Meet Michael Cope
Good wedding photography is unobtrusive, unscripted and unaffected. The photographer should mingle among the crowd to document from close proximity, yet remain uninvolved with the action to deter any sort of posed or staged images. One Flat rate. No packages. No games. Full day of documentary coverage - from you and the bridesmaids getting ready, to your departure for the honeymoon. The day will certainly include any group or special images you want, plus unique images Michael sees. He’ll capture visuals most guests won't even notice. Details most photographers miss. Avoiding cliché images along the way. Blending into the background.
“As you know weddings are complicated and stressful enough. I do not offer packages, hourly rates, paper proofs, higher rates to cover assistants and film/lab expenses, framing, or charge extra for online proofing. I try to keep this as simple as I can for everyone involved and have enjoyed great success over the last 22 years making images for couples, companies, newspapers and magazines."
