We work in all conditions! Summer heat is no exception.
Our Wedding this past weekend was outside in 100+ degree weather and it was a scorcher!
Here is how to stay cool:
1. Start at Home I ditched the traditional dress shirt and opted for a short- sleeved lighter color polo type shirt, in addition a white t- shirt to help wick away the sweat (stay away from a black shirt)
2. A little baby powder will save you from looking like a wet towel!
3. Water Water everywhere! Water is awesome stay away from the sports drinks! We have a small fold-able seat in our gear that doubles as as cooler. Pack your seat cooler with at least a gallon of water and three ice packs and you will stay hydrated! Pack some extra for you assistant. Power Bar optional! Staying hydrated is important because at the wedding you will be working harder than anybody else and It would look bad if they had to rush you to the hospital.
4. Instant Shade This is my invention that I made from stuff that a professional photographer should already have on hand. A. Large Golf Umbrella B. Tripod C.Two orange pony clamps. We take 4 or 5 golf umbrellas in the Jeep to every wedding and you should too! You never know when it's going to rain and getting caught without umbrellas is a show stopper! One more note on umbrellas: get the kind with white Panels so that they will allow light to pass through It makes a beautiful diffused light!
Ok open umbrella , extend center post to full height, turn the head of your tripod straight up and clamp the umbrella and that's it. also you can anchor your Brella pod with your camera bag. This and lots of water will help you beat the summer heat.

Ok Brides!
Please refrain from using Tanning Beds 1 Week before your Bridal Portrait , Engagement Or Wedding.
I know this sounds Crazy but with Tans a little goes a long way! Fellas get your Hair cut one week before Images are to be made. This gives your hair time to look natural and Sharp. Keep these in Mind and we will have some awesome images to show for it!

Flash Booth 5 is an excellent addition to any Wedding reception or special event.
Our Photo Booths are state of the art, easy to use and a fun experience! Here is what one of our recent clients had to say:
"As a parent I tried to change Ashley's mind because I didn't want to add any additional cost to the wedding, but she really wanted the photobooth, FLASH BOOTH 5, and Denny. Now, I wouldn't change it for anything.....Denny could charge double the price and I would pay it, It was that good!! Everybody told me it was the most fun wedding they had ever been to. It was remarkable, the lines stayed full the entire night! The props were halarious from vintage to cool.... And best of all, all ages loved it - the old as well as the young. Denny was a blast! No words could really describe how much fun he was. He makes everybody feel comfortable and want to have fun! The guests also enjoyed writing a note to Ashley and Spencer in their guestbook along the photo strip they got to take home with them as a memory of the wedding. Thank you for making my daughter's reception such a success!" Beverly Flory, July, 2010
