Wedding Photography Option

We do mostly commercial and advertising photography and only shoot a few weddings per year.

Our Style

There is something special about capturing a bride on her wedding day. We love all the natural beauty of weddings. It's a time when smiles are the most natural, laughter and tears happen simultaniously, and joy fills the eyes. We capture the day as it is. During portrait sessions we do some coaching if desired, but the rest of the time we just have a good time creating imagery and art that tells your story.

Why not get a cousin or friend with a new DSLR camera and thinks they can shoot a wedding?

Because a wedding has a list of challenges that most amateurs are not aware of.

Does your friend know what a 2/3's view is? Can they properly set up a large group shot? Do they know the difference from broad, narrow and rembrandt lighting? Do they have years of experience with a high-tech camera, lighting, and photo enhancing computer software? Have they dealt with complicated lighting situations such as harsh shadows, dark churches, and bad reflections? Do they know where to be at each moment throughout the ceremony to get the best shot? Have they proven their creative abilities in making an album or coffee table book that you will be proud to show off for several years to come? If not, please contact a professional in your area because you don't want to be disappointed for the next 50 years.

I have heard many times people say they had a family member or friend shoot their wedding and are disappointed with the pictures. Please don't let that be you. A fast paced wedding in a multitude of different lighting conditions is not for the amateur photographer with amateur equipment unless pictures truly are not an important to you.

Your wedding is a day you want to remember forever. It is probably the biggest and most elaborate party you will ever through. Why would anyone even think about cutting cost on the only thing you will have to show from your wedding after it is all said and done? Showing off beautiful wedding book, hanging a canvass wrap on your wall, or looking at impressive wedding shots on social networks is often at the center of social gatherings throughout a couple's life.

Even if it is not us you choose, I really hope you hire someone who is not only artistic but also really knows what they are doing and has all the proper camera and equipment to get the job done correctly.
