My Rates:

My 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. I'm proud of my work and I have happy clients. References from recent clients are available upon request.

My rates are based on the number of hours you hire me for, and the number of pictures you request. The longer I shoot, the more pictures you'll get. Clients get what I 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, and minimally processed (cropped but not color adjusted, not retouched). "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 my rate is based on the number of hours I shoot and the number of Selects provided.

special guests and unforgetable captures of moments too special to let slip away.


UPGRADES TO CONSIDER:
  • Engagement Session: A great way to document the couple's love and admiration for each other, before the wedding. Many couples highly recommend an Engagement Session because it gave them a chance to get to know the photographer before the wedding; when the big day came, they were a lot more relaxed and confident.  
    Jeff Campbell Photography Rate: $248

  • Bridal Portrait Session: Beautifully rendered portrait of the Bride in her once-in-a-lifetime gown, without the wedding day pressures! Many couples treasure the Bridal Portrait because it's an opportunity to capture forever the Bride's glowing beauty without the pressure and stress of the wedding day. 
    Jeff Campbell Photography Rate: $248

  • Custom Hardbound Coffee Table Book:  Feature professional bindings with pages made of top-quality coated, semi-matte paper, just like the art books you might buy at Borders. Your book will measure 8x10" and have its own full-color dust jacket to protect it over the years.

What Does Each Package Include?

Within 10 business days after the ceremony, Clients get custom-created DVD-R disc with the following:

 * All Plus Selects: all images off the camera, minimally processed, in digital negative format; PLUS the best of the best are selected and are hand-processed and individually retouched. Some of these Selects will have special treatments such as black and white, sepia, vignettes, selective coloring, etc. The number of selects depends on the package chosen (see above);
 * PLUS all Selects will be formatted in Hi-Resolution (for printing) and Low-Resolution (for email, web, etc);
 * PLUS all Selects will be viewable in an online gallery for one month so you can share with family and friends;
 * PLUS you'll have "Home Use" reprint rights on all images on the disc, in perpetuity;
 * PLUS you'll receive one large print (8"x10") of the image of your choice, ready to be mounted and framed!
 * PLUS with the Platinum Package you'll get a set of 4x6" prints of all 200 selects!

With all the images on disc, you'll have the right and the ability to make prints of whatever images you choose. You'll never have to contact the photographer to ask for more prints, you'll just take the disc to the printer of your choice and print what you want. Note: If you'd like, I can also coordinate your order of prints but that is an additional fee.

I have a detailed but flexible contract that my Clients and I sign when they make the decision to hire me. Everything is agreed upon up-front; you'll have no last-minute surprises, no unexpected costs, no frustrating delays. A non-refundable reservation deposit of 50% is due at the time you sign the contract. The deposit ensures that I will be available for your event and not take any other assignment for that day. Remainder is due upon your receipt of the discs (about two weeks after the wedding).

I would love to be your wedding photographer, and I hope one of these packages meets your needs. If not, please let me know what changes I could make that would create a perfect fit for you.

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.
