The World’s Only Light Painting Wedding Photographers
Because of the unique, custom nature of our wedding light painting photography, we must retain the copyright and all digital files. The best prints are on aluminum and our lab rocks at that.
That being said, all prints must come from our studio. No exceptions. There is a metal print included in each of our Wedding Collections. You may upgrade to a larger size once you see the finished light painting. We will certainly incorporate the image in your wedding album too.
Trust us, we want to create one of these for you at your wedding and maybe during your engagement session too. We will make every attempt to create a light painting at your wedding if the conditions are right. If we cannot create a light painting for you at your wedding, you may choose any of your wedding images for your metal print.
