Your friend with a nice camera is not a wedding photographer!

We hear it all the time: "My friend got a new camera and shot my wedding.  We are devastated because the pictures didn't turn out."  Don't let this happen to you.

Friends are great resources when you need help with guest lists and throwing bachelorette parties, but wedding pictures will be handed down to your children and grandchildren.  They will be treasured memories that you, your family, and friends will adorn on their walls and desktops.

For this once in a lifetime day, with all the important people in your life, assembled under the same roof, don't trust your wedding pictures to an amateur, just to save a buck or two. It is an investment and well worth it!

Carrie & Matt

Carrie & Matt wedd at Tulsa Garden Center and chose black and lime as some of their colors.  Carrie is elegant inside and out and it really showed in her bridal style.  Sarah and Luke shot the big day and here's what Sarah had to say:  "I'm seriously so lucky!  It seems like everyone I've photographed this year is someone I'd have over to a BBQ in my back yard!  Carrie & Matt were such a loving couple, and so easy to work with.  They certainly made our jobs easy.  Congrats you two!"
