The Platinum Package is a premium offering designed for the couple who not only wants extensive photo coverage of their special day from start to finish but also wants video coverage as well.
The package utilizes a photographer as well as a second photographer / video operator to provide a much wider range of coverage possibilities. There is no time limit for coverage of your special day. You tell us when to arrive and we will stay until the end.
Images of the ceremony, greeting line, reception entrance and the main reception events like the toasts, cake cutting, garter and bouquet toss will all be captured along with the couple as they get ready for the event, the general decor at the wedding and reception locations and a larger variety of images of the guests. A full series of formal shots of the couple and their wedding party will also be captured.
A video of the entire ceremony will be created as well as video shot throughout the day will be used to create a music video of the highlights. You can even pick the song.
When not shooting video, the second operator will be shooting additional still images which will increase the variety of images you have from the event and both photographers will be working together to make sure everything gets covered and then some.
Both photographers will be experienced wedding photographers. We would not place such important responsibilities in the hands of an amateur. What you are getting is two skilled photographers working together to make your special day one you will not forget.
All images from the day will be organized and posted to an online gallery for you to review. Click here to view an example of an online proofing gallery. This is a real example of what you can expect from a Platinum wedding. This wedding was covered by Lori Poteet and myself. The images in this gallery are a combination of both of our photos. Lori shot still images full time and I shuffled between shooting video and still images.
In addition to your online gallery, a webpage dedicated to your event will be created and posted on this site under the wedding events category as shown on the left. Click here to view an example. This webpage will allow you to access all the items created from your wedding in a single place. Access to your proofs, a slideshow of favorites, videos, and your engagement pictures if you book and engagement session will all be included here and you can share the link to this page with anyone you like so they can also view everything. All items can be password protected if you would like to limit access.
Regarding the engagement session, all Platinum wedding bookings include the engagement session free of charge.
The webpage referenced above also contains an example of a music video that was created from the event.
After your online gallery is available you can select up to 225 images that will then be edited. Editing will cover things like cropping, basic touchups and general color corrections including conversion to black and white or sepia if requested. Elaborate image editing is also available but will incur additional costs. Since there is such a wide range of things this can cover, it will be handled on a case-by-case basis.
These final high resolution images will be burnt to a disk for you and you will also receive a release that will allow you to print and use them as you wish. You will also receive a set of 4×6 prints of all final images selected.
Additionally, you will receive two 40 page casebound books using any or all of the final images you selected. The books will have a printed cover using one of your images. You are invited to help in the design of the book or I will do it for you, whatever you want. Please note, this is two copies of the same book, not two different books.
The videos that are created will also be made into a DVD and you will receive three copies of the DVD.
You will also have a $200 credit that can be applied to purchase professional prints or additional services like additional edited images, additional image CD’s or DVD’s etc. The credit can be applied to everything except additional photo books.
A price list for the professional prints is included in the downloadable information document.
The Platinum Package is $1,950.
