Engagement Portrait Session:
Engagement portrait sessions are fun and highly recommended! Scheduled in advance of your wedding at a location of your choice, these sessions are more casual and provide the opportunity for us to get to know each other before the "big day!"
After the session, you will receive a custom 16X20 print at no extra charge. This enlargement will come with an extra-wide matte—suitable for guests to sign at your wedding! I supply the archival pens and at your reception, your guests will have fun autographing the matte and sending you their best wishes. Later we can swap your engagement picture for your favorite wedding photograph. It creates an amazing souvenir from your special day! I recommend this session so much that I offer it at a great discount!

PRODUCTS
Album, Book, or Magazine:
As part of your wedding package, you will receive a private and shareable high-resolution digital online gallery, at no extra charge. But everybody loves a beautiful keepsake! Choose from a quality linen album, a modern style book, or even a fun magazine! Only carefully custom-edited photographs will be used, creating a visual storybook that will enable you to remember and relive all the unique moments of your wedding—destined to become a cherished family heirloom. There are nearly endless options, so the prices are quite varied—let's discuss which option is best for you. Weddings fly by swiftly, and afterwards your photographs will ensure that you will remember every single precious moment. Together, we will create timeless memories of your special day.
Prints and Enlargements:
As part of your wedding package, you will receive a private and shareable high-resolution digital online gallery, at no extra charge. From this gallery, you are welcome to download and print any of your wedding photographs. However, I am happy to provide you with the highest quality services and archival prints and enlargements. I offer the following:
Print Services:
-
Transform your digital files (prints sold separately)
-
Toning: To add variety to your gallery, transform any digital image to true black and white or warm sepia-tone: Free!
-
Colorizing: This technique transforms only part of your image to black and white with beautiful results. For example, turn your favorite bridal portrait to black and white while your flower bouquet remains in full color: $100 per digital image.
Museum-grade Quality Archival Prints:
Beautiful enlargements are wonderful keepsakes and make excellent gifts. I use only the top-of-the line printing services to ensure the finest quality, resolution, and color accuracy. We offer a wide range of sizes, styles, and materials. Choose from canvas, fine art paper, and metal in sizes ranging from 2x3 inch (“wallets”) to 16x20 inch enlargements or even 9x20 inch “panoramics.” There are nearly endless options, so the prices are quite varied—let's discuss which option is best for you.
