Planning your wedding is one of the most exciting yet overwhelming experiences of your life. Amidst all the decisions, choosing the right wedding photographer is key to preserving your special day forever. I’m here to make this process seamless, enjoyable, and deeply personal. Your love story matters to me, and I’m honored to be a part of your journey. Here’s what you can expect when we work together—and how I promise to care for you every step of the way.
1. Initial Consultation: Understanding Your Vision
Your wedding story is unique, and I want to capture it authentically. During our initial consultation, we’ll sit down (virtually or in person) to talk about your vision, style preferences, and the moments that mean the most to you. Whether you’re dreaming of candid storytelling or elegant portraits, this is my chance to get to know you as a couple—what makes you laugh, what’s important to you, and how I can bring your love story to life.
Pro Tip: Bring inspiration! Share your Pinterest boards, favorite photos, or even a list of must-capture moments (like your first look, your dad’s reaction, or a special heirloom). These details help me understand your heart.
2. Customized Photography Packages
Every wedding is different, and your photography should reflect that. I’ll work with you to create a package that fits your unique needs, timeline, and budget. From intimate elopements to grand celebrations, my goal is to give you options that feel just right. Some of my packages include:
- Full-day coverage or various hourly options
- Engagement sessions (a great way for us to get comfortable together!)
- Online galleries with high-resolution images
- A digital print release for your keepsakes
If there’s something extra you’re envisioning, let’s talk about it—I’m all about creating a plan that works for you.
3. Pre-Wedding Planning: Creating a Shot List
I’m a big believer in planning ahead so that your wedding day feels stress-free. Before your big day, we’ll work together to create a customized timeline and shot list. I’ll guide you through what works best, but I’ll also listen to your priorities—whether that’s capturing your intricate decor, those quiet getting-ready moments, or the joyful chaos of the dance floor. To make sure I have every detail covered, I’ll send you a pre-wedding questionnaire a month before your wedding date. This helps me gather all the important information and ensure I’m fully prepared to capture your day perfectly.
4. On the Wedding Day: A Seamless Experience
Your wedding day will be filled with love, laughter, and so many emotions—and I’ll be there to capture them all while blending seamlessly into the background. My priority is making sure you feel comfortable and natural in front of the camera, so you can fully enjoy the day. I’ll gently guide you when needed but also let the genuine moments unfold naturally.
Expect:
- A mix of candid moments and beautifully composed portraits
- Quick adjustments for lighting and composition to make every shot perfect
- Calm, encouraging energy—because I’m here to support you, not add to your stress
I’m not just your photographer—I’m your cheerleader, problem-solver, and an extra set of hands if you need them.
5. Post-Wedding Magic: The Editing Process
After your wedding, I pour my heart into editing each image to ensure they tell your story beautifully. I carefully curate and refine every photo to highlight the emotions and details of the day. You can expect your final gallery to be delivered within six weeks, filled with timeless black-and-whites, vibrant color edits, and everything in between. My goal is to create images that feel as genuine as the moments they capture.
6. Beyond the Wedding: Album Design & Prints
Your wedding photos deserve to be more than just digital files. I offer professionally designed albums and prints to turn your memories into tangible heirlooms. There’s nothing like flipping through a wedding album or seeing a framed photo on your wall to bring those moments back to life. Let’s create something you’ll treasure for generations.
Why I Do What I Do
Photography isn’t just my job; it’s my passion. I genuinely care about the couples I work with, and I’m honored to play a role in one of the most important days of your life. I believe in capturing the real, raw, beautiful moments—the ones that make you laugh, cry, and fall in love all over again. I want to take the time to get to know you because your story deserves to be told authentically.
From the grandest moments to the tiniest touches, your wedding deserves to be captured with care, creativity, and heart. If you’re ready to make your wedding memories last a lifetime, I’d love to hear from you! Reach out today to schedule your consultation or learn more about my packages at www.eileenpi.com/connect.
I can’t wait to meet you and help tell your story!
