Services and fees - Wedding and Portrait Photography

"Sandra, words cannot express our gratitude. The photos are awesome, you exceeded our expectations, we could not have asked for better! Your talent, people skills and friendly nature is a credit to you!""
- Emma & Shannan (Christchurch)

For wedding and portrait photography, I offer a fully digital experience. One of the great advantages of digital photography is the ability to take as many photos as you like. You will usually end up with 350 to 500+ (minimum) high-resolution images written to CD.

When you receive the CD this is the equivalent of owning the "digital negative", which means that you can control your own printing needs. Many photographers keep the negatives and charge for every re-print - this is a huge hidden cost.

Another advantage of digital is that you can easily have any or all of your photos reproduced in Colour, Black-and-White, or Sepia at no extra cost.
