Best Tip For Exchanging Wedding Rings

The exchanging of rings is an essential part of traditional weddings. The wedding ring is symbolizes eternity. It is a circle with no beginning or end, an emblem of love and devotion, and also considered an agreement between families.

Unfortunately, many times the wedding photographer is unable to get a good shot when the bride and groom are putting the rings on each others’ hands. The couple isn’t usually considering how the moment will look on camera, understandably so, because many things are going through their minds at the time. The least of which is the camera angle of the rings.

Often times a person keeps their hands over the others’ after putting their ring on them. If your hands are blocking the shot when put on your fiancé’s ring, there’s nothing the photographer can do to get a good shot of it, short of stopping the ceremony to adjust your hands, of course.

What Type of Equipment Do We Use?

One of the most common questions we get asked as photographers and videographers is “what type of equipment do you use?” It’s a good question and I can certainly understand why clients ask. Though the artist (photographer/videographer) is more important than the tool (camera + lens), there’s no doubt about equipment making a difference in quality. Not only will high quality equipment make the end-product look better, but it’s also a sign of professionalism. While a good camera doesn’t equate to a good photographer, and a bad camera doesn’t equate to a bad photographer, the quality of equipment used gives you a good idea of the level of professionalism you can expect from them. Instead of just listing our equipment here, we also made a video showing you some of the equipment we use so you can actually see it with your own eyes. Continue reading→

Image with Text about saving money on DJ services

Planning an event can be a daunting task, especially weddings! That’s why there are entire career fields for event planning and specifically wedding planning. With weddings there are so many things to plan. You have to pick out a dress, rings, venue, cake, and many different vendors. Each decision is important to the success of your wedding. While this process can, and should, be fun and exciting, it can also be stressful. Choosing one vendor that offers several services can make your life easier.

Hiring a company to handle three services is like killing three birds with one stone, so to speak (why anyone would want to kill three birds is beyond me, but that’s another story). While having one company provide several services can be convenient, it doesn’t come without its caveats. If the company does a poor job, it may do poorly in more than one areas. But if you choose the company wisely and they do well then they’ll do well with every service hired them for. There are many reasons why it may be to your advantage to hire one company to provide several services. Though I can’t speak for how other companies run their business, I can tell you that there are two main benefits you get when hiring us for more than one service:

Save Money By Bundling Services Together
Better Teamwork

Why You Need A DJ For Your Wedding

When it comes to a wedding, the DJ plays a very important role in many ways. We get the party started by playing the right songs at the right time and keeping everyone dancing. A professional DJ can make sure the entire reception runs smoothly. From the toasts, cake cutting, special dances, and everything else–we’ll help you stay organized and ensure you and your guests have the time of your life. We provide professional entertainment at prices so affordable there’s no reason not to have a professional DJ for your wedding.

Your wedding is one of the most important days of your life. Not only do you need a good DJ, you need a good DJ with wedding experience. DJing a wedding is much different than any other event. An experienced club DJ can fail miserably when DJing their first wedding. Weddings usually have very mixed crowds, so the DJ will have to play music that appeals to all ages. The DJ plays music for two families on a special day for everyone, which is different from playing pop music at a club. Since every wedding is unique, the music should be too. There’s also a traditional format that weddings follow. Simply showing up and playing music is not enough. Continue reading→

Our goal with this blog is to enhance our client relationships and the entire industry overall.

Hopefully we get a lot of interaction, questions, and comments on this blog. So feel free to get involved as much as you’d like. If you’re a potential client thinking about booking us, hopefully this blog will give you a better idea of what we do and how we do it. If you’re another vendor in the industry, maybe you’ll learn a tip or two or maybe you have some experience you can share that we can benefit from too. Either way, it’s good to have more information about our industry so that we can all put on the best events we can.

Our goal is to combine this blog with the rest of our website, plus our videos on youtube, and our photos on Flickr to give a multi-media approach to getting to know us before hiring us.
