Wedding Packages & Rates:
Our rates are very
affordable and very competitive. Rest
assured that you
will get far
more than your money's worth; you'll get precious memories your family
will treasure for decades. We're proud of our work and we have happy
clients. References from recent clients are available upon request.
Our rates are based on the number of hours
you hire us for, and the number
of pictures you request. The longer we shoot, the more pictures you'll
get. Clients get what we call "All
Plus Selects" provided on
highest
quality DVD discs.
"All"
refers to "all the images off the
camera", every single photo taken, in high-resolution digital
negatives, minimally
processed. "Selects"refers to selected images
that are awesome, beautiful, excellent,
memorable photos showing many of the most wonderful moments of your
wedding. When you've narrowed down 300 great pictures to the very best
fifty, individually retouched, enhanced and optimized them, those are
called Selects. So the rate is based on the number of
hours we shoot and the number of Selects provided.

they're a lot more relaxed. Jeff Campbell

stress of the wedding day. Jeff Campbell

The most basic goal in wedding photography has always been quite
simple: To make a portrait of the newlyweds.
Over time, as photographic
services have become more accessible, wedding photography expanded to
include pictures of the wedding party
and the families of the bride and
groom. Gradually, wedding portraiture has evolved to the point where
creative shots showing the bride’s gown,
the wedding party,
and the newlywed’s rings are typically included with romantic
portraits of the bridal couple.
The evolution in wedding photography continues with a new trend:
photojournalistic photography.
Taking the journalistic approach means
creating a visual record of the wedding day as it happens, instead of
posting significant participants
around the couple and making sure
everything is perfectly in place. The photographer accompanies the
couple throughout the wedding day,
often starting with preparations for
the ceremony and often staying throughout the reception (as does a
traditional photographer).
The aim is to produce artful photographs
which realistically portray their subjects. People are in motion -
dancing, talking, laughing -
accurately reflecting the ongoing activity
and the excitement of the wedding day.
The attraction to the photojournalistic style is that the photographer
acknowledges the little things that make up a beautiful moment,
and
pays attention to them - for example, a child playing with the ribbons
on the
bride’s bouquet, dad giving an old friend a tight-squeezed
hug,
or the bride putting the finishing touches on her attire -
memorable elements that fill the wedding celebration.
When well done, these candid photos capture on film the natural
sentiments and personalities of their subjects, as people are not posed
for the shot.
The photographer may use telephotographic lenses so as to
be as unobtrusive as possible, allowing subjects freedom to just be
themselves.
In spite of its newfound popularity, photojournalistic wedding
photography is certainly not replacing its more traditional
counterpart.
Creating an artistic photo from an ordinary moment
involves split-second timing, experience and skill at this style of
photography,
together with a highly - tuned sense of intuition on the
part of the photographer. It’s simply a more risky enterprise
to hope that the moments
will happen and the photographer will observe
and record them. Taking traditional portraits insures that you will end
up with a visual record of sets of people
(the wedding party, your
families, etc.), grouped together the way you want. It’s also
more comfortable for those
who want to have a moment to compose
themselves before having their photo taken.
Couples who study the two styles often wish to have some elements of
both portrait and photojournalistic photography incorporated into their
own# wedding photographs.
Considering that most couples will not opt to
hire two photographers to record their wedding day, a well-rounded
photographer who may lean more toward one style than the other is a
good choice.
Talented photojournalistic photographers know the value of
traditional wedding portraiture and can excel at making beautiful
portraits, as well as capturing candid moments.
Accomplished portrait
photographers produce classic portraiture, but can also set up
scenarios which help create more spontaneous shots,
ensuring a variety
of photographs which include the lighthearted moments of the day.
Talk with the photographers you interview to get their ideas about the
trends in wedding photography. The key to successfully finding the
right photographer is,
of course, looking at a lot of photographers
portfolios, and seeing a good sampling of an individual
photographer’s work before you engage him or her as your
wedding photographer.
Texas, called the Lone Star State, is a not only known for its massive
geographic size, but also for its genuine heart and hospitality. The
citizens of Texas are known for their large, welcoming hearts.
Texas’ name comes from the word "teysha" which means, "hello
friend" and in this state, “friendship” is the
motto by which the culture lives by.
In this wide span of kindness and
warmth, Texas offers an endless selection of wedding locations to make
your celebration spectacular, captured in quality by your wedding
photographer.
Texas state capital of Austin is a magnificent wedding destination,
seated on the Colorado River with its beautiful landscape of natural
beauty and lush greenery.
In this area you will find a variety of
wedding photography locations. Recreational activities are in surplus

the Austin Zoo to the fantastic local cuisines like the Barbecue
capital city of Lockhart—there are never ending accessories.
