There are common questions that brides and grooms often ask their photographers. I've put a list of these questions with my answers. If you have more questions, always ask!
My photography style is a mixture of traditional portraiture and photojournalism. More importantly, I work together with clients to select the right locations for shots and capture the most important moments.
Taking excellent wedding pictures is about connecting with people. I take pictures to capture moments and memories of your wedding. I take pictures to a story of the wedding that bride and groom imagined and experienced. While I have all the latest digital equipment, my talent is for making people feel comfortable and at ease. My goal is to make everyone look and feel beautiful in the pictures.
I use all digital equipment, though I started my photography career using film. For those interested in the technical side, I use an 8 mega pixel SLR Canon which is compatible with "film camera" lens and filters. For those who do not care about the technical side: This means you'll get high quality, crisp professional pictures!
Professional and amateur photographers are quite opinionated about this subject. I have used both digital and film, and I prefer digital. I have a technical background, including digital design, so I am able to use the advantages of digital to their fullest extent. Some people asked about the quality of enlargements. Since I use a professional grade camera, the digital images can be enlarged to at least a 16" x 20" print and have no pixilation.
Yes. ALL images can be available in color, black and white or sepia (the brownish “antiqued” photographs).
Online images will be available approximately 3-4 weeks after your event; prints can be ordered immediately from my e-commerce website. Print albums are shipped approximately 6-8 weeks after receiving the album order.
Since I am an all-digital photographer, there are no negatives. You will receive a CD with all your pictures, and you can order prints from my online site at any time while your event is still viewable. You can purchase licensing rights to the images (allowing you to have the original images on CD to make unlimited print copies, versus the small images normally supplied on the proof CDs).
Yes. $200 to save your date!
Yes, of course! Take a look at my portfolio.
You will receive AT LEAST 30 album-quality pictures per hour I am at the event; often, I provide as many as 50-60 album-quality pictures per hour. Since I do not use film, there is no limit on the number of pictures I take.
I have photographed over 50 weddings over 5 years.
