Wedding Info

Weddings are my favorite.

The people...
The setting...
The emotions...

The perfect elements to inspire some truly unique, once-in-a-lifetime moments.

My goal as I follow you throughout the day is to capture the emotion of the moment and present it to you in a beautiful way.

I shoot in a portrait journalistic style, which means that for the most part I stay out of the way and record events as they unfold. I usually shoot from a distance- I'm there to capture the day's events, not to be a distraction.

Packages & Pricing

Now you may think I'm biased (and maybe I am), but I won't hesitate to tell you that hiring a good wedding photographer may be the most important money you spend on your wedding day. Think about it...

Picture yourself on your wedding day. You've been planning for months and are surrounded by all of your closest family and friends for one of the most treasured moments of your life. The feelings you have and the experiences of the day are everything you hope for. Everything is perfect (or not!). But it all goes by in a blur...

The emotions and experiences of that day are powerful but they're also fleeting. Having those memories captured and recorded and being able to relive them again and again is one of the few things that may actually be priceless.

I offer three packages- Basic, Standard and Unlimited. If these don't fit exactly what you're looking for let me know and we can create a custom package that's just right for you.

Details

Some of the fine print...

  • The studio reserves the right to use any image for display, publication, promotion, use on website or other purposes.
  • Balance of payment must be received at least two weeks prior to wedding date. This is required to ensure that client and studio have one less thing to worry about on the wedding day. No part of any order will be delivered until the balance is paid in full.
  • The client will get permission from the minister or other officiating party for the studio to photograph throughout the wedding ceremony.
  • In the event of a postponement or cancellation of the wedding contract the deposit paid is not refundable.
  • COPYRIGHT NOTICE: The studio grants permission for client to print and use photographs for personal use. Images may not be sold, licensed or otherwise distributed for commercial use without permission of studio.
