About
I will record your day with an artistic, professional eye. I put emphasis on your personal style and focus totally on your needs. I find true emotion, capture the intimate moments and I promise to deliver images that will bring you wonderful memories. Seven words that describe my work are: fun, quirky, spontaneous, natural, creative, whimsical and playful.  I don't dictate my ideas but instead I listen to your ideas, your wants and your needs because this is your moment unfolding. My specialty is being in the background without loosing touch with those classic moments. I record the day so you can remember your wonderful beginning together.

Additional Questions and Answers
Most wedding photographers charge per print and the cost can add up quickly.  When you hire Heimlich photography you are provided with a High resolution CD of all of our pictures so you can make as many prints as you wish.  We also provide a 4x6 proof book for the couple.  Please note if you would like us to do the enlargements or copies for you we do charge extra for this service but remember you can cut cost by doing the printing yourselves.  Our packages give you printing rights on all of your photos. 

Tips and Advice

Top 10 things to do when hiring a photographer

2.  Be clear on the style of photography you would like, bring photos from magazines or other weddings.
3.  Assign a member of the family to point out critical people to the photographers.
4.  Be aware that a typical wedding and reception takes approximately 6-8 hours. 
5.  Ask how many photographers will be there or will the photographer bring an assistant?
6.  Ask if they have back up equipment
7.  Ask to see work from other weddings
8.  Plan all aspects you want photographed (getting dressed, bouquet toss, cutting of the cake, etc.) around the amount of time you have contracted. 
9.  Make a list of contact numbers for the photographer
10.   Ask if there are any hidden or extra charges

Remember you should feel comfortable with the photographer you hire during the initial interview.  The photographer is working for you and addressing your needs and wishes.  Good luck with your wedding day!  Relax, enjoy each other and your guest, no worries!
