Local photographers and videographers tell us about their businesses Camera READY Choosing your photographer or videographer is one of the most important decisions you will make when planning your wedding. The first thing you should do is decide on a style that you like. There are plenty of companies out there, and each one has a different style; you’ll need to narrow it down to what you like and don’t like. Some prefer to take relaxed, documentary-style pictures that are captured in an unobstructive manner with limited group and posed shots. While others have a more traditional style with more posed snaps. Work out what feels right for you and fits the vibe of your day. To help give you some inspiration, we’ve asked photographers and videographers about their companies… www.elenaluciaphotography.co.uk www.elenaluciaphotography.co.uk ELENA LUCIA PHOTOGRAPHY 07931 358 181 | www.elenaluciaphotography.co.uk Elena Lucia is a documentary-style photographer based in Maidstone, Kent, with more than eight years of photography experience. Elena tells us about her business: “My goal is to capture all emotions present at your wedding – the laughs while you get ready, the excitement as you wait to see each other down the aisle, the happy tears of the guests, and more importantly, the love in the couple’s eyes. I find that the light-hearted atmosphere I bring to all weddings allows for couples and their friends and family to be at ease as I go about photographing your day, ensuring I am able to get relaxed and natural images. I make sure, as a couple, your wants and visions are captured so that you can look back at the timeless photographs and see all the special moments of the day. I also provide sneak peaks of your wedding within 48 hours, so you don’t have to wait long to get a glimpse of your magical wedding. “The reviews I receive from my clients show how pleased they are with my work and how they continue to look back upon their photographs. One of my clients left a review that said: ‘We couldn’t imagine our day without her and everyone who she met said what a wonderful person she is. To us, she made our wedding just that little bit more perfect’. “I have a number of packages to fit each couple, while also offering the option to fully customise your day and what you want from my time at your wedding. This can range from half-day coverage to an extra photographer or wanting ‘behind the scenes’ video clips.” PHOTOGRAPHY AND VIDEOGRAPHY 53
