The Wedding photo Time Line page 1 of 4
The following 4 pages cover the photographic time line with sample photo's for the full wedding package that I offer. The items range from the initial consultation, the engagement session, and the the entire wedding day, and finally the post processing I do with the Photographs. The times and items are general guide lines only, to give couples who are interested an idea of my styles and how the day progresses. All details will be discussed and finalized prior to the wedding day.

If the couple prefers a formal stop here then I may have to consider hiring an assistant for this task. Currently I have two well appreciated and trusted assistants for tasks such as this. Again we will discuss this during the appointment prior to the wedding date. |

The different angles I focus on creates unique pictures while at the same time allowing for collages during post processing. |

Capturing Others at the Ceremony During Ceremony |
While I am circling the bride and groom I look for, and take other photos including family and the wedding party. This is also great opportunity to take photo's of grand parents, parents and extended family. |

Symbolic Gestures During Ceremony |
As the end of the ceremony approaches several key photo remain. These are the symbolic gesture of two becoming one, the first kiss and signing of the registry. |    The symbolic gesture of two becoming one is either done with candles or the pouring together of different colored sand into one flask. These moments are so cute, because they never go as planned. I make sure I have my camera ready because of the real smiles by both the bride a groom when it doesn't quite work out :-). Either one of the candles goes out, sand gets spilt, or the best= when one pours their sand at a pace faster then the other. The real smiles I catch are treasured by me and I am sure also by the bride a groom. |
