Our Style
At Blaché Designs® you will find a unique style of wedding photography that we like to refer to as Wedding Photojournalism. We pride ourselves as being non-obtrusive yet thoroughly capturing your special day. We have found that our brides and grooms appreciated the candidness of the images yet still cherish the selection of more formal and family shots. Not only do we capture the special moments of your wedding, we also take the time to create artist pieces from those images to give you a unique and diverse collect of images to choose from.
Wedding Photography timeline
There are many details involved in planning a wedding timeline, especially when it comes to photography. It is important to first get your wedding date on our books. At the time of booking we will help you determine the best timeline for your wedding photography planning.
Things to consider:
>Engagement and Announcement photo session
>Formal Family photo session before wedding (including traveling relatives)
>Shower and planning party photos
>Rehearsal and rehearsal dinner photos
>Bride & Bridesmaids dressing/preparing
>Bride groom formals before wedding
>Quick family groups after ceremony
Information you will need to supply before the wedding:
>Names of wedding party members
>Name and relation of all family members that will be at the wedding
>Date and time of all events you wish us to photograph
>Time frame of wedding day
>List of "Must Have" photos
Making an appointment
The first step to booking us as your wedding photography is to set up an appointment to meet each other. It is important that we meet with both the bride and groom before the date is booked to assure that we are able to understand the expectations of both of you before we commit to capturing your special day.
At that appointment, scheduling and prices will be discussed.
Your wedding date will only be reserved when you have made the appropriate deposit towards your wedding package. Once you have made that deposit, the day is yours, we will not book another wedding for that day, no matter what time of the day your wedding is.
Packages and Pricing
Our wedding package prices vary depending on your need. Starting at $1100.00 for a basic coverage and album. Online Previewing is offered with all wedding packages for your friends and family to enjoy or place their own order.
