INTRODUCTION
DIANA LAKE PHOTOGRAPHY
2020 WEDDING COLLECTION PRICING
Hi I’m Diana! First off, I am so happy you are here and truly humbled that you are considering me to photograph and document your wedding day. I’m not much of a talker about myself, but for the sake of getting to know one another, I will give it a go! I have been a creative person pretty much since I was a lil kid. In college I studied graphic design and loved that everyday I was solving a creative problem and making pretty things. Once I graduated, I was drawn more to photography and my interest in it grew tenfold when I traveled to Thailand and
lived there for a year in 2015. I constantly had my camera on me while traveling and it honestly felt like I was living my best life! I was drawn to not only the artistic side of photography but the human connection that it created for me. Through this medium I have gained so many wonderful people in my life and I get to be part of so many amazing, truly once in a lifetime moments. That in itself is why I love what I do and why photographing weddings holds my heart. Thank you for being here and I can’t wait to connect and hear your story!
02 I A M H E R E F OR YO U.
( B L E S S YOU R S OU L F OR R E A DI NG T H I S NOV E L ! )
Photography has definietely changed the way I see things, the way I remember experiences, and how I translate what is in my head into something tangible and visual. However, it’s not all about me — getting your photo taken is an experience in itself and I aim to make it the best. I love and want to be involved in every aspect of getting you in front of my camera. From your initial inquiry to booking, from sharing bit about yourself to actually shooting, I truly enjoy being involved in the excitement of it all. I believe there are ways for my clients to set me up for success so I can be totally hands off the day of the shoot and deliver images that we are both proud of. I’m not there to run the show — I’m there to ingest, translate, and give back what I see.
I want to make your photos a collaboration between you + me. I love couples that value photography and aren’t just seeing me as another box to check of their list of wedding to-do’s. I see my work as being honest- in that I am always trying to savor for you those “real” moments, the way it actually happened + felt. Candids are definitely where my focus is on a wedding day. If you can be yourself, I will be there to capture the perfect, the imperfect and everything in between.
