JM Photography – Calgary Wedding Photographers
Welcome to JM Photography’s Wedding Studio! This site is our hub for our Calgary Wedding Photographers that specialize in capturing real moments that touch the people that are connected to them. We offer Calgary Brides the very best in Wedding Photography by taking the greatest care in telling your unique love story.
With so much planning to do the task you have before you is not an easy one, and selecting an artist to tell your wedding story is such an important decision. The images captured on your special day will be apart of your family for the rest of your life. For this very reason we specialize in creating family heirlooms that last generations and this responsibility, is one that we take very seriously.
WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT?
In everything we do we strive to meet and exceed your expectations, while telling your beautiful story in the most compelling way possible. What could be more important than giving your family beautiful images that will provide enjoyment for years, and hopefully, generations to come? That is how serious we are about our job and for one of the most important days of your life you shouldn’t settle for anything less.
What should you be considering when choosing an artist to tell your story?
PERSONALITY
The person you book for your wedding will be spending a full day, or perhaps in some cases days with you. For this reason it is so important to pick someone who you feel you are compatible with. Compatibility is directly correlated to your comfort level, which is essential to creating a natural connection between the camera and you.
Each vendor you choose and the experience they provide set’s the tone for your entire wedding, which can ultimately impact your experience on your special day and into the future. In many cases the relationship you have with your wedding photographer can last a year or more, so ensuring their personality matches your’s only serves to be beneficial in the long run.
PRICING
While setting a budget is always important when selecting any type of service provider, it should not be the key factor in your decision. Often when making a dollar based decision key important aspects can be over looked like print quality, experience and artistic vision. These wouldn’t be as critical if your wedding was something you could return, however you only get one chance to do this right. In our experience very few brides have nothing they would change from their wedding day, and while the memory of your food, decor and guest’s will fade. These photos will be a part of your life for a long time, so it makes sense to pick someone who is going to capture the right images for you. Our recommendation is to base your decision on the quality of their work and the experience they provide.
YOUR WEDDING ALBUM AND PRINT PRODUCTS
Each of our wedding collections comes with one of our beautiful wedding albums, each album offering their own unique qualities. All of our collections also come with an Engagement Session and many of our couples use their engagement album as their guest book so every time they look through it they can enjoy the kind words and well wishes of their guests. Because each wedding collection comes with an album you are guaranteed to bring home a timeless keepsake after your wedding.
Our studio has spent an incredible amount of time, money and resources to ensure that our print products and wedding albums are the very best. With so many options out there it is easy to purchase a low quality album that doesn’t reflect the investment you made on your wedding. Our studio has a network of the very best print labs to ensure our canvasses, acrylic prints, wall mounted prints, folio boxes, and wedding albums rise above industry standards. Our connections with our print lab partners also allow us to provide you with specialized print collections that help you save when purchasing additional prints for your home.
COVERAGE
While typical coverage requirements for most weddings should be about 7 to 10 hours, make sure you investigate what your hourly or location based coverage covers. Also ensure you know what is charged to extend the provided wedding day coverage should it be needed come wedding day. There may be special or unique situations that call for additional hours, or alternatively, situations where reduced coverage is required. Always ensure that anyone you choose to work with understands the scope and length of your event well before the day of. A professional wedding photographer will have a series of meetings that they always conduct with their brides prior to the wedding day to ensure all aspects of your wedding are covered.
ADDITIONAL PHOTOGRAPHERS
While there are varying opinions on the ideal number of photographers for one event, we feel that two is often the best. This allows one photographer to take the lead on the day while the other can provide the accompanying photos. In our experience we find that having two photographers at every event allows us to provide the richest photographic experience and diversity in your imagery.
