Weddings

Congratulations on your engagement and thank you so much for considering my studio for your special day! Wedding photography is an unique mix of art, skill, passion and experience. When those elements come together, great photographs will be the result. I have been shooting weddings since 2011 and have worked with several hundred couples from New York City to San Francisco- and everywhere in between. We have won Best of TheKnot.com for both our wedding and boudoir photography for the last 4 years in a row, won a WeddingWire Couples Choice Award in 2016, Best of Mentor for creative services in 2016 and 2017, and Best Wedding Photography in Northeast Ohio in 2014, 2015, and 2016.

As an established studio we have built a foundation of high expectations and the belief that excellent customer service, in addition to strong client relationships, are essential for an unforgettable experience. Combine that with stunning images displayed in sophisticated albums, and we consider it the perfect marriage of photography and design. To make it even better? We’re fun. And you’re going to have an absolute blast at your wedding that results in swoon-worthy photography that you
will absolutely gush over.

Our Photographic Voice

Style

My approach to wedding photography can be described as vibrant, modern art meets perfectly timed candid moments.

I love to let moments unfold naturally and capture them as they are, in their most candid form. The best way to produce these results is simply by paying attention to my surroundings and moving with the beat of our events. I am always happy to offer photographic insight such as the best locations for lighting, timeline assistance on how to get the most out of your coverage, and style certain scenes such as the wedding details e.g. dress, bouquet, shoes, invitations, wedding rings. Even during the bride and groom couples photos, we aim to make sessions fun and relaxed to produce photos that look natural and not overly posed. We’ve been incredibly fortunate to work with so many clients who share our vision and photographic voice.

Simply How We Roll

Experience

Weddings are an immense production, and because they happen only once, we take great care in the way we handle photographing the event.

For all of our wedding collections, we arrive early for location scouting (for worldwide destination weddings, this typically means we’ll fly in at least one to two days early or more). If you have a professional wedding planner or other creative team members, we will collaborate with them and help with timeline planning and review, questionnaire review, and family shot planning and review. Our equipment camera package as well as backup equipment package includes professional grade Canon 5D Mark III and IV DSLR cameras, several Canon Sigma ART Lenses, Canon Speedlights, and two Westcott Ice Lights. Photographs are immediately backed up in real-time via dual memory card slots in the cameras we use and further backed up via external hard drives and online cloud backup after the event. We are also a fully licensed and insured business and can provide proof of Business General Liability Insurance for venues that require it.

Keeping It Simple

Explanation of Package and Terms

Coverage – Typical Saturday packages start at 8 hours of coverage to ensure we can capture all of the important parts of the day: preparation, ceremony, group photos, bride and groom photos, reception, and milestone moments. Many Thursday, Friday and Sunday weddings do not need the same needs as our full-day packages and can be tailored to start at 3 hours and up depending on what you are wanting highlighted from your day. The amount of images you’ll receive is highly dependent on your unique wedding plans and event length, but we typically deliver over 75+ photos per hour coverage. All photos are edited and color graded to match our signature style.

Online Gallery Access – A custom online gallery will be created to display your photographs on our website that can be shared friends and family, making it easy for you to share the photographs with loved ones. Galleries can also be password protected at your discretion as needed.

Duo Photographer Packages – The additional photographer will provide double the coverage during certain parts of the day, and also offer unique angles and perspectives. Typically it allows one photographer to obtain the shots you need, while the other photographer can take the shots you want – the creative shots that are riskier or take more time for the photographer to set up. During certain parts of the day, the second photographer will also serve as a general assistant, lighting assistant, stylist, and also perform behind-the-scenes work.

Full-Resolution Digital Files – All of our wedding collections include full-resolution digital files so you have a permanent archive of your day to create prints and products now and in the future. For clients who prefer professional printing options, we are partnered with Miller’s Professional Imaging to provide rich prints that are accurate in exposure, color, tone, and contrast.

USB Drive and Stainless Steel Case – Our USB drives come pre-loaded with all of your full resolution photographs and will be personally packaged in a stainless steel container. While we do archive your images as a backup, we recommend that you do the same and store them in at least one additional place aside from your USB.

Engagement Session – Our engagement sessions are untimed and unrushed, and typically run about 1 to 1.5 hours. We allow for props, 1 to 2 outfits, and 1 to 2 locations. You’ll receive roughly 60-75 fully edited images in an online gallery where you can view and share the images as well as a $40 credit towards the prints of your choice. We do not include digital files in our portrait sessions however they are available for purchase either individually or as the entire collection.

Engagement sessions are tailored to the individual tastes and interests of our clients to tell your love story and keep you feeling your best in your element. Did you love your first date location in Downtown Willoughy? Get engaged at Headlands or Edgewater Park? Do you love to hike with your dogs in the Metroparks?

Let’s chat about your interests and build your session around the places that are most special to you. Pets and children part of that story? No problem at all- we would love to meet them as well. Destination engagement sessions are also available for couples who love travel and adventure as much as we do.

Behind The Scenes

Post Production

Your photographs are as important to us as they are to you, and as such, our post production includes immediate transferring of files, a secondary external backup of files, as well as a third online backup of files to cloud storage.

Our post production also includes culling, exposure corrections, color corrections, and color grading on the entire collection. High end skin retouching is included on select close-up photos. Black and white processing is included on select highlights. Turnaround for engagement sessions is roughly 3 weeks while turnaround for wedding collections is roughly 6-8 weeks (sooner when we are able to). Having this time allows us to provide un-rushed post-processing and editing to give you seamless, archival quality results.

The Process of Reserving Your Date

Booking

After we get to know each other in person or over Skype, we’ll move forward with the booking process by sending you an online contract with a finalized proposal for you and your fiance to review and e-sign. We’ll then send you an online invoice for the booking retainer, which once paid, you’ll be officially booked. Prefer the paper route? No problem. Hard copy contracts are also available and can be mailed to the studio with a check if you prefer. As we get closer to your date, I will check in periodically and also schedule your final 30 day out meeting to chat about all the details. Our questionnaire will outline your preferences for locations, times, who you
would like featured in formal shots, and anything we can do to help structure a timeline so you are getting the most out of your coverage.
