I am a medium-budget photographer, part-time, and take only a few weddings per year.
I use a photojournalistic style to portray the excitement, the fun, and the emotion of your special day, as well as the small details which complete the picture. There will be a group photo session with the wedding party and families at a planned time in the day. During the day I will also spend some additional time with the bride and groom alone creating some memorable personal images.
My approach is to set a single fee for doing the photo shooting, which will give you a DVD with the full-resolution photos, fully post-processed to perfection, including some with special fashion treatments or effects. I will also put the shots on a gallery web site where you and your friends and family can view them and order prints if you like, but you can always make your own prints from the DVD.
Most couples want one or more albums of their wedding photos. I am happy to make a professional album for you, but if you want, you can make it yourself from the photos on the DVD.
The wedding photography package includes:
Album(s). Albums can be anything you desire. If you have something in mind, tell me about it and I will give you a quote on what it will cost. If you don't yet know what you want, I can show you some samples of what I have done in the past, but remember, we are not limited to what you see in the samples.
Before the album is printed, you will receive a proof in a pdf file for your approval.
I have a few flush-mount albums with 30 pages, 10x10 black or brown padded simulated leather cover for $500 complete.
A typical mother's album would have 26 pages, 6x6 hardcover, $54.
Standard prints, ordered online: 8 wallets $4.50, 4x6 $1.50, 5x7 $3, 8x10 $6, 8x12 $7.50, 11x14 $9.
Custom wall prints, studio quality: 16x20 $43.50, 20x30 $82.50, 24x36 $136.50, 30x40 $139.50. Framing extra.
NC tax included.
Please note, these are "standard" suggestions, but if they do not sound like what you are looking for, just talk to me and we will gladly adjust them to your needs and budget.
Photo shoots are all on-location with natural backgrounds. Normally the location would be the venue of the wedding ceremony, but it can be another scenic location if desired. I will bring all needed lighting equipment.
No charge for travel within 150 mi radius of southwest Charlotte, North Carolina. Charge for travel expenses beyond that.
Payments: 1/3 deposit to hold the date, 1/3 on or before wedding day, 1/3 at delivery of DVD. Album & print orders prepaid. In case of cancellation, deposit is refundable.
