Wedding shots in the studio?

Did you know you can have your official wedding portraits done at the studio?  As soon as the ceremony is over you can come back to our studio and sit for some beautifully posed portraits that will grace any wall at home.  Instead of the usual rushed shots while everyone is trying to talk to you, come and get some relaxed, controlled pictures where you are perfectly posed and looking how you want to be.  Meanwhile, the guests are mingling and having something to eat.  You show up an hour later and are announced into the reception to join in with the festivities!  Done.

Wedding photography styles...HELP!

You're looking around various websites for a wedding photographer and each one tells you what style of photography they shoot.  Great, right?  But what does it all mean?  Well, let us set the record straight for you right now.  Here are the styles of photography offered by photographers and a description of what they mean...

Traditional: The photographer works solely from a
pre-determined "shot list" of images requested by the
bride and groom. The list generally includes posed
shots, as well as, candid images taken at
pre-arranged events (i.e., bride and groom cutting the
cake).

- Photojournalism: The photographer moves through
the wedding capturing special moments as he or she
finds them. Generally, the photographer does not use
an established list of shots.

- Creative: Photographers place the subjects in
certain settings to take advantage of good lighting or
beautiful backgrounds. Once the scene is set, the
couple and their party are free to be themselves,
resulting in a more spontaneous feel. Unlike the
photojournalism style, creative photography takes
advantage of the photographer's artistic judgment
rather than simply capturing a series of moments.

- Fine Art: Photographers blend a specific art form
(such as Surrealism) with actual images, candid or
prearranged, from the wedding.
