Should I have a Professional Photographer?
Sat, 29 Sep 2012
Is there such a thing as beautiful wedding photos at a truly affordable price? Yes there is!
During my many years in the wedding industry as a Marriage Celebrant in Brisbane, I have met some wonderful wedding providers I work with some on a regular basis.
In these tough economic times, couples are always looking for ways to cut expenses. Some couples think that with the technology of today and the abundance of iPhones and digital photos, that the appointed wedding photographer is one service that is no longer required.
I have often worked with a truly fabulous wedding photographer named Helen Tidy. Helen consistently delivers beautiful affordable true colour wedding photographs. Helen has 25 years experience and has won numerous awards for her photography including ABIA (Australian Bridal Industry Awards). Helen has had her photos published and featured in magazines, booklets and newspapers. Some of her photos now have a permanent home in the archives of The Queensland State Library. You can be assured of quality and creativity as well as personal, friendly, reliable service without the over-inflated prices that usually goes with the word 'WEDDING'.
Helen’s wedding packages range from $595 to $1,395 and represent excellent value as the couple receives not only a selection of developed enlargement size photos, but others taken will be provided on a USB that can be developed at your leisure.
Helen also provides packages for naming ceremonies and family portraits for only $350.
I have featured a number of Helen’s beautiful photographs on my website or you can go directly to helentidyphotography.com.au for more information or to contact her.
The benefits of having a professional photographer are the little things such as the attention to detail that only the professional can provide e.g. the positioning of the couple and others to be photographed; checking ties are straight and jackets are sitting properly; that ladies outfits are not spoilt by the large handbag on their shoulder; the removal of sunglasses; the corsage and button holes are sitting properly; the right location and so on. As a professional whose work is on show, Helen ensures that her photos are taken in the right light and with the right expression as well as those beautiful candid shots that we all love.
Couples often tell me that they’re not having a photographer as they simply cannot afford one. Many couples have later regretted that decision as that moment is now lost and gone forever and cannot be recreated. And the everlasting memories that they thought would be captured by family and friends did not eventuate. You don’t have to have the big expensive album but it is lovely to have beautiful timeless photos that capture the essence of your day.
Helen can provide this all for you and so much more.
