It’s a known fact the wedding industry has been changing for a few years. We have our own camera manufacturers to thank for that. It was a beautiful love affair that ended in the making of consumer end cameras that could make pretty pictures with little or no effort.

snapshots

and born from that is what I call the 500 better or better known in our industry Uncle Tom’s or Aunt Lydia’s.

It’s family or friends that got a wonderful consumer end camera for a holiday, snapped some nice snapshots and decides to enter the world of Professional Photography.

I’ve not joined the band wagon of attack on this phase of our industry but have instead lent a helping hand to new photographers to better their skills, because I know as well as most Pro’s know. that camera without knowledge will become a lethal weapon in a dark chapel or reception hall, a moving bridal party or a white balance that may need to be adjusted.

Lisa Nikole decided to help…

and what Lisa Nikole has found out is… So many couples are happy and content with family or friends shooting their most important event. They save money, they get decent images, why not?

I’ve got pages of why not on my list, but again… Sometimes you have to know when to leave the game, or change the game.

We are always thinking of our couples and we know what is important to them, after talking to many of our couples and listening to people on Facebook or Twitter what couples care about most now are those ever so important portraits of themselves.. the bride and groom. THAT is what matters most to them, so that is what we are going to give them.

Lisa Nikole knows that one thing a new photographer can’t do is pose, a new photographer has no clue how to balance lighting and a new photographer does not have thousands of dollars of equipment that can turn their snapshot into an amazing 20×24 canvas above your fireplace.

What Lisa Nikole knows is she can!

Here is what Lisa Nikole is going to do… Go ahead and let your family and friends shoot your wedding and reception.

Let Lisa Nikole shoot your portraits. You’ll save money and still get what you want. So keep looking at this space, we’ve got some information coming up that will show you exactly what we mean… till then.. enjoy a few images from our past weddings!
