Remember those ad’s that were running a few years ago for eharmony? The ones with Dr. Warren dressed up in a white suit and telling everyone about the 29 dimensions of compatability they they used to match people up. I decided to give it a try and six months later I was engaged to Becky and six months after that we were married.

So we’re one of those success stories that you see on the commercials today. They didn’t pick our story to end up on a commercial even though I think it’s a great story…..but a little too long to share here.

Our wedding was an amazing day, surrounded by our friends and family and filled with laughter, faith and hope.  But I remember the first thing we said to each other the next morning as we made our way to the restaurant to have breakfast with our family.

“It went by too fast…..it’s really too bad we couldn’t have stretched the whole event out over a few days.”

A lot of what I learned that day shapes my style and goals when it comes to photographing your big day. Instead of a long list of what you can expect from me I thought it might be easier to quickly tell you what you won’t get from me.

I won’t rush you. We can get together as often as you need before the wedding day to discuss all of the details and everything you need from me.

You won’t be tripping over your photographer that day. I stay in the background as you get ready for the day and then let things unfold and be there to capture them. Posed shots are kept to a minimum – I remember how much I appreciated being able to enjoy most of my wedding without having to worry about endlessly looking at the camera.

You won’t have to worry about being able to afford only a few of your favorite photos.  Wondering why I charge what I do and how I can give away a selection of your best photos?  You don’t pay for any advertising – almost all of my work comes from referrals.  I work out of my home so you don’t have to pay for high rent costs from a studio photographer.  I know you don’t have $100 to spend on a single 8 x 10 and so I charge what I need to on my packages and then offer affordable alternatives when ordering prints and albums. 

You won’t end up with photos that look like everyone else’s. Whether you want bright and vibrant colors or crisp high contrast black and whites, traditional outdoor photos or trendy and unique urban shots, I’ll make sure that you get exactly what you were looking for. I don’t have a ‘set’ style, each set is just a little different.

Finally, you don’t have to worry about not having any fun during your photos! We’ll pick a few great locations that will keep you interested and excited about your pictures. I have a casual and relaxed approach that I try and pass along to everyone. I want to have a great time photographing you and I think the easiest way to make that happen is to make sure you’re having a good time to!
