McWedding packages include
– Personalized menu for up to a 100 guests
– McDonalds themed decorations
– and a special apple pie wedding cake
Prices starting at $1,280
Every bride should have their dream wedding, after all they’ve been planning this day their whole life. My approach with a wedding is only to help my brides dreams come true, as a result I spend a lot of time listening and helping them plan. Many times I find that I end up being the only person involved that wants whatever they want and I try and help them achieve it. Lately it seems like every one of my brides has someone else trying to take control over their wedding. Brides struggle not to hurt anyone’s feeling but there always comes a point where they simply have to say something. I have a hard time understanding what so hard about simply just being happy for a couple and wanting them to be happy.

I love weddings that mixing traditional and non traditional ideas. The black bow-tie garter is sexy and renewable.
On the first anniversary it’s tradition to give paper. Most people give stationary but I’ve always thought it would be cute to frame your vows and speeches. Many times after the ceremony these tiny pieces of paper containing all the promises, hopes and dreams are tossed.. When they should be framed. Why not save them and give them as a first anniversary gift.

These are a couple shots from yesterdays shoot with Modern Design Inc. If your looking to update your advertising or build a new catalog there is no time like the present to make new changes. Get professional photographs now.
I’ve been working on a video to help people to hire event photographers. Here is a copy of the script I’ve created.
There used to be a world before Photoshop. Photoshop didn’t always exist and photographers had to be able to get the shot in camera.
In order to look your best on your wedding day, make sure you practice posing. For ideas on posing watch celebrities posse on the red carpet. They’ll always put their weight on their back leg, arms slightly away from the body and look directly in to the camera. The number one thing I catch people doing is sticking their chin up/out in photos. The second thing I find is that grooms are generally not comfortable in front of the camera and they over compensate by being goofy. If you think your going to need help posing schedule and engagement session so that I can have time to coach you before your big day.
Another thing that can really make or break you wedding photos is the makeup and hair. Sometimes I find that hair and makeup looks great to the eye but not to the camera. When you go in to test your hair and makeup make sure and take a picture to see how it photographs. One of the advantages to living in LA is that you have access to make up artist that do make up for magazines. Make sure to hire a makeup artist that has experience doing makeup for photography. Try and get someone like this to do your makeup. Additionally you should appoint a friend to hold on to your lip gloss and pressed powder for touch ups. Ask them to keep an eye one your hair, makeup, and wardrobe. Sometimes during weddings you’ll get so wrapped up in other things that you don’t have time to worry about your appearance.
