Every couple has
a love story.
Let me tell yours.
Your wedding is a unique reflection of you. That's why I love getting to
know you personally- so I can tell your story beautifully. Sharing all
your wedding dreams and details helps me create authentic, meaning
ful images that reflect the true you. Your unguarded moments. Your
natural emotions. All the cherished images of your very special day.
My shooting style is quietly unobtrusive. And my images naturally
reveal the expressions oflove and commitment that you both share.
This is my passion. The heart of what I do. And it shines through in
every image.
Your wedding day will be filled with extraordinary moments - inti
mate, surprising and joyous. Those fleeting moments, captured cre
atively, are the timeless visual heirlooms that will instantly bring you
back to the essence of your wedding day.
Let me tell your love story.

I CHOOSING YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER I
t~:f%~ ~?i/ft
You have hundreds of wedding plans to make. Deciding who will
bring your memories to life is one of your most important. When the
flurry and excitement of your wedding day is over, it is beautifully cap
tured images that help you revisit the romance, emotion and spirit of an
event that passes so quickly.
So, how do you choose the best wedding photographer for you?
Choose A Photographer Who Values Your Dreams
I don't think of you as just a shot list. Instead, I invest time getting to
know you and your wedding dreams. That makes all the difference. You
will be more comfortable in front of my lens, and your images will have
the natural, more authentic feel of true keepsakes.
View Portfolio Images From An Entire Wedding
I will capture consistent, quality images throughout your wedding day.
Details matter. And the subtle nuances of your day are important. I'm
happy to share entire wedding galleries with you, so you can assure your
self that the quality you expect consistently shines through in every shot.
Choose A Seasoned Professional
I'm experienced dealing with many different lighting environments and
situations. I'm committed to professional and timely response to your
needs before and after the ceremony. All hallmarks of a seasoned
professional. And all assurances that every special moment of your
wedding is flawlessly captured.

f/f%~1!wa Let's get together - on the phone, at your favorite coffee spot, even
SKYPE - I'm flexible. We'll chat about your wedding day, confirm
your date, and discuss all the fun details. I'll show you examples of
beautiful custom wedding albums and other items that can become your
cherished wedding day heirlooms. Together, we'll select the perfect
package for your wedding.
Once we confirm the details, I'll prepare your contract. After you return
your signed contract and the retainer fee, I'm officially your wedding
photographer!

details, so I can start planning your shoot.

2 Weeks Before Your Wedding: We confirm the details from your ques
tionnaire and address changes or questions.
Your Wedding Day: I follow your timeline as your day unfolds.

Show your loved ones how and where your love story began with your
own engagement photo session.
Engagement sessions add so much to the story of who you are as a
couple right now, and they're an ideal way to become more comfortable
in front of my lens before your wedding day.
Your engagement session can be as simple as a stroll through your fa
vorite park, an intimate meal at your favorite cafe, or even a romantic
return to where he proposed - anything you can imagine to share the
imagery of your personal love story.
Formal or informal, images from your engagement session are beautiful
additions to your wedding album, and also make a wonderful sign
ing book. They help to craft the whole story, and can even be used for
Save-the-Date cards, Invitations or Thank You cards.

I Will Marry My Frienn...--11111
Memorable weddings don't just happen. They take a bit of organization.
To ensure a smooth flow of beautifully captured memories of your
day, a timeline of wedding events will help guide your planning.
Getting Ready: The Bride & Groom - 1.5 to 2.0 hours
Plan for some additional time for photos at the salon, and if you're
planning a "first look".
The Wedding Ceremony - 15 minutes to 1.5 hours
The length of your ceremony may vary widely. Afterward, allow
more time for formal portraits (if planned) to allow your guests to
leave the church or venue.
Formal Group & Family Portraits - 30 minutes to 1.0 hour
Formal portrait timing can vary widely depending on group size and
family/group combinations.
Wedding Party & The Newlywed Couple - 1.0 to 3.0 hours
Timing can depend largely on the venue, size of the bridal party and
variety of poses.
Your Reception - 2.0 to 6.0 hours
Your first dance, cutting the cake, dancing guests, friends and family
sharing your joy.
Remember. Your wedding day is unique, and planning together en
sures you don't miss a minute of this special time in your lives.

I DETAILS DETAILS I
The dress. The rings. The cake. The bouquet. These, and all
the other visual details of your wedding, are small but
oh-so-meaningful expressions of all that is unique about
you. They are the fine points that distinguish you as a
couple, and form the visual texture of tender memories.
I will document them with care.

I REMEMBERING YOUR DAY I
There is something about holding a photograph in your hands. It connects you physically to the feelings of a time and place that an
image on a screen can't replace. That's why your wedding album is so
important. It is a tangible link to your wedding day.
Digital files definitely have their place. But a beautifully crafted fine
art album is a permanent heirloom you will enjoy, share and pass
down - a meaningful connection to your wedding day that becomes
more cherished each year.
