Portrait-Product-Wedding Photography by Fort Worth Photographer Igor
Wedding photographers come in all shapes and forms, but the ultimate factor in finding your ideal wedding photographer is in the wedding gallery of your photographer and his/ her photographic style. Through the portfolio photos you must decide if that particular photographer can produce the type of images that will capture the emotions and rich memories of the very special event that a wedding is. A professional wedding photographer must be able to take consistent photographs of a certain standard. You have to try to get a sense of the photographer’s style and the value of the services and products that he offers. You also need to be able to get along with the photographer. Once you have decided on a wedding photographer whose work appeals to you, then discuss wedding packages, for
m of payment, quantity of photos, etc.

Igor Photography combines a blend of wedding photojournalism with a little bit of traditional wedding portraiture. Most of my photography will be of photo journalistic style, capturing the moments and events of the day. About an hour will be dedicated for the more formal bridal photography and bridal party, family and friends group portraits. The group and couple shots are very important, as a wedding is often one of the few occasions the whole family is gathered together.
Wedding photojournalism takes a very different approach than traditional wedding photography. The photo journalistic wedding approach documents the event as it transpires through the day instead of staging the moments. The photographer allows the scene to unfold naturally and capture all of the surprises and spontaneity that will occur. The photo journalistic photographer needs great skill in observation and concentration to predict the perfect time of capture of special moments. The skill of observation is key as well as an ability to concentrate on the events during a long day of shooting. An experience wedding photographer will find him/ herself at the right places at just the right times.
Usually wedding photographers offer engagement portrait photography, this is more than just a portrait of the couple, it’s a great way to get to know the photographer and to get used to being photographed. The pictures from the engagement portrait session can be used to determine the bride or grooms "best side". The engagement photography session helps the couple to be more relaxed in front of the camera and the photographer will know exactly how to photograph the couple to their best advantage. The engagement portrait session is included in some of the wedding packages that I offer.

The pictures will be in JPEG format (or/ and in RAW or any other format if requested).
Yes, I will edit color, contrast and I will enhance selected images at no extra charge in all the wedding packages. You will have the option to have spots and blemishes retouched out. Laughter lines and wrinkles can be toned down but I it's important that the person still looks like you. Retouching as removal of tattoos, birth marks and thickening or thinning will not be performed, unless requested!
Do you prefer color or black & white, or maybe both? Igor Photography offers you photos in color, B&W and different color tones like sepia toning. I can provide you with any sort of photographic manipulation that you might enjoy.
Yes, Igor Photography offer very competitive prices on professional lab corrected prints on high quality paper, metal or canvas. It's your choice. Some of the wedding packages already include prints.
Yes, you will own the printing copyright of all the digital negatives, I will give you the high resolution photos in a photo CD/DVD with a copyright release. I usually reserve the rights to use some of the photos for my website or marketing material if you approve.
Usually about 6-10 hrs, starting about one hour before the ceremony to when the reception winds down. It's really up to you. You can have the photographer meet you where you are getting dressed, and keep taking photos until you leave the reception. Or you may just want an hour of photography during the reception, with a few formal photographs of the ceremony. The price difference between short and full coverage is usually pretty small. My typical coverage starts one to three hours before the ceremony and ends after the bouquet, garter and cake.
We will plan the wedding photography well before the actual wedding day and discuss what kind of pictures you want, but I highly recommend you make a photo shoot list to give me in advance. This will make things easier for everyone. While I can’t guarantee every shot, the more information that I have, the better. It's often very important for certain group and couple photos to be taken. These photos often involve you, the bride and the groom, and because of this, you cannot be the one gathering relatives for the photos. I strongly recommend you choose a relative or friend who knows everyone else by name and sight, to be responsible in assisting me for gathering all the relatives for each photo. This will help tremendously and save time for everyone. It lessens the strain on the bride and the groom and It makes it much easier for me to deliver the pictures you desire.
There is no limit of how many photos you receive, usually you will get about 200-800 images, depending of how long the event is and if a second photographer has been chosen.
The selected and edited photos from your wedding will be available for preview in 5-7 business days. You will receive the DVDs with all the digital negatives in 1-2 weeks. Wedding albums usually take longer.
You can order a wedding package with albums/books or without, it's completely up to you. It's usually better to get a package that includes an album or book that the photographer will assemble for you, because most of us never get around to putting our photos in albums if we have to do it ourselves. Consider ordering parents' albums and coffee table books too. IGOR Photography offer various albums and books at very competitive prices.
After looking at all the pictures, the bride and groom usually picks a selection of their favorite pictures, and then the photographer will assemble the album for you. You can tell the photographer how you want the sequence of the pictures in the album, but it's usually best to trust the photographer with the assemble and layout of the album.
It depends on the size of the event and the extent of coverage that you want. For an extra fee you can have a two-photographer coverage, where both photographers are taking photos to increase the coverage of the wedding and reduce the risk of missing important moments. One can concentrate on the formal photos and details and the other on wedding photo journalism. Most brides don't want to be swamped with thousands of pictures from their wedding day. One professional wedding photographer can usually provide you with more than enough coverage for a small to medium size wedding.
Yes it is. If the photographer is trying to work efficiently through a series of formal photos, a snap-shooter will usually slow the process and cause problems when there are several cameras aimed at a formal group, the subjects will be looking at different cameras. The diverted attention will spoil the professional's photo. If the photographer is using a light sensing trigger device on a flash, the other flashes will trigger this flash and ruin the photos. There are several reasons why a professional might ask the guests to avoid taking pictures during the formal session. It's usually not a problem to allow the guest to take their pictures when the formal photos have been taken. Guests should show respect for the bridal party and photographer and put down their cameras during the formal photos.
I can include a very professional and top notch videographer for your wedding in your package, it will save you money and time.
There is no extra charge for travel within the Dallas/ Fort Worth metro area.
Your Wedding day Photography is a important Investment that will last a lifetime! Digital wedding photography prices vary widely in Texas and the US, in the range from $300 to $15,000, or even more for a day of wedding coverage! Photographs (and maybe video) will be your only permanent record of your special day. You want the best wedding photographer you can afford, so be prepared to make an investment in your wedding photography. Expect better and well established wedding photographers to charge the higher rates. That's because you are usually getting better service and a better product from the experienced professional.
If you are looking for a bargain and only shop around for prices, you are following a recipe for poor photography and disappointment. Research indicates that good wedding photography runs between ten and twenty percent of the total wedding budget. Customers that highly value photography and are on a tight budget will often spend about 30% of their wedding budget on their photography. Rather than focus to much on the price, consider the value and the preservation of the beautiful memories.
