About

We do one thing. We capture your special  day in a special way. We combine traditional wedding photography with a photojopuirnalistic approach. We look for the little things that no one sees, but everyone wants to remember. From the bride getting ready, to the newlyweds leaving the reception, we are there all day, no time limit, and no limit of image taken.  Using all digital Nikon equipment, we can provide your finished proofs in 3 weeks or less, depending on the amount of images.

On a budget? You will  receive 2 cd’s of all images color corrected, touched and cropped, ready to print. You will also receive 4X6  proofs of all images taken. We will provide a release so you can have your pictures printed anywhere you like and as often as you like. We will also provide information on where to have albums made if you like. Wo do not upsell. We povide the raw materials and you choose how to have them made.

Check our wensite for package information and pricing.

Additional Questions and Answers

A lot of people are asking why digital?

1st and foremost, cost. Yes there is a cost involved in going from film to ditgital eqwuipment, but once that cost is met, the savings to the bride and groom can be immense. With film, you shoot 20-30 rolls of 12 exposure and your costs go something like this. Film      8.00-12.00 per roll. thats an average of 250.00 per wedding. Processing, 12.00-15.00 per roll. another 325.00. And thats just the photographers cost. Most will add a markup on the materials, so figure 800.00 in film/processing. Touchup/colorcorrection  1.00 - 3.00 per images in darkroom time.500.00.  With Digital, that all goes away. We can usually get a wholde days shooting on a 50.00 memory card. 1025.00 saved. Thats 22000.00 wedding packages NOW becomes 1000.00  

2nd,  Digital wedding are green, environmentally safe. No chemicals to dispose of.

3rd. Film/negatives deteriorate over time. CD’s can have a 100year life. If you are worried about file degradation, Just recopy your files every 5years or so.
