OCCASIONALLY  HEARD STATEMENT... "But I can get photography done for $.50 less down the street!!"
Yes you probably can. But please don't shop for a photographer like you would shop for a car.  Cars come from a factory and are mass-produced so you can shop for price all you want.  Beautiful and romantic interpretations of your special day come from artists.  We will make you look your best and most beautiful on your wedding day. Please find a photographer who has the personality and style that you like and then trust your heart. You probably spent many thousands of dollars on your wedding ring because it is a symbol of a love that will last. Your photos are cherished memories of the tenderness of your wedding day that will also last for generations. Invest in truly wonderful and lasting memories by allowing us to photograph your wedding.

A word about our packages:

Every wedding comes with a web-ready CD with all of your images on it. Each CD has a navigation menu to help guide you through your wedding day. The CD may be viewed on your choice of home computer.

    Additional Great Things to Have

    As we said, we don't think it's right to have you buy items you don't want just to get those truly important photos that you do want. We would rather have you put your money where your heart is. With that in mind, we encourage you to add photographic treasures according to your heart's desire, not because they are included in a package of some sort. Purchase only those items that are treasured by you.

    Wedding Magazines (by far our most popular item) are available at $275 for the first magazine and $250 for each additional magazine ordered at the same time. Wedding Magazines come with your wedding portraits printed 6 images per page. Tip: They are a GREAT and economical gift for your Parents and Grandparents.

    Proof Book are available for $270 for the first proof book and $350 for each additional proof book ordered at the same time. Proof books come with 200 photos from your wedding.

    Parent's Gift Folios are available from $50 - $125. What a great gift to give to your parents right after the toasts at your wedding to thank them for all they've done for you through the years. It's a gift from your heart that only YOU can give to them! Have kleenex on hand to wipe the tears! Each folio would contain photos from your engagement session and a space for a photo from your wedding.


    Question - Can we buy the negatives/high resolution images??
    Answer - YES, you certainly can!!

    • Negatives are priced from $350 - $850, depending on the quantity of images.

    • High resolution digital files are priced from $300 - $600, depending on the quantity and editing of images.

    Financing Your Wedding
    There are many ways to finance your wedding photography. Here are a couple of the most popular...

    1. Register with us for a Gift Registry. Everyone always asks where the Bride is registered for gifts. Why not include components of your wedding photos as registry items with us? It makes sense! Your shower guests can give you certificates for photo folios for the parents, Wedding Magazines or other items and the best part is they don't have to buy the whole item but can contribute whatever they would like to the total cost. At your shower or wedding they will present you with a nicely printed certificate explaining what they have given you. What can be better??

    2. Or... you can spread your wedding retainer evenly over the number of months until your wedding. For example: Assume that it's 16 months until your wedding. You are getting the Exquisite package for $3580. 3580/16months=$223 per month. If you are getting the Demure package for $2500 your monthly retainer would be: 2500/16=156 per month.  It's a great way to get what you really want instead of having to settle for less than you deserve.

      Terms

      Standard Retainer Schedule
      - An initial retainer of $300 is required to reserve your wedding date.
      - A second retainer of 1/3 of the balance is due four months prior to the wedding date.
      - A third retainer of 1/3 of the balance is due two weeks prior to the wedding date.
      - The balance is due when the Preview Prints or Thumbnail CD is delivered.

      You may also pay using PayPal.

      The utmost care will be exercised with respect to the exposure and handling of the photographs and film. However, any liability will be limited to a refund of the retainers upon return of all photographs delivered.
