I've written about this in the past. If we pay attention to the minor or little detail in your photos while we are creating your photos a few things happen. We have to do no "fixing" like many of today's photographer feel they will just fix it later. The other thing is you have much nicer photos with faster delivery. We can deliver quickly because...

Why we do what we do.

We do not offer hourly packages. Never have, never will. We feel it's not fair to you to squeeze your day into what we feel like working. That's not want a wedding day is to us. We consider our time with you as "Full Day" coverage. Meaning, if we time out your day and we feel 11 hours is what is needed, then we have an 11-hour day with you. Most t...

How long will you have to wait for your photos to be delivered after your wedding?

November 11, 2024  •  Leave a Comment
Less than a week. Typically, if your wedding was Saturday, we'll have your photos ready by that Wednesday or Thursday. How? A few reasons. First, our photos are "clean" coming straight out of the cameras, meaning the exposure and lighting are right on the money and very little needs to be done to them. Second, we do not "overshoot". We have years...

Big scenes

November 07, 2024  •  Leave a Comment
Big scenes or an Epic Scene. That's what we call an image that encompasses a view with our couple place somewhere in the view of an image. This photo was from a recent wedding Lauren photographed at a park in New Brunswick.

That's when all married couples are invited to the dance floor and the DJ will ask those married less than so many years to step to the side of the dance floor until we have the longest married couple left.

Lauren and I have been a team for a long time. We work well together and usually know where the other is so we're not in each other photos.
