Utah Wedding Photographer Stephanie Lorraine Photography

Being a small business owner, a wedding photographer or someone that offers a service, knowing your customer is happy is the BEST feeling in the world. As a consumer myself, I never realized the importance of thanking someone. Especially in an age where it can be done so easily, why not help someone with their business? Maybe it’s assumed that we know, but I’m here to tell you we don’t. Most of the time were wandering around aimlessly, silently wondering whether or not our clients are happy. Don’t be that client! If you’re wondering, does it really matter? Yes! It helps our confidence and could potentially help us reach new … Continue reading 3 Ways to Thank Your Wedding Photographer →

Stolen Wedding Photo Album Returned after 17 Years

Photography

An album of wedding photographs has been returned after going missing for 17 years. The images commemorating Nigel and Gillian Stewart’s marriage had been in their caravan which was stolen.

Wedding Engagement Pictures

Photography

Engagement pictures, though not a vital part of the wedding, are an important part of a memorable wedding. Many people choose to get engagement pictures for several reasons- here are a few: Engagement Announcements– This can be either an ad in a newspaper, an announcement sent to friends and family, or an invitation to an engagement party.

Bridal Portraits

Photography

For those of you who are new to the wedding mumbo-jumbo, a bridal portrait session is done with only the bride (all dressed up). Usually these pictures are taken at least a month before the wedding, so that they can be displayed at the wedding. However, some brides choose to do theirs after the wedding, or even on the wedding day. One of the best things about the bridal portrait is that it is a great way to make sure what you want will really look good. Since you are completely made-up for your picture including dress, veil, jewelry, bouquet, etc., you will be able to see exactly what you … Continue reading Bridal Portraits →
