our top 8 things we think you should know.....
proud and honored to be a wedding photographer
We love weddings, we love to have fun and enjoy the whole event. We mingle and chat to guests, have fun with the bride and groom and the bridal party often going above and beyond the call of duty. We're pretty much prepared to do anything to get that special shot.
ultimate privilege
To us it is the ultimate privilege to photograph someone's special day. The pay off for us is not just the thank you cards and the nice emails, it is seeing the faces of our bride and grooms when they see their images for the first time and relive their wedding day as we saw it.
the documentary wedding photographers
We are like the journalist who reported what they saw... we are everywhere but nowhere, recording what we see, not improving it, not staging it, not prompting it, just capturing it at its best – naturally...
the silent observer
We often call ourselves the silent observer, capturing the moments as well as the formal family pictures.
looking your best
People will always look their best when they're not thinking about photography. We believe you can't pose people naturally. During the wedding day we often use longer lenses to keep our distance so the photography looks natural.
the ultimate memory in 20 years time
We bring art to a wedding, creating and capturing memories and emotions... remember that after the party has finished, the cake has been eaten, and the dress is in a box, the only thing left is the photography. We want our Bride and Grooms to look back at their wedding pictures in 20 years time and still be able to feel the emotions they felt on their wedding day.
no chance of a re-shoot, weddings are a one off event!
Wedding photography is the most challenging type of photography. There are a lot of variables on the day that need to be understood, anticipated and dealt with, leaving the photography to amateurs with inferior equipment is simply asking for disaster. Wedding photography is not easy, you need a lot of experience, we cannot have a bad day as there is no chance of a wedding re-shoot.
right place... right time...
To capture those moments you need a lot of past experience to know and understand the natural flow of a wedding. Most weddings are similar but often run very differently.
Digital Editing
We all know from the multitude of magazines that the final printed image you see is somewhat different than the original image. All of them have been manipulated and 'touched up' in one way or another. There is a real art to this and therefore we take our time with our editing and use top of range software to get your wedding images to a point where they are as good as they can be.
Post production editing is where we enhance the original images by altering them to make them absolutely perfect for you. Editing is very time consuming but this is where we can make a relatively 'normal' image look absolutely stunning.
Printing - You control the costs!
Having your full resolution edited print ready files means you are not only able to print your photos straight away, but with the many readily available online book making sites you can have fun making your own wedding book.
If you are thinking about doing your own book we would recommend using the online album manufacturer called 'MyPublisher'. We have used MyPublisher to produce some sample Wedding Albums and their print quality and colour re-production is fantastic.
