HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR STYLE?

our style is really a hybrid. we have so many inspirations that come from so many different places and try to implement them in our images. we love the raw emotion of photojournalism and the seductive mysterious look of fashion photography. in short, our style is something we like to call "fashion photojournalism". we believe in romantic lighting, incredible backgrounds and choosing locations very carefully. as far as our photojournalistic side, we never interrupt a moment. we never pose situations that are already so magical on their own. we are an observer most of the time with very limited intrusion only when it is desired to achieve a particular artistic vision. ninety percent of our images are completely natural an unposed.

WE LOVE YOUR STYLE BUT WOULD LOVE TO HAVE

SOME TRADITIONAL PORTRIATURE.

IS THIS SOMETHING YOU DO?

we do traditional portraiture at most of our weddings. even though the most modern brides still want the heirloom that family portraiture creates. we do not, however, conduct portraits sessions in a traditional way. instead, they are very loose, fun, and show off your personality. we will spend only 20 to 45 minutes on any posed photographs out of a typical 9 hour day.

DO YOU SHOOT WITH FILM OR DIGITAL?

we are 100 percent digital. the creative latitude that digital gives is beyond compare. when we shoot, we not only shoot for the moment, but have a clear vision of what the finished image will look like. By shooting digitally, The possibilities are limitless! And Yes, The quality of digital is as good as film- usually better.

DO WE HAVE TO SEE EACH OTHER BEFORE

THE CEREMONY?

We do not make you see each other before the ceremony if it is very important to you to keep that tradition. We do, However, provide a time called the "FIRST LOOK" for you to come together alone before the ceremony , to share a special moment. This also provides us an opportunity to capture you at your freshest earlier on in the day before your energy is drained. We have often found that after the ceremony, you are more worn out than you realize as emotions run very high on such an exciting day! The photos of you and your spouse are the most important and we want you to feel relaxed and look your best!
