THE WEDDING EXPERIENCE

 
 

Welcome!

 

I hope you're visiting with the excitement of just receiving a stunning ring given to you by the love of your life...so in lament's terms, that must mean you are engaged!! Or maybe you're here just to check out some pretty amazing couples and the fun we have photographing and videoing gorgeous weddings, you've come to the right place and I'm so glad that you found us!


 

FIRST THINGS FIRST

Let’s Vibe

If you imagine looking back at your wedding and seeing cheerful photographs featuring genuine smiles and joyful laughs with your new spouse, then you can stop your search. But in all seriousness, if you’re wanting happy portraits and a great experience, let’s chat more! Then we can move onto the first step of the booking process!

SECONDLY

Getting Official

First we will set up a video chat so we can iron out the details. We will discuss what you and your fiancé are envisioning, a potential wedding timeline + details of the day, and from there I can get a good sense of what is most important to make your wedding day how you imagined. Once you’ve decided to move forward, it’s easy to make things officially official by signing your contract online and making your first payment on your deposit.


GETTING TO THE FUN STUFF

Engagements

Shake those nervous feelings and come laugh for an hour and a half with me while I teach you some posing and how to get effortless “candid” looking portraits! We pride ourselves in making all of our couples feel totally comfortable in front of the camera and to not hold back your personalities. Plus you’ll want to remember this special journey of your lives.

Timeline Guidance

This is a very important part in your wedding planning, especially if you do not have a wedding planner on your team. Regardless we will set a meeting about 6 weeks prior your wedding date so we can go through all the details so we are completely prepared-and you don’t have to do any planning last minute! We often help with creating custom timelines that fit your wedding day so we can achieve all those amazing detail shots during your getting ready, laughing friend shots, dreamy bridal portraits, and creative and carefree sunset and nighttime photos. We will also discuss how this affects your videography coverage and when use your photobooth time wisely.


FINALLY

PARTY TIME! It’s Your Wedding Day!

Time has flown by and the day has arrived! This is the part where you relax, CELEBRATE, and enjoy the moment while we do all the work. I believe in a documentary experience for 90% of your wedding day, so we never work less than 7 hours on a full wedding day. We make it a priority that we capture all the moments we can so you can relive the day over and over. We tell want to tell your story in a timeless, and creative way that you can look back on and feel like you’re reliving your wedding day.

THERE’S MORE

Reveal Party Day

That's right, there's another time where you get to celebrate your wedding, surrounded by closest friends and family. This is one of the most exciting parts of the whole process for me, and I can't wait for the anticipation to be over for you to finally view your wedding portraits and your wedding film! You decide where to have the party + invite your friends and family. I make it a big deal with a custom slideshow, dessert goodies (hellooooo Bethel Bakery!), and time to scroll through your hundreds (and I mean hundreds!) of photos and fall in love all over again with your spouse and the special day you had together! It’s always a fun day to look forward to!

LAST STEP

Album Designs + Prints

After your wedding day is over, your memories are waiting to be enjoyed on print and off your computer-yes something other than Instagram. We specialize in helping in the whole process of finding your very favorite portraits, choosing wall design options, creating stunning heirloom album designs that fits your style and shows off all the love and fun you want to relive each time you see your wedding day portraits, and whatever else you're imagining for your photos! It's a great feeling when you're able to look at a portrait and transport yourself to that very day and feel the emotions you were feeling. You deserve the entire experience, from beginning to end. You'll be a part of the HOP family for life, and that really means a lot to us!
