Whether your going to say "I do" in front of a crowd of people, or its just going to be your close family and friends. We have a package for you. Let me tell your love story. Well hello there, I'm Carrie a gung- ho photographer with a affinity for anything smothered in Nutella. Seriously though that stuff is so good. Nutella chocolate chip cookies are my favorite. So good! Anyways enough about the most important food group in the world. Let me tell you a little bit about myself. As you may have guessed I'm a photographer. I'm the sole owner of "Willow and Grace by C. Michelle Photography" which I founded in 2010. 

My specialty is weddings, engagements, and families and I love everything about my job. I love meeting with my clients and talking with them about their stories. I love capturing my clients love at their engagement session, or their bond with in the family session. I love editing their photos and creating albums and keepsakes that they will cherish for years to come. Sigh  I just love it all.

As someone who has been on the other side of the camera ( my wedding was 8 years ago already, holy moly) I totally understand the excitement, nerves and even stress that goes into planning a wedding. Think of me not just as your photographer, but as a friend that will do all she can to help make your wedding a smashing success. Lets do this together, so give me a call, hit the connect button at the top of the page, so we can start planning out the details.   

Before I get to the detail of how weddings work I want to go over my engagement sessions. Some of my wedding packages actually include a engagement session, so it is important that we go over them. The question I receive most about engagement sessions is "What are engagement photos for?" Everyone already knows we are getting married. 

That is a excellent question, and I have an excellent answer!

In addition to giving you a steamy, lovey- dovey hour or two with your soon-to-be-spouse, engagement sessions actually serve a utilitarian purpose. Many people use their engagements sessions for their "SAVE THE DATES," wedding planning websites, invitations to the wedding, or even as an announcement to the world that they are tying the knot. A lot of couples even use the images for thank you cards. All of which I can help design for you and order them and have them in your hot little hands so you can send them out. 

Not only that e- sessions gives you the chance to show off that ring of yours. Often it is hard to showcase it in a deserving way from a everyday point and shoot camera. I would wadge a guess that you have loads of people asking you for pictures of that bling.

As for how the e- session goes down, its all pretty straight forward. You and I work together to create a custom engagement session. For example we can head to the spot where you first met, or he popped the question. A local park, your favorite trail, the ocean, the mountains, or a place that just makes you bubble with excitement. The possibilities are really endless. 

Regarding what you wear. I always say to wear what your comfortable in. As we customize your session, with the location, flowers or props, I will give you tips on how to dress for your session. Outfit changes are a must. You want something casual and something glamorous. Long flowing dresses, and big tutu skirts are some of my favorites! Its not every day you get married... right, why not go all out.
