When you consider that your photographs will capture one of the most significant events of your life, it’s easy to see why your photographer is an important part of the wedding day. Photographs will bring back the vivid memories of your wedding for the rest of your lives.
Jeffrey Dupre of Island Photo says, “Recent trends in wedding photography have evolved beyond traditional portraiture to include a wider variety of styles and moods. Journalistic photography is a new term coined for a more casual photography style with emphasis on candids, informal settings, available light, and unposed moments, often with subjects looking away from the camera. This approach, combined with the traditional classic portraiture is a perfect combination for today’s wedding pictures.”
Be sure to have the cherished moments during your carriage ride photographed. “Riding around the Island in a beautiful wedding carriage is a memorable event captured on film only by someone with lots of experience,” says Christi Dupre of Island Photo. She also notes, “to provide this coverage we carry all our equipment on our bicycles, allowing us to take photographs of the bridal couple in their carriage at a variety of beautiful locations.”
Black and white photographs continue to be a popular addition to the wedding photo album. The rich grain and contrast of black and white prints are best suited for bridal portraits and journalistic candids.
Professionally videotaping your wedding
documents your Mackinac Island images like nothing else
can. The astonishing beauty of the bride and groom in a
Mackinac setting create a fairytale story beautifully
captured on video. It not only records sight and sound
but allows you to capture those special moments of your
wedding day forever.
Mark Oldenburg of Take One Video Productions explains, “Being familiar with the local churches, gazebos and hotels is the only way your wedding will be adequately covered, as the logistics of covering the events of a Mackinac Island wedding are unique.” Like your photographer, the videographer should have the right equipment including a bicycle to follow your wedding carriage.
For a really special reception idea, Tim Stoinski and his team from Omega Studios can produce a montage of video taken on the wedding day. The edited presentation is then projected onto a screen to be played during the reception.
Photo and video package prices vary depending on the amount of time spent, the number of photographs taken and the number of cameras used. There should be one package that fits your particular budget. Every Saturday from May until the end of October is busy with weddings, so be certain to reserve your photographer and videographer well in advance.
