About Me
"A great photograph is one that fully expresses what one feels, in the deepest sense, about what is being photographed." - Ansel Adams
"The subject matter is so much more important than the photographer." - Gordon Parks
I know that the choice of your wedding photographer is very important. Each wedding photographer has his or her own unique style, personality and packages. Choosing your wedding photographer is also very time consuming, I appreciate you taking your time and learning a little about me.
My style is a blend of traditional stylized poses and contemporary candid portraits. I love telling stories with my photographs, from your hair appointment and preparation of the reception hall, to dancing at the reception. I like to capture images that emphasize the emotion of the day and capture the spirit of the wedding. I also like to take pictures of details (like your dress, ring, shoes, table decorations, flowers), because they showcase your personality (after all you, did spend weeks choosing them). I realize that having formal (posed) pictures of your wedding party and family is important, so we will spend some time taking those as well.
During our initial consultation I would like to find out your vision for the wedding. I also would like to keep in contact during your wedding planning.
YOUR wedding day is about you and our goal is to make it as least stressful as possible.
All engagement photography work is on location, which I believe captures the places, ideas and things that bring two people together. I like to ask couples to come up with special activities that they share together, special places they enjoy, or where they first met for locations of engagement photos. This gives your photos a story you can share with friends, family, and generations to come.
Thank you for your consideration, I hope that I will be privileged enough to get a phone call from you and get the honor of capturing memories that you will cherish for years to come.
Steve Giese
