I know how important your wedding is and I also know that hiring a wedding photographer can be a lot of work, that’s why I have created this wedding booklet to answer all those questions you may be wondering to do most the work for you. Nowdays it seems like everyone knows a wedding photogra-pher or has decided to pick up photography as a side hobby and it can be taxing on your brain if you aren’t sure of what you’re paying for and what you can expect. I try to make sure that you know your wedding is going to be one of, if not the most memorable day of your life and preserving those mem-ories is what I strive for the most. So sit back relax and enjoy knowing that you can have peace of mind having us photograph and preserve your wedding day memories!

Quality Quality Quality! I can not express this word more than ever! So many times I see couples just settle for a low cost photographer and then afterwards they up regreting not having hired a photographer with the best quality images. I always believe the better the quality of an image the better they will look on prints. You will want your images to stand up against time.

Personality Connection YYou will want to make sure you find a comortable connection with your wedding photographer. Ask yourself if you find their personlity a perfect fit for your wedding day. Make sure you both enjoy the presence your photographer brings, to make your wedding day easy going and fun as possible.

PricingAs you can imagine pricing out your wedding is not the easiest thing to do, but making sure you’re getting what you pay for plays an important role in wedding photography. Ask yourself if the price being given is reasonable for what you are getting?

CCreditabiltyOnce you are certain of your wedding photographer, make sure you know their creditability, ask to see reviews, previous samples of galleries and albums. I know I like to boast about the good reviews I get, so go ahead make sure you know your wedding photographer is well known and bears true to their name.

What should we look for in a wedding photographer?

Some questions to consider before getting started...

General Questions:1. What is your primary style?

I like to keep a clean crisp and unique style all at once. I know this seems like a lot but I like to offer different poses and angles for you both, I love dramatic and cinematic looks as well.

2. How many weddings have you shot and have you shot weddings similar to mine?Over the past 5 years I have shot with other photographers and by myself over 150 weddings

3.Will there be a contract for services of event and if so can I get a copy?Most ceMost certainly. I will bring your contract to our initial meeting and we will go over all of it.

4. What happens if the photographer is ill or something happens?Although I am usually your primary photographer I also work along side some amazing photographers who are just as tal-ented as myself and would be filling in for me.

5. Does the package I am interested in include an assistant?I only include an assistant with my weddings that are more than 4 hours.

5. Will you color correct my images?All images that you recieve will have all been color corrected and edited for unwanted markings, wrong exposures and sometimes unneccessary obstructions.

6. What kind of equiptment do you use?Primary high end camera: Canon 5D mark iiSecondary low end camera: Canon rebel t1i24-70mm 2.8 lens70-200mm 2.8 lens85mm 1.8 lens85mm 1.8 lens(2) 600ex Canon flash

7. Should my wedding last longer than expected will you stay longer and is there an extra charge?If in the matter this should happen we can most certainly stay longer, the charge for this is $100 for each additional hour of coverage.

So what happens next?

Bridal ConsultationThis is the initial meeting where we will go over all the basics of what I will offer for your wedding. We will cover the contract, sample albums, dates, location and ect. This is the best time to ask any other questions that you may have for me that are not coverend in this booklet.

Engagement “get to know you” SessionTThis is the next time that we will most likely be meeting again after our initial meeting. Normally this session lasts ap-proxometly 90 minutes. This also allows you the opportunity to experience how I work with you as your photographer and getting warmed up for pictures on your big day. You can typically expect your images to be ready in less than one week.

Your wedding dayThis is the big sha-bang and what it’s all about! This day will come along faster than you think so be sure to cover all topics in this booklet even after meeting with your photographer.

Post production and album processingTypically image post production takes about 2 weeks, unless its the holidays then it takes normally 3 weeks. After your images have been delivered to you via link thats when we can start working on your album. This normally takes up to 4 weeks to get finished and delivered to your front door. Some couples like to meet with me if possible to recieve their album in person. I love this method because my heart melts when I get to witness the reaction on their faces.
