in your life! For you guys still considering "popping the question", just a quick word of advice-choose a pretty place for the proposal. She will be telling the story of how and where you proposed to all of her friends and family, and you don't want her to preface it with something like: "We were in line at the bank drive through...". I have photographed many couples at their proposal location, and a lake, fountain, trees, gazebo or any picturesque, scenic area will score big points with your bride-to-be!
On a side note: if you would be interested in having your proposal secretly photographed, give me a call-it would be an honor, and a WHOLE LOT of FUN!
