Lighting matters in wedding photography. As a result, we go above and beyond by bringing the top quality lighting and equipment to ensure that your images are nothing less than exceptional.

In fact they do not realize that their venues do not provide this and often times go without. However, we will make sure your event has the elevated look lighting provides. Firstly, we use spotlights to light up the grand entrance entrance. Then,  the first dance, Also during parent dances and for speeches. In the event that it is dark out the spotlights light up the speakers and the bride and groom so that your guests can watch comfortably and enjoy the event.

In effect, we always shoot with cameras that have dual card slots. This ensures your photos and video are recorded to 2 cards simultaneously on your wedding day. Because of this your data will always be safe. After your wedding we also store your data on multiple hard drives to avoid losing your data from a faulty hard drive crash. Please make sure your photographer always has a back up plan in place.
