Introduction

**If you're interested in booking with us, we'd prefer you submit the contact form on our website, thanks! It will be a much faster process and you’ll even get a discount! Mark Thumbtack as the response to “How did you hear about us?” and we will give you a $100 off!** We are high-end luxury photographers and a husband and wife TEAM! Please only inquire if you are serious about us and we are within your budget. Not only do we provide incredible images, we will also help you plan the wedding day timeline and offer a multitude of resources to ensure your day is a HUGE SUCCESS. If that's what you are looking for - LET'S DO THIS! 🎉 About Us After waiting almost 6 months for our wedding photos, Kristin and I felt like photographers can do better! We decided that we were willing to "be the change we wanted to see" and started Cadence of Grace. For longer than we can remember we have been a part of making love stories possible! After 15+ years of being involved in weddings in other capacities (i.e planner, officiant, decorator and pre-marital counselor), we found a passion for being behind the camera and delivering beautiful images that capture moments that would otherwise be lost to time! Our Mission It is our aim to serve our clients to the best of our ability! We feel like your photographer should be someone you would WANT at your wedding. We want you to experience the BEST day possible and make you look incredible doing it! Our Philosophy The best wedding photography is candid! It's the moments when you are being yourself and forget all about the camera. It's about those in-between moments in your natural cadence. Not planned. Not posed. Just real moments captured with grace in the most beautiful way possible. Our clients are at the center of everything we do. We listen, learn, and deliver the best product possible.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

After 15+ years of being involved in weddings in other capacities (i.e planner, officiant, decorator and pre-marital counselor), we found a passion for being behind the camera and delivering beautiful images that capture moments that would otherwise be lost to time! Since picking up a camera for the first time many years ago, we have spent countless hours taking classes to refine our craft. We’ve studied from a place of photographic composition, graphic arts design, social media marketing and even large scale broadcast experience. Even as of recently - within the last month - we have invested 100’s of dollars taking classes to refine and develop our editing process in Lightroom to deliver the best possible images to our clients.

How did you get started doing this type of work?

After waiting almost 6 months for our wedding photos, Kristin and I felt like photographers can do better! We decided that we were willing to "be the change we wanted to see" and started Cadence of Grace. For longer than we can remember we have been a part of making love stories possible and it has proven to be a huge part of what gives us purpose!

What types of customers have you worked with?

Over our 15+ years working with people we have experience working with all types from every walk of life!

Describe a recent project you are fond of. How long did it take?

Our 10 hour wedding coverage with Rob and Angela was an incredible experience. We were able to capture a significant amount of photojournalistic images which the couple really appreciated! They invited us into every aspect of their day and we made sure they didn’t regret it! From the intimate moments of getting ready to the unique spectacle of their french bulldog driving into the reception on a power wheels Range Rover! He almost knocked over the cake and we were able to catch the table JUST IN TIME! Needless to say, it is a wedding we won’t soon forget!

What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

I would suggest that customers looking to hire a photographer they ENJOY being around! At every wedding we’ve been apart of, we leave as a family friend. You should find a photographer that is more interested in ensuring you have a wonderful wedding day than ensuring they get a pay day.

What questions should customers think through before talking to professionals about their project?

Ask questions like: 🗓 AVAILABILITY Is our wedding date available? Will you be the one shooting my wedding? Do you have any other weddings the weekend of our wedding? Will you have any assistants with you on our wedding day? ✅ BACKGROUND CHECKS Have you shot weddings similar in style and scope to our wedding? Can we see highlights from your recent weddings? Have you ever shot at our venue - if not - do you intend to scout it out in advance? 🫶🏽STYLISTIC How would you describe your photography style? What would you compare your work to? How do you describe your working style - do you prefer blend in and capture candid moments or do you like to be more visible and take charge to capture choreographed images? Do you shoot digitally, with film or both? What equipment do you use? Is it a full frame camera? 🤖 LOGISTICAL When will we receive the contract? How much is retainer and when is it due? How do you accept payments? What is refund or cancellation policy? Do you carry back up equipment? What is the backup plan if you can not shoot my wedding for an unexpected reason? How will you and your team be dressed? Can we request specific shots? 📦 PRICING AND PACKAGES What is included in your standard package? Is our engagement shoot included in our package? What about rehearsal dinner? What add-ons do your more expensive packages include? Can I customize a package to fit my needs? How many hours are included in each package and how much for extra hours? How many photos can I expect per hour?
