How I photograph a wedding
I will meet with you two weeks before the wedding to go through all the details, then start on the day by recording the bride getting ready at home or in a hotel followed by some formal pictures of the bride, bridesmaids and family. I then meet the groom and his party before the ceremony for more pictures before coverage during the ceremony (unless this is forbidden), formal and informal pictures of the guests and pictures of the newly-wed couple.
Coverage can be extended to allow me to capture the speeches, cake cutting and first dance together with some pictures of you at dusk.
The packages I offer
A standard package would include coverage up to when you sit down and include a coffee-table album. Coverage can be extended to the first dance and other extras include designer Italian albums, parents albums, prints and high-resolution CD that allows you to have your own prints or album made.
Please use the Contact page to tell me about your wedding and I can quote you a price according to the coverage and options you need.
Equipment I use
For photographers or anyone else who is curious about what I use to capture these images, I have use Canon 5D and 40D digital SLRs. More important are the lenses and I use high quality Canon lenses for the best performance in the the sometimes challenging conditions that weddings have to be recorded. My current lenses include the 70-200mm f2.8L IS, 16-35mm f2.8L, 300mm f4L, 17-55mm f2.8 IS and 10-22mm f3.5-4.5. I also use 550EX and 580EX speedlites with gels and a ST-E2 remote trigger for off-camera flash. I use Sandisk professional memory cards and a MacBook Pro 15 with Adobe Lightroom for image editing.
