You only have one chance to get amazing wedding photos, so you'll want to hire someone who has lots of experience and knows how to get those shots under pressure, someone who is a seasoned professional with the technical expertise and styles you like, someone who truly cares about what you want to achieve with your wedding photography. Wedding photography is our passion and not just a job.

Although since 2006 we've photographed many weddings in many different styles, we do what you like and not what we want. Photojournalism with a relaxed, fun and natural approach has been our clients’ favorite.

Your wedding is your show! We're honored to be there to capture your special moments. We shoot in an unobtrusive manner and remains in the background for the majority of the day. We work well under pressure and remain calm should the unexpected happen.

Ahh, let’s start by grabbing some coffee & talking about your wedding plan and goals. We will also work closely together during your engagement session, as well as communicate through email/text/call as often as you need.

One of the overwhelming feedbacks we get from our clients is “You made us feel so relaxed and comfortable!” You want to feel relaxed so that you show your genuine emotions in your photos. One of the best ways is to work together in a real photography session like an engagement session. All our packages include a complimentary engagement session for that reason.

Yes, you will receive a copyright release to allow you to print your own pictures and share them on social media without any hidden cost to you.

Yes. Professional wedding photographers should have the proper insurance for their business. If a wedding photographer does not have insurance, chances are he is new to the industry or not taking his business seriously.

Yes. Someone who keeps up with the latest technology and information in the industry is serious and passionate about his work, which will show in the photographs and how he works with you. I have been a proud member of Professional Photographers of America, PPA for over a decade.

If you want the best pictures, hire someone who uses top-quality equipment. A true professional will arrive at your wedding prepared with multiple cameras, lenses and lightings. Equipment does malfunction and break down from time to time. There is no second chance at your wedding. Nothing would be worse than for the photographer to miss half of your wedding because his camera or lens broke or malfunctioned, and he didn’t have a spare. We bring multiple cameras, lenses and lighting equipment to every wedding.

Yes. You should require a contract from your photographer that details what services they will be providing, pricing, termination resolution terms, etc. A contract is created for your protection, and for the wedding photographer’s protection. It is best to hire a photographer that will build a contract with you, and be wary of photographers that won’t.

Both. This is an important question because it will really determine how flexible and experienced a photographer is while shooting your wedding. Since the lighting at wedding venues can change unpredictably, you would want a photographer who shoots both natural and artificial lighting. Choosing one or the other is like a Carpenter saying he only uses a hammer or a saw for the job.  Different lights are just  different tools.  We use them all to get the job done right and beautifully.

We have done both. Most photographers will welcome a shot list to make sure you get the specific pictures you want. But don't overwhelm him with hundreds of requests -- if you hire a good pro, you're hiring him for his eye as well as his experience creating amazing images. Let him do his job!

Yes, We will be happy to and have always done that for other couples. This is such a great question yet very few asked. A good photographer should help plan the photo aspect of the day to make sure everything flows smoothly. The last thing you want to do is to be rushed on your wedding day. A seasoned photographer should also point out various things that can come up that you wouldn’t think about during planning the timeline for your wedding day. A great photographer should also know when the best light is, and schedule your photos during “golden hour lighting” if possible.

Your wedding photographer will shadow you on your wedding day and you want to make sure he’s the right fit before you sign him.  Face-to-face meetings and working together in a real photography session such as engagement session are great ways to find out if you work well together and check out the quality of the photos.

You will likely remember very little of your wedding, and the only reminder of your wedding will be the beautiful images captured by your invaluable professional wedding photographer. You will use these images to reminisce that wonderful day in your life. The relationship between you and your wedding photographer may only last several hours, but the results of the relationship will last forever.
