Love So. Fla. brides but...

This summary is not available. Please click here to view the post.

The little fine print just became bigger

Before the year ends I want to give a quick explanation of what you are paying for when hiring me as a photographer.
Yesterday, I had a consultation over the phone and I was able to go over the details of what and why I charge what I charge.
I try to offer packages that I would like to get as a customer. Simple like that. I don't like surprises, hidden fees, after charges, over-priced products...

Personal copyrights, complimentary CD and affordable prints are some of the add-ons I know make you happy so... why not???

Anyway, this is a basic list of things to have in consideration when looking @ your quote:

- Pre-session research and setup of looks, theme, poses, etc. I just don't show up with my camera. I do my homework :)
- Traveling time when on-location session or event
- Time of shooting (from 1 1/2 to 8 hours)
- Downloading all the captures to my computer
- Edition time: over 4 hours, for sure. I take advantage of the latest available editing tools and I keep on re-educating myself about techniques and new post-production trends
- Uploading your final images to your private gallery (from 30 min. to 3 hours)
- Over $8,000.00 in professional equipment (cameras, lenses, editing programs, lighting, etc.).
- Printing feature: I work exclusively with a very reputable photo lab so you can be confident that when you buy prints from your private gallery they are up to my standards
- Burning CD and mailing :)

After reading all of the above and looking @ my work I hope you see the difference between your always-handy camera, the chain studio at the mall, the local high-end photographer and ME.

Looking forward to portrait you and your loved ones during 2010.

Rosie :)

What life is all about...

I had the opportunity to photo shoot Cary's baby shower and after re-viewing all the images I realized WHY I love event photography THAT much; it's all about friends and family, it's all about relationships :)

What am I up to?

"Rosie did our engagement/family photos and we had such a great time at our shoot. Jeff's sons were hamming it up and enjoyed every minute. When the photos came in, we OOOHED and AHHHED with happiness !! She captured all the emotions we displayed and our beach setting added the perfect touch. We look forward to having Rosie participate in documenting our upcoming wedding. She's terrific !!!!!" - Amy W from Delray Beach, FL

I've been editing a LOT... my own sessions and 3 fellow photographers ones.

What else? Planning ahead for next year weddings, doing a lot of networking...

Also, I created a group in FB called So. Fla. Vendors United and I'm glad I did. Broward/WPB counties vendors we needed something like that. Check us out!

Wedding photography - 1st consultation's details

I have to confess... took me a while to find my very personal approach to wedding photography consultation, til' I realized showing who I am and exposing the passion I have for this art were the  tools I really needed to create a relationship with my potential clients.

The most important reason behind meeting with my brides and grooms in person is to see IF we click, because... at the end of the day it's going to be a matter of trusting me with, com'on... your wedding memories!

I have the LUXURY to work on my own terms; I make the rules and I break them all when I have to :) that's fun LOL

I started offering packages just to make it easier on couples but nothing have been written on stone.
You want more options? CD, prints, albums, canvas, you name it and I'll make it happens without the pressure of 'gotta pick a package'.

I learned that in life... after all the pitches, all the negotiations and all the necessary signed contracts, my word is the one you can count on. Why? Cause' I care.
Let's meet...
Rosie :)
