Carden Photography – Portrait and Wedding Photographer in Tullahoma, Tennessee

This week I’m showing off two pics because they just go so well together.

“You look like you fell in love during your engagement session,” the bridesmaid told the bride. While it is certainly a statement about the photography, it is just as much an endorsement of my custom guestbook and an example of how this product helps set me apart as a wedding photographer.

Building a custom guestbook from the engagement session is apparently provided by very few photographers in this area.  Every bride I met last month at the Southern Middle Tennessee Bridal Fair was excited by them.

How big is this? My guestbooks and the process by which I create them is featured this month by Professional Photographer Magazine in the article, Custom Guestbooks Make an Indelible Impression. Thousands of photographers around the world will be reading about this part of my wedding coverage.

The brides who select me to capture their wedding will get the real thing. The brides who book me this month will receive a $250 discount on their custom guestbook.

Last week’s pic was one of my favorite wedding images from 2008. This week I present my wife’s favorite.

I’m off to Wisconsin again next weekend to shoot Mandie’s wedding. Here’s one from her bridal portrait session.

The 2008 Madison Bridal Show is over. I had a great time meeting all of the wonderful brides and grooms who came out.

Call soon to reserve your date and schedule a consultation to build your custom package.
Remember the bonus for booking in January is a complimentary custom guest book built from the engagement session that is included in all packages. Much more than just lines on a piece of paper, this will become a treasured heirloom over time that will remind you of much more than your wedding… it will remind you of the love that brought you together in the first place.

As a photojournalist, most of my images are focused on people, their experiences and their emotions. I have had the honor of shooting weddings some this year with Michael Mowbray. He has helped remind me to not overlook the big picture which may be even more dramatic in capturing the moment. Here’s an excellent example from the Assembly Chambers in the Wisconsin State Capitol.

So what happens when a bride walks past a firehouse?

Of course the guys welcome her to sit with them and show her their fire truck! Many thanks to the gentlemen at Madison Firehouse #1!
