What
is Freestyle Wedding Photography?
Freestyle
refers to a free-flowing technique used by just a few
photographers around the world. It’s a style that
is best suited to telling a story, wanting to use maximum
creativity when doing so and making sure that everyone
involved has a whole lot of fun! It captures the heart
& soul of an event.
What
type of photographs are created using the FREESTYLE
approach?
Freestyle wedding photography blends classic & romantic
poses, relaxed & casual shots, photojournalistic,
high fashion, edgy styling and creates a unique look
from nearly any location.
Can
any photographer shoot this way?
Shooting weddings is a very demanding responsibility.
It requires confidence, the ability to communicate well
with others, deal with “surprises”, be highly
organized, and often times the ability to entertain.
As with most professionals who are really good at what
they do, a good Freestyle Photographer makes it "look"
easy.
What
kind of equipment does the FREESTYLE wedding photographer
use?
The freestyle photographer travels light and fast. There
is a reason for this. Big bulky equipment slows you
down and creates restrictions. Of course only the very
best cameras and lenses are used. This is essential
when you combine the creative eye and good quality image
capture that top notch cameras deliver. A lot of the
magic that is captured in Freestyle comes from the ability
to sculpt and utilize available light to create memorable
photographs.
How
many images are usually in the FREESTYLE wedding?
There are many variables that determine the number of
images you can expect. Because Freestyle does not use
a “cookie– cutter” approach, where
the story is the heart and soul of Freestyle, the number
varies. A good rule of thumb is between 500 on the lower
end, but often 800 images or more.
Is
FREESTYLE more expensive?
Some brides make the mistake of choosing their photographer
based on price alone. A top-notch FREESTYLE wedding
photographer typically commands the best price, but
there is a reason for this. You don’t go to MacDonalds
and expect 5 star cuisine. Do you? It is the same with
photographers, you get what you pay for. The true value
is in the talent, skill, attitude, experience, work,
creativity and confidence that a top notch photographer
brings to your wedding day memories, and the photographs
that you, your friends and family will enjoy for years
and years.

what a few of our Brides & Grooms have to say:
Hey Jonah - We have had a blast flipping
through the photos! They have brought back great
memories of the day, and how much fun we all were having
(despite the heat!) I have new favorites, (K &
J in black in white w/ the colored stained glass
- how cool is that!!!) and the group shot of my
entire family is super. I know my dad will be
very pleased to have a photograph of us all. The DVD
is incredible! Again, we are very pleased. Take
care ... Charlotte
