Weddings
Planning your big day? You can relax, knowing that the team at Artisan Studio are confident professionals who trained and very experienced in photographing weddings!
We mix photo journalism with a more traditional style i.e. posed shots, and formal shots, as well as including shots that you would like to have with family and friends – we’ll also suggest other shots that may help to make your photos unique. We believe that it is important that the story of your special day is told beautifully, the way that you want it.
We use high quality professional equipment, with complete sets of backup equipment and can work equally well with natural light, low light and with professional lighting gear.
Above all, we know how to create beautiful photographs, designed to capture the glamour, the emotion, and the special story of your day.
After your wedding day, your photos are carefully edited and enhanced. You also receive a range of black and white and artistically treated photographs. These are presented to you on DVD in high resolution format. You are also given an online gallery for your friends and family to view.
Depending on your wedding photography package, you may receive one of our emotional wedding slideshows, or one of our very special wedding albums, imported from the USA.
For your convenience, we have also added an A la Carte menu containing items which may make planning your day easier eg. thank you cards.
