Q.
I heard digital is not as good as film?
A.
We have used both digital and film, and we prefer digital.
Our technical background in graphic design, so we are
able to take advantage of digital to its fullest extent
with Photoshop. Since we use a high resolution camera,
the digital images can be enlarged to at least a 16"
x 20" print and have no blurriness.

Since we do not use film, there is no limit on the number
of images we take.

photographed?

We do encourage our couples to inform us of specific
requests. Also, you should have a family member act
as coordinator for these group pictures.
Q:
Do you take any traditional photographs of the families
and bridal party?
A:
Yes, If that is what you desire. We understand that
many brides still want some individual photos with bridesmaids
or family and some formal group photographs either before
or after the ceremony.

of the ceremony?

There is enough lighting in most churches to photograph
without the use of a flash.
