Digital Negatives vs. Wedding AlbumMarch 15th, 2011

It goes without saying that we became misty eyed when Heather presented us with our completed album. It is something that we will treasure forever. The bride and groom would naturally be pleased with an album featuring themselves on their special day, but what would the tougher critics aka our parents think? They were nothing short of amazed.

If those aren’t the words of a satisfied customer, I don’t know what is!

Green Bride Guide FeatureSeptember 20th, 2010

Though each and every job teaches me something new, and I am happy with the work I produce with all of my customers… it is actually very time consuming, difficult and a bit of luck to get published.
