| Wedding Photography |
Wedded bliss can be costly these days. With purchasing a dress, picking out the
perfect cake, and making sure everything is the right shade of pink, even the
smallest wedding can become very expensive.
When the day is all said and done, all you really have left is your special
someone, your gown, and your pictures. You want to look at those pictures &
remember the good times they show, not the price tag that came with them. So,
without a doubt, you will want a photographer that is talented and
knowledgeable of every aspect of a wedding, and will pay attention to every
small detail. And you don't want to have to rush your special day because your
photographer is only staying for a set number of hours.
We believe every girl deserves to have the wedding of her dreams. Our
packages are priced so that instead of spending thousands of dollars for a
photographer, she can "splurge" on something else; like a beautiful cake or
flowers. We also offer custom wedding invitations at a $50 design fee, plus the
cost of the materials to create the invitations.
Wedding Day Coverage
Our wedding photography services are special, indeed. We offer great package
prices that will help take the stress of any budget. We don't put a limit on the
number of pictures or portraits we take. We also photograph for the whole day!
We start photographing as the bride prepares, and don't stop until the end of
the night, so there is no need to rush the evening. Prints are included in each
package by way of a "discount" on your wedding photography
print order. Your proofs are available for viewing just a few days after the
ceremony, and the gallery is online for 60 days. We also custom design cards to
place on your reception tables so that all your guests have the opportunity to
view your wedding pictures.
Engagement Portraits, Bridal Portraits, & Romance
Portraits
Engagement portraits are normally photographed a few weeks to a month after
booking your photographer. It's a great time to get to know your photographer,
and to see how they work. The sitting can be photographed at your choice of
location, or in the studio. Engagement portraits make great gifts for your
wedding guests, as well as wonderful keepsakes for yourself and family
members.
Bridal Portraits are photographed within a few months of the wedding. This gives
the brides the chance to see how she will look in her gown, with her hair styled
the way she intends to have it for the big day. We suggest having your florist
design a smaller version of your bouquet to use during the sitting. You may also
consider having your flower girl come with you and be photographed as well.
Romance Portraits are special portraits taken of the happy couple weeks or
even months after the ceremony. These portraits are normally photographed
outdoors, be it on the beach, or out in a field. The bride will wear her gown with
her hair styled in a more natural fashion, and the groom wears a button down
shirt and dress slacks. This gives the photographer the opportunity to take more
romantic images, with out the stress of the day or having to worry about soiling
the gown.

| Terms & Conditions |
- There is an additional $50 retainer fee due when booking your wedding. This fee is not
included in the package price. There is also a deposit due when booking your wedding
of 25% of the package. The remaining amount will be due 15 days before the wedding.
- We apologize in advance for any inconvenience, but we DO NOT work with wedding
planners. We like to work with the bride herself, and feel that wedding planners tend to
get in the way of our establishing a relationship with the bride.
- We are willing to photograph a wedding anywhere in the world, but traveling and hotel
fees will be charged for weddings further than 60 miles from Shelbyville, Illinois. We
charge $1 per mile after the first 60 miles, one way. If you do not have arrangements
made with a hotel in your area for discounted room rates (which hotels will do if you
book a certain number of rooms!), then we will book the least expensive hotel room
available on websites such as Hotwire.com, and will need to be reimbursed for the
charge.
- Prices subject to change without notice. Booking now will lock in the prices listed
above.
