Wedding Photography

We love photographing weddings. Whether you are planning to have a Cinderella-like wedding inside an old mansion or getting married barefoot on the beach, we will be there to artistically capture the love that is shining out of you. Not only that, we enjoy catching the wonderful little moments that happen without anybody noticing. It's the details that are all around that makes your wedding day special, including your guests who are having fun. With our detailed photographs, your wedding won't be just a memory in your mind, instead you will have the visual moments captured forever.

We work with high quality digital equipment that allows us to work fast without the need of changing film and lets us take an almost unlimited number of images. After the wedding we can turn your photos into black & white, sepia or add some other special effects, depending on your preferences. We will also design layouts for an album of your choice, print photos, and so much more.

Destination Wedding Photography

So you are dreaming of an exotic destination wedding? Why not make it a reality? The challenge is that you want the most beautiful photos, but at the destination location, you don't know what type of photographer you can find or trust. That's where our experience comes in.

We have travelled around the world to photograph large weddings to very private weddings. We have worked across the historic European countryside, walked on the Hawaiian beaches, and even travelled many miles off-road to photograph the most exclusive wedding sites. Because of our natuaral adventurous personalities, destination weddings are our specialty. The options are practically limitless, it's just up to you where you want to go.

While some fear the cost of a destination wedding, you might be surprised by what is possible. Give us a call or email to learn more about fullfilling your destination wedding dream.

Engagement Sessions

Engagement sessions are always exciting. A session gives you an opportunity to dress up and go out and be yourselves and have us photograph the fun for you. The photos from the engagement session can be used for invitations, signature boards, engagement albums, or just images to show everyone to show how and why you two are meant to be together.

Another great thing about the engagement sessions is that it is a great way to get to know your photographer that is going to shoot your wedding. We are going to be following you around all day on your wedding day, and this is an opportunity to see how we work and get comfortable in front of the camera. It also gives us an opportunity to learn more about you and what your preferences are. Think of it as the warm up to your wedding day.

Children/Family Photography

I usually like to take the kids to the park or some other place where they can play, run around and have fun. I want to capture them as they are at that time of their lives, creating portraits that are natural and seemingly unposed. If they feel like sitting nicely and smiling for the camera - fine, but if they don't I will follow them wherever they go to explore and play with them. I believe that is the best way to see the true essence and spirit of your child/children. I used to be a nanny so I have lots of patience and understanding for your little ones.

Newborn sessions are ususally done in the studio. Your baby can relax and sleep at the comfortable temperature of the room while I make sure you will get the photographs of your little angel from all angles and of every kisseble part of his/hers body.

Printing & Framing Services

You chose us to photograph your most precious moments. Don't just have your photos printed anywhere. Let us print them for you through our lab that dedicates their time to quality and not inferior inks and papers which will show the images off poorly.

We have a variety of printing options along with several finishing details. We can print most any size in any finish and place them into a frame, on gator foam, wood backed, or even on a full wrap canvas. There are so many options, you just have to see what is available to believe it.

Slideshows

We can turn your still photos into moving art with a musical background. We will take photos from your event and synchronize them with a song of your choice. For example, this can be used to show off engagement photos at a wedding or show highlights from your wedding day. When you don't want a long video, a beautiful slideshow can be your answer.

There are a number of different output options as well. You can have a slideshow for your T.V., Computer, website, iPod, or so many other ways. Digitally or physically, we can get you a dream slideshow.
