Joshua is both a still photographer and filmmaker. His capable of shooting both stills and video at your wedding.

Choosing a photographer to document your wedding day story can be a stressful process. Joshua tries to keep his pricing both flexible and clear. Pick out a package that works for you, or piece together your own. If you bundle certain items together you can save some money.

Wedding Day Photography
Joshua will be your primary photographer. 8 hour coverage is just that, you pick
a start and stop time. Full day coverage is best if you want more of the entire
“story” starting that morning and ending when you drive away. 4 hour coverage
is available on all days except Saturday.

Second Photographer
Although he is totally comfortable shooting on his own, Joshua generally shoots
about 75% of his weddings with a second photographer. They are able to
photograph the groom getting ready while Joshua stays with the bride, they can
take still photos while he shoots video or vice versa, or they can photograph the
ceremony while he focuses on the guests, etc. There are simply opportunities
for photographs that can only be accomplished with 2 photographers.
Generally, second photographers are chosen 90 days before the wedding.

Portrait Sessions
Many couples choose to do an engagement or bridal portrait a few months
before the wedding. One hour is generally enough if it’s one location, two is
better with multiple locations. Video portraits are a new option for ‘09. While
shooting traditional posed photos, Joshua can record video with the same
camera. The video and photos can then be put into a DVD, podcast, or website.

Albums by Leather Craftsmen
Generally you choose around 100 of your favorite images and Joshua works
with Leather Craftmen on the design and binding. They have a lot of options, but
most of them fall within the price range mentioned above.


Digital Options
There are more options than listed here, but these are some of the more
popular ones. A photo booth can be set up with a camera and basic lighting
setup that can be triggered by the guests themselves. Wedding slideshows are
displayed on a TV or projector during the reception showing images from earlier
that day. Podcasts and websites are popular ways for couples to send out thank
you notes and keep in touch with guests through their own blog.,,,
