Professional Wedding Photography

We offer professional, affordable wedding photography for $999 all day!

As a consumer, my first reaction to the $999 pricing would be: I am not going to get a quality photographer if I only spend $999. You get what you pay for.

My response to that is this:

I am not a photographer to make a fortune. The truth is, I passionately love photography, and I'm good at it! I enjoy weddings, celebrations, events, etc. That is why I am an wedding photographer. I also think that $999 is a fair amount of money for a hard day of work and for the editing that is required afterwards.

My professional background is in advertising & marketing, with experience designing wedding guides for local print publications--which is how I originally became involved in the wedding industry. Wedding photography is my full-time career and I am also a mom to my 13 year-old daughter.

Please note that I am a legitimate business: I have a business license through Gwinnett County, I have equipment and liability insurance through The Hartford, I am a member of the Professional Photographers of America, and I pay taxes! In other words, you are dealing with a professional, not some "fly by night" individual. Proof of license, certificate of insurance (COA), etc. can be provided -- some venues require these verifications.

My equipment:

My equipment: I currently use a professional grade Canon EOS 5D Mark II 21.1MP Full Frame CMOS Digital SLR Camera with Speedlite External Flash. My lenses include prime/fixed focal, telephoto, wide, fisheye, and zoom lenses that capture breathtaking photos. VERY IMPORTANT: I have multiple pieces of back-up equipment, including two Canon EOS 50D cameras & a back-up Speedlite External Flash, extra batteries, and multiple memory cards. If something fails, I have back-up.

Many "budget" photographers do not have spare lenses and cameras to keep on going without skipping a beat. I, thankfully, have the resources for insurance and replacements if my hardware fails. Please keep this in mind when shopping around. You should ask the photographer, "What happens if your camera fails during my wedding and/or reception?". If they don't have at least $10K invested in equipment, they are not qualified.

Once you receive your disks, any photos that you wish to have printed can be ordered through me from the printer at cost. I will only charge you what I am charged - wholesale prices. The prices are excellent for the quality of paper that you receive.

A $250 (20%) deposit is required to hold your date. The deposit is, of course, applied to your package price.

Bottom line: Don't waste your money on big packages and big promises that equal big bucks! Budget that money elsewhere, and book with me. I guarantee you will not be dissatisfied.
