The Benefits of Working with Wedding Photography and Films

Everywhere you look, you’ll find a wedding photographer. From lower-end of a few hundred bucks to upwards of $10,000 or more for a professional, finding the right one can be a tremendous challenge.

Well, Carole and I want to take a few minutes and explain the benefits of working with us, not so much the services you get, but what it will do for you after your wedding day. You can also learn more about our ideal clients and see if you’re a good fit.

Your Smile

Perhaps the biggest benefit of working with Carole or myself (or both) is that the smile on your face will be so huge when you see the wedding images or films that we produce for you as a married couple.

Placing canvas prints on the wall in your home, smaller ones at your office, gifting them to your parents and sharing your wedding film with friends and family, it’s those emotions after the wedding day that people hire us for, not so much the wedding day.

Having that smile while remembering that special moment when you looked at each other, said something funny or memorable, just knowing that your loved one was and still is your true love.

The Happy-Sad Moments

Ah, those moments where you are so happy you’re teary-eyed. Moments where you are filled with such abundant joy and happiness, yeah, thats what we do, we protect memories like that so years after the wedding day you can see the wedding images and videos and invoke those emotions once again.

While others sell you on what they offer for the wedding day, we go beyond that and also want to share with you the benefits you get with hiring us in the process.

We’re not just collecting images and clips throughout the day, we’re encapsulating your memories for life.

Everlasting Memories

Wedding photographers and videographers will often tell you that they create everlasting memories and thats true.

But we take things a step further.

See, long after the wedding day, we’re still working for you and you’ll most likely have forgotten about that, it’s our 10-year warranty.

It’s not so much having a warranty, it’s what it does for you, it gives you peace-of-mind, very few people do that.

Over the many years working in the wedding industry, I’ve had a handful of past clients lose their wedding memories.

Sometimes it was because of a fire that destroyed their home, I had a couple a few years ago tell me their dog ate their DVD’s and Blu-Rays and yeah, that actually happened.

My point here is that if something ever happens to your wedding photos or videos, we have the master copies tucked away in a couple of places, like a fire resistant safe and a SSD Network appliance too.

Most of my much younger, less experienced counterparts don’t offer anything like that, they should.

You Get More Value at a Lower Cost

We tend to focus on couples looking for wedding photographers in the $3,000-$4,000 and offer them better value under that rate.

While price is somewhat of a determining factor of a professionals quality, we know that price isn’t everything.

Carole and I know that you’re spending a lot of money at your wedding day and with that, we want to make sure that you you get the worth in what we provide.

Yes, we COULD be charging far more for our services, but we don’t.

Why, you might ask?

Because we value YOU more than the money in your pocketbook. Building a true relationship with you is not just a commitment up through the wedding day, it’s years afterward.

We rank slightly under the Middle-of-the-Road in Price

When it comes to spending money for the wedding, wedding photography is usually third in line top expenses and it often doesn’t include video. We’ve taken the best of what we can offer and combined them into a combination package.

In fact, when you look at all the surrounding competition, you’ll find that we rank just under the middle-of-the-road pricing for both wedding images and video.

We’re Gatekeepers that Offer a LOT of experience

Finally, we are gatekeepers to you remembering and reliving those joy filled moments. Carole and I love knowing that the images taken or the videos watch bring joy to your everyday life and they will be doing that for decades after the fact.

A few of the unique things that we bring to the table that others simply can’t include:

  • 22 Years of Weddings

    • With more than 22 years of experience, we’ve seen a lot over the years. From how weddings come together, to tips on saving money, tricks to get through the wedding easily, vendors to stay away from, vendors to work with, we’re more than just a vendor.

    • We’re wedding experts with a wealth of knowledge and we help clients and even couples that don’t book with us.

  • We’re a Married Couple

    • Yup, we’re a married couple and we understand marriage. Sometimes it’s great, other times, not so much. We laugh together, cry together, sometimes we disagree, but at the end of the day, we know what true love is like and we know what you want with regards to your own wedding.

  • We offer BOTH wedding photography and videography

    • One of the truly unique things about us is that we offer both services under one roof and we were the first couple to offer both in SWVA. In fact, there is only one other couple that offers both services for far more with much less experience.

  • Type of Value Offered

    • Unlike professionals that cost more, we offer more value for your money, and that goes a long way with your budget. We want to be fair to you while still being able to make money to keep our business going in the process. Our value is greater than the cost.

  • Couples Choose us Because of Our Experience

    • While others have a handful of years in the industry, they tend to make more mistakes. I should know, I was once in my 20’s and starting my career in the wedding industry too.

    • Couples hire us because we bring a lot of valuable experience to the table, more than just what we offer.

    • We help couples with great advice along their wedding planning journey and we’re there for them long after their first kiss too.
