EXPERIENCE
MY PHILOSOPHY |
I’m sure your mind is racing with all that needs to be planned! It’s
very exciting, but it can also be somewhat overwhelming as you prepare for this huge event in your life. My goal as a wedding photographer is to make this one aspect of the planning process simple. Photography is more than just images; it’s a real part of your day. You deserve beautiful photographs, but you also deserve an amazing photographic experience. When my couples feel comfortable and relaxed in front of the camera, it results in genuine, joyful images. When you look back on your wedding day, you’ll want to remember the moments, the emotions, the details and the beauty - the whole story of your day. There will be details that you won’t remember, or didn’t get a chance to see. It’s my job to capture those moments and details for you to look back through and relive for the rest of your lives together. Your wedding day is an experience from beginning to end, and your photography is a huge part of that experience. That experience should be fun, joyful and natural! My goal is to not only capture memories for my clients, but also to create a positive experience that they will never forget.
T H E P R O C E S S | One way I ensure that my brides and grooms enjoy the best photographic experience possible is through forming a relationship with my couples. A bride and groom should connect with their photographer, trust their photographer and be excited about the whole process! After booking, I love getting to know my clients through a complimentary engagement session that helps them warm up to the camera so they are ready to rock and roll on the wedding day! By the time the wedding day approaches, we have worked together and you feel comfortable with me, and that creates a safe and relaxed environment for photography. (If you live out of town and an engagement session is not possible, we can plan for a bridal portrait session or newlywed session instead.) Now that you know a little bit about my approach to the wedding day, you can continue reading to find more detailed information about the Wedding Experience!

WHY INVEST? Your first decision as an engaged couple is to set priorities for your wedding planning. You have to decide what you value most. Is it the dress? The food? The venue? I believe that couples should make their photography a top priority. After the big day is over, you will leave your reception with your spouse and your pictures .... that’s it! All of that planning and preparation is over in a matter of hours. So if you’re choosing to invest in high-quality photography, those images deserve a classy, elegant home after the wedding. I offer high end, image cover or leather bound Legacy Albums for my wedding clients. The images are printed straight onto the pages, and the covers are wrapped with top-grain leather. This is the perfect ending to the Wedding Experience, and it’s a keepsake you will be showing your children and grandchildren one day!
