Dear Bride To Be,

      Thank you for checking out this website.  And congratulations on your engagement!  How exciting and romantic!  Now, let's guarantee you have a fantastic and romantic wedding day - full of love, emotion and beauty!  (Believe it or not, that does take some planning!)

 This web page is not for every Bride To Be...is it for you?

      If you are looking to have an "average" wedding - one that is stressful and not very organized, one where the guests hardly get to see you, one where you are so exhausted that you can hardly smile.  One where it seems like you're constantly putting out "fires" and solving emergencies.  One where "so many things just went wrong"...

     
Then this web page is not for you.  I'm sorry for wasting your time.  Please read no further.

But...

      ...if you're a bride who wants her wedding to be PERFECT, and the most romantic, beautiful and emotional day of your life; if you want to enjoy every minute of your day;  if you want to be the most ravishingly beautiful bride your friends and relatives have ever seen;  if you want to spend wonderful, quality time with your guests;  if you want to remember with happy tears in your eyes all the love, emotion and joys of the day...

Then this is going to be the most exciting website you have ever gone to - Really!

      My name is Derek Johnson, and I LOVE weddings because I love capturing the emotion and romance of a wedding day. 

      If you're still reading, let me congratulate you.  This means you want to be the most beautiful bride anywhere.  You want your wedding to be a wonderfully emotional and romantic day.  You want to have everything go smoothly and perfectly,   You want to have a great time. You want to see all your guests, and have them also have a fun time.  Well, here's how to do it:

 Here's 7 Secrets To Having The Wedding Of Your Dreams!

 SECRET #1: How To Guarantee Your Wedding Lives Up To Your Dreams. 

      Believe it or not, the photographer you select to photograph your wedding can make or break your wedding day.  Yes, I kid you not, your wedding day - not just your photographs!  Why? Because he's THERE - with you and your family, in person - interacting with all your family and guests - and representing you every minute. 

   
   Now, HONESTLY, we're not just talking about photography here - we're talking about YOUR WEDDING - how YOU FEEL on your wedding day, and how smoothly and romantically everything goes.  You see, your photographer determines this, by the way he helps you plan your wedding, the way he treats you and your loved ones, and the way he conducts himself throughout the day.

 
Amazing Secret Revealed - What Other Wedding Photographers Don't Want You To Know!

      So here's the secret:  Meet the photographer - IN PERSON - before you hire anyone to photograph your wedding!  Most brides don't realize that many studios hire part time photographers to photograph their weddings for them - high school and college kids, friends, relatives, etc.  This means that you go to a studio, talk with a salesperson, look at their samples, and make a decision - without really knowing who will be photographing your wedding!

      And if it's not just the right person doing the photography, and interacting with all your family and guests, everything can be ruined! 

So, when you're talking with a potential studio, ask them the following questions:

      1.  Who did these photographs you are showing me?

     2.  Who, by name, will be photographing our wedding if we hire your studio?

     3.  We want to MEET this person, BEFORE we hire your studio.  

Then, when you meet this person, ask him or her the following questions:

      1.  How will you dress at my wedding?

     2.  How long will you be at my wedding?

     3.  Before you leave our wedding, who do you check with first to see if there's anything else we would like you to do?

     4.  Do you work from a checklist of photos?  (You NEVER want a photographer who needs a checklist doing your wedding photography! He'll spend all his time looking at the list, and miss all the wonderful, romantic and spontaneous moments of your wedding!)

      Then, decide if you REALLY LIKE HIM, as well as his work! Because he's going to be spending a lot of time with you and your family and friends, on your important day.

By the way, just so you know, here's my answers to those questions:

     I will be capturing all of the major images at your wedding.  I will be photographing your wedding personally. I will dress in a nice suit (NOT A TUX, AND NOT JUST SLACKS AND A SHIRT!  I don't want to take anything away from your groom and groomsmen and the fathers, and I also don't want to dress casually, and not represent you professionally.)

         I'll be at your wedding until you, your husband (how exciting - your "husband!"), your parents, and your husband's parents all say they have nothing else for me to do.  I NEVER will leave your wedding without checking with all of the above people!

      I use no checklist.  Instead, I learn the names and relationships of all the members of your wedding party, and both families!  I refer to them by name, and I know their relationship to you, so I can be constantly watching for those special, magical and spontaneous moments that will be so meaningful to you to have photographs of!

      Here's a really big "secret" that almost no brides think about when interviewing a potential photographer:  What's their guarantee?  What happens if you aren't happy with the photography, or the way you and your friends were treated, or if the photographer left your wedding before he was supposed to, etc.

      This is of the utmost importance!  The guarantee (make sure it's in writing!) tells you just how committed they are going to be in taking good care of you, and doing a great job.

And, just so you know, here's our IRON CLAD, 100% MONEY BACK GUARANTEE: 

You will be THRILLED (not just 'satisfied') with how we represented you and your family at your wedding, and also THRILLED with your photographs, or we will do whatever necessary to have you be THRILLED with them, or we will return ALL YOUR MONEY. Period.  No hard feelings either.  We want you to LOVE everything we do for you!

      You see, we understand that you can't do this over again. This is a "one-time-thing" and everything MUST be perfect!  You have our written guarantee that we'll take really good care of you!

SECRET #3:  An Important Warning:  Miss This Secret, And A Disaster Could Happen At Your Wedding!

      This seems so obvious, and yet brides miss this one all the time, and pay a BIG PRICE for it after their wedding!  Be sure the photographer has some happy brides and grooms, who have written him and told him how happy there were with both him, and his work! We're talking TESTIMONIALS here! 

      You will notice that throughout this webpage are photographs and testimonials from some of the brides and grooms whom we have been honored to work with on their wedding day.  Also notice that their FULL names, city and state are listed, so, if you really wanted to, you could look them up in the phone book, and call them. 

      One of the things that you really want to look for in your photographer, is someone who is an EMOTIONAL STORY TELLER!  An artistic photographer whose images combine to tell the EMOTIONAL STORY of your family, your friends, and your wedding day.  This is really important, if you are looking for photographs which will be PRICELESS to you for years and years to come!

      And here's why this is so important!  If an artist is an EMOTIONAL STORY TELLER, there's a really good chance that he will be compassionate about not ruining the romance, beauty and emotions of your day.  You see, only a true romantic can truly understand how important this day is to you, and how perfectly you want it to go.

      And a true romantic will be sensitive to NOT INTERFERING WITH THE EMOTIONAL ROMANTIC FLOW OF YOUR DAY!

 So, looking for a romantic, EMOTIONAL STORY TELLER, who will beautifully tell the story of your love for each other, and for your family and friends, will also result in someone who will respect you and your wishes, and conduct himself in only the most professional and friendly way, because he understands in the most intimate way, the importance of the "Story of Your Wedding Day."

 SECRET #5:  The Truth About Wedding Photographers Revealed.  What They Don't Want Me To Tell You!

      It is not my intention to say anything bad about any other photographers in the area. However, it is really important that I alert you, in this website to some of the problems that you otherwise would never know about.

Well, here's a "biggie." 

Most photographers will cram as many weddings into a day as they humanly can.  Many times, this means they must rush from your wedding, to get to another, and then rush from that one, to get to another.

      This type of photographer just isn't going to be able to capture the EMOTIONS, ROMANCE, LOVE, AND RELATIONSHIPS between you and your husband (doesn't that sound exciting?!  Your "husband!") and also between you and your family and friends.  He's just won't have the sensitivity and enthusiasm and love for what he does to be able to capture those feelings.  And he won't have the time or energy.

By the way, I ONLY photograph ONE wedding per day. 

   You get me for the ENTIRE DAY.  I understand how important this day is to you, and I am there for you!

      This also means that I'm rested and energetic. It also means I'm enthusiastic about what I will be doing for you.  As I mentioned earlier, I photograph weddings because I LOVE them, not because I have to do them.  And since I only photograph one wedding a day, I'm not tired or "burned out on your important day."

SECRET #6:  A Remarkable Secret To Truly Enjoying Your Wedding Day, And Having It Filled With Wonderful, Emotional Moments!

      This is so important!  Be sure the photographer you hire has a "team" approach to taking good care of you on your day.  This means that he isn't going to be trying to work alone to photograph your important day.

      You see, doing a really super, romantic, EMOTIONAL STORY of your day requires a huge amount of planning, care, and effort.  More effort than just one person can do.

      Let me explain. 

      I will arrive at your wedding with my Creative Director and Wedding Consultant, Kenya, who also is my wife and partner.  She has a HUGE responsibility during the day, and is the true secret to our success in wedding photography.

      She makes certain that you look fantastic, every minute of the day!   She's going to be helping you with your dress and flowers, fixing your veil before a photograph so it looks PERFECT, fixing your train so it is perfect for the photographs, etc.  She helps you in any way she can to assure that you have a wonderful day, as well as wonderful photographs.  

      We are a TEAM.  A team that works together, guarantees that you not only have a great time on your wedding day, but also assures you of having PERFECTLY EMOTIONAL photographs!

A HUGE POINT FOR BRIDES-TO-BE:

 The Magic Of "E.F.P" On Your Wedding Day!

      You see, I don't really look at it as "wedding photography," but rather as "Emotional Family Photography created on your wedding day!"  It's all the emotions, relationships and personalities of all your friends and relatives, captured in beautiful images for you and your family to cherish for the rest of your lives.  After all, isn't that what you really want?

      "E.F.P." is one of the major things that separates me from all the other wedding photographers in the area.  I want to capture the love, relationships, personalities, and emotions of all your family and friends for you to enjoy and view with happy tears in your eyes for years and years to come!

 Aren't The People and The Emotions Of Your Life What Matter The Most To You?

      Because it's the PEOPLE and the EMOTIONS of your life that are so valuable to you.  Yes, you'll also see the beautiful dresses and flowers.  Yes, you'll see the lovely ceremony, etc.  But more, much more than that.  You'll feel the emotions that you and your fiancée feel toward each other and toward your best friends and family members on this magical day.  Yes, FEEL them each time you view your photographs.  That's what I am driven to do for you!

      You see, you want photography that "speaks" to you with love, emotion, respect, and the glorious feelings you will be feeling on your wedding day.

      You want your photography to "tell the story" of your wedding day, AND your families and friends.

Most photographers, bless their hearts, just want to "record the event, and go home."

      I want you to cry when you see the photographs!  Cry tears of happiness, because in those photographs are all the people you and your husband love and care about - showing their real personalities and emotions like you never dreamed they would!

      Most photographers just want to get home before midnight, or hurry to the next wedding they are photographing.

 Don't Miss The "Emotional Moments" Of Your Day Because Your Photographer Didn't Have The Vision To See And Capture Them In A Sensitive, Romantic Way!

      Your day will be filled with beautiful "Emotional Moments" that you will never experience again in your life. Those "Moments" are what I am driven to capture for you.
 

      Here are some examples:

 NEW!

An Amazing And Wonderfully Emotional Way To Express Your Love For Your Dad On Your Wedding Day!

      As a father myself, I can assure you that one of the most emotional moments in a dad's life is when he "gives his little girl away" at the beginning of your ceremony.  Your dad will never forget it. 

      But now, there's something full of emotional magic that you can give your dad when he gives you away!  At that very powerful moment in his and your life, you hand him a surprise "Father's Pride" that he carries with him back to the pew, and as he reads your personal message to him, and looks at the emotional photograph of you in your wedding gown, he begins to cry with tears of joy and love!

      He will be so moved and touched!  You and he will never forget it! 

      Don't miss that moment!

The Magic Moment When The Love Of Your Life First Sees You!

      Or the incredible moment when your fiancé first sees you in your wedding gown - perfect in every way - with your lovely flowers, the beautiful veil and headpiece - everything which you selected specifically for him - as the tears swell up in his eyes, and he tells you how very much he loves and adores you.

      Don't miss that moment!

 A Magic Moment With Grandma

      Or, if you are blessed enough to still have a living grandmother, the lovely moment when she reaches up and puts her arms around you, and with tears in her eyes, tells you how beautiful you look and how much she loves you, and how proud she is of you.

      Don't miss that moment!

      I could go on and on.  Your entire day will be made up of brief, priceless moments like these.  Let's make sure first of all that your day is so beautifully organized and planned that these moments truly can happen, and then let's help you to be so stress free, but excited, that you can enjoy and remember these wonderful, magical moments for the rest of your life.

      How do we do that?

      I'll bet you think I'm going to say that you do this through the photography.  Right? Wrong!  The way we help these moments happen, and help you remember them, is to help you have a wonderful, romantic and emotional day!  A day where everything goes perfectly. 

      That's what Kenya and I will do for you. 

 Oh, if you ever talk with a photographer who says this to you, run away as fast as you can!

      If he says, "Your photographs are all you will have after the wedding is over.  Your flowers will be dead, your cake will be eaten, etc. - but you'll have your photographs! They are the most important thing about your wedding!" - then he's NOT the photographer for you! 

      Why not?  Because if he says that, he has a completely false impression of his importance, and will try to run your day and take charge!  Don't let that happen!  Because the photographs ARE NOT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING - the romance, emotions and relationships are the most important thing! 

SECRET #7:  How To Be Assured That You Will Be The Most Beautiful Bride Your Friends Or Relatives Have Ever Seen!

      You deserve to have a wedding day where you are the most beautiful bride any of your friends or relatives have ever seen.  That's the dream of every girl when she begins visualizing her wedding day.  And you deserve to have that!

      Let's see to it that is exactly what happens!  How?  Simple. Yes, you will select the perfect dress, headpiece, veil, flowers, shoes, etc.

      Yes, you will have your hair and make up done.  But it goes much deeper than that.

      You see, beauty is also in the way you FEEL on your wedding day.  The way your emotions show on your face, and the way you glow when you walk down the aisle and look in the eyes of the love of your life.

      Many of my brides will understand this when I say it:  When you hire us to photograph your wedding, you're really paying for Kenya and I to be there.  To take all the pressures and tensions out of the day for you.  You know that we are there, and that we truly care about you, and will help you with EVERYTHING so the day goes perfectly.  That's really what our brides are paying us for.  The photographs are free.  They're just an added "bonus!" 

      You see, if you, your husband (there's that great word again!), and your family and guests are all having a wonderful time, you will be more beautiful than you have even dreamed  you would be.  Because there will be no tension there.  And, by the way, your photographs will be WONDERFUL, too, because you looked so wonderful and were having such a great time.

      See how it all "fits" together to result in a wonderful day, and wonderful photographs?  You really can't separate them!
