A: We know everyone hopes for a warm sunny day when they get married.  But, we always encourage embracing whatever weather comes your way.  We can tell you from experience that “bad” weather doesn’t mean you're going to have a bad day or that you'll end up with bad photos. We’ll help prepare you for rain (and we come completely geared with raincoats for ourselves and our camera's!), and we will make the most of your day regardless of the weather. We promise, if you keep what's important in the forefront of your mind (you're getting MARRIED!), you’ll end up having a blast and your photos will be amazing and full of memories for a lifetime of stories!

Q: I'm getting married on Mackinac Island, outside, and IT IS RAINING!  What now?

A: Yes!  We go through every single photograph, choose the best images, and carefully adjust them individually for color, white balance, and sharpen for printing.

Q: Do you edit all the images that we will receive?

A: We believe in promoting self love and body positivity, so we don’t alter the way you (or any of your guests!) look other than skin blemishes or something temporary that you had no control over (For example: acne.  If you break out on your wedding day, any image that you have printed through us, or put in your album, we will do our best to remove the acne.  Now tan lines, you have control over them! So, no, we don't remove tan lines from 100's of images.). 

Q: Can you photoshop me?

A: Our shooting style is natural, timeless, and romantic.  There are NO TRENDS and NO AWKWARD POSES around here.  We will help guide you so that you feel comfortable and relaxed.  We promise, we will have fun and it won't be nearly as bad as you think!

Q: We don't feel like we photograph well and are super awkward in front of a camera.  Can you help us?

A: Every collection includes an online gallery with downloading. This makes it easy to put your images on your computer, share with friends and family, and post to your social media. Also from your gallery, you'll be able to order high quality prints directly from our lab.

Q: How will we receive our photographs?

A: Of course!  We LOVE photographing the carriage ride portion of the day!!  And NO, we will NOT be riding in the carriage with you.  We have bikes, and will follow along.  The carriage ride should be a fun, romantic, time for the TWO of you.  And besides, how would you get pictures of you riding in the carriage down Main Street, if we're in the carriage with you?

Q: I am getting married on Mackinac Island and am taking a carriage ride.  Do you photograph the carriage ride?

A: Engagement sessions are finished in 2 weeks. Wedding photos are finished in 3 weeks. Instagram posts, blog posts, Facebook previews are posted within a week. Just to keep you from getting too anxious!

Q: What is your turnaround time?

A: No.  We are photographers, 100% through and through. Video is an entirely different skill set, and we leave that in the hands of those with knowledge and a passion for it!

Q: Do you offer videography?

A: Over the past 11 years, we have photographed over 300 hundred weddings. 
We are fortunate to have witnessed hundreds of couples celebrate their destination wedding all over Mackinac Island and throughout the states of Michigan, Ohio, Tennessee, Alabama, North Carolina, and Texas. We have also photographed destination weddings in Italy and Guatemala!

Q: How many weddings have you photographed?

A: We are happily located on Mackinac Island, and we LOVE to travel!  We actively take on several out-of-state and out-of-the-countries weddings per year!

Q: Where are you based, and do you travel?

A: We know everyone hopes for a warm sunny day when they get married.  But, we always encourage embracing whatever weather comes your way.  We can tell you from experience that “bad” weather doesn’t mean you're going to have a bad day or that you'll end up with bad photos.

A: Our shooting style is natural, timeless, and romantic.  There are NO TRENDS and NO AWKWARD POSES around here.  We will help guide you so that you feel comfortable and relaxed.  We promise, we will have fun and it won't be nearly as bad as you think!

Q: We don't feel like we photograph well and are super awkward in front of a camera.  Can you help us?

A: Of course!  We LOVE photographing the carriage ride portion of the day!!  And NO, we will NOT be riding in the carriage with you.  We have bikes, and will follow along.  The carriage ride should be a fun, romantic, time for the TWO of you.  And besides, how would you get pictures of you riding in the carriage down Main Street, if we're in the carriage with you?

Q: I am getting married on Mackinac Island and am taking a carriage ride.  Do you photograph the carriage ride?

A: Engagement sessions are finished in 2 weeks. Wedding photos are finished in 3 weeks. Instagram posts, blog posts, Facebook previews are posted within a week.  Just to keep you from getting too anxious!

Q: What is your turnaround time?

A: No.  We are photographers, 100% through and through. Video is an entirely different skill set, and we leave that in the hands of those with knowledge and a passion for it!

Q: Do you offer videography?

A: Over the past 11 years, we have photographed over 300 hundred weddings.   We are fortunate to have witnessed hundreds of couples celebrate their destination wedding all over Mackinac Island and throughout the states of Michigan, Ohio, Tennessee, Alabama, North Carolina, and Texas. We have also photographed destination weddings in Italy and Guatemala!

Q: How many weddings have you photographed?

A: We are happily located on Mackinac Island, and we LOVE to travel!  We actively take on several out-of-state and out-of-the-countries weddings per year!

Q: Where are you based and do you travel?

A: We know everyone hopes for a warm sunny day when they get married.  But, we always encourage embracing whatever weather comes your way.  We can tell you from experience that “bad” weather doesn’t mean you're going to have a bad day or that you'll end up with bad photos. We’ll help prepare you for rain (and we come completely geared with raincoats for ourselves and our camera's!), and we will make the most of your day regardless of the weather. We promise, if you keep what's important in the forefront of your mind (you're getting MARRIED!), you’ll end up having a blast and your photos will be amazing and full of memories for a lifetime of stories!

Q: I'm getting married on Mackinac Island, outside, and IT IS RAINING!  What now?

A: Yes!  We go through every single photograph, choose the best images, and carefully adjust them individually for color, white balance, and sharpen for printing.

Q: Do you edit all the images that we will receive?

A: We believe in promoting self love and body positivity, so we don’t alter the way you (or any of your guests!) look other than skin blemishes or something temporary that you had no control over (For example: acne.  If you break out on your wedding day, any image that you have printed through us, or put in your album, we will do our best to remove the acne.  Now tan lines, you have control over them! So, no, we don't remove tan lines from 100's of images.). 

Q: Can you photoshop me?

A: Every collection includes an online gallery with downloading. This makes it easy to put your images on your computer, share with friends and family, and post to your social media. Also from your gallery, you'll be able to order high quality prints directly from our lab.

Q: How will we receive our photographs?

A: Our shooting style is natural, timeless, and romantic.  There are NO TRENDS and NO AWKWARD POSES around here.  We will help guide you so that you feel comfortable and relaxed.  We promise, we will have fun and it won't be nearly as bad as you think!
