A general rule of thumb is to allocate 15-20% of your wedding budget to photography, as in the end, the images are all that remain. Make sure the team taking these images know, love and are experienced in wedding photography.
Top benefits to a wedding with Fusionriver Photography:
- An entire day with professional photographer Myke Healy, i.e. the owner and principle photographer of Fusionriver Photography always leads the wedding shoot.
- No time restrictions. When you hire us to cover your day, we are there from pre-ceremony preparation through to late night dancing. Why watch the clock?
- No need to hire a videographer. We shoot photographs and video clips throughout the day, blending the two into compelling and memorable slideshows of the event.
- A full photo booth at the reception. We will set up a full backdrop and lighting kit to take reception portraits.
- Gear. It makes a difference. We are Canon camera professionals with duplicate gear and wet weather ability.
- No extra fee for the images on DVD. You always receive full resolution, non-watermarked jpeg files with a written release to print and post your images in perpetuity.
- A $100 album credit. Having a professionally designed and printed album that you will cherish for decades to come is essential. We will design that album and give you a credit to get the ball rolling.
- A complimentary $5 print credit given to all guests to allow them to order their own prints after the wedding.
- Your own custom web portal. A page will be designed & posted for you to highlight your wedding images and slideshow video (sample). Great to share with your guests.
- Timely. It is unconscionable to keep a couple waiting for their wedding images. We guarantee a 2-4 week turnaround.
- Friendly, approachable and flexible. Read verified client reviews about how our past couples feel about us.
