what to expect - weddings by casi lea photography


YOUR LOVE STORY
Your wedding is a unique reflection of you. That’s why I love getting to know you personally — so I can tell your story beautifully. Sharing all your wedding dreams and details helps me create authentic, meaningful images that reflect the true you. Your unguarded moments. Your natural emotions. All the cherished images of your very special day.

My shooting style is quietly unobtrusive, and gently directive when needed. And my images naturally reveal the expressions of love and commitment that you both share. This is my passion. The heart of what I do. And I hope shines through in every image.

Your wedding day will be filled with extraordinary moments — intimate, surprising and joyous. Those fleeting moments, captured creatively, are the timeless visual heirlooms that will instantly bring you back to the essence of your wedding day.

BRINGING YOUR WEDDING MEMORIES TO LIFE
You have hundreds of wedding plans to make. Deciding who will bring your memories to life is one of your most important. When the flurry and excitement of your wedding day is over, it is beautifully captured images that help you revisit the romance, emotion and spirit of an event that passes so quickly.  So, how do you choose the best wedding photographer for you?

CHOOSE A PHOTOGRAPHER WHO VALUES YOUR DREAMS
I don’t think of you as just a shot list. Instead, I invest time getting to know you and your wedding dreams. That makes all the difference. You will be more comfortable in front of my lens, and your images will have the natural, more authentic feel of true keepsakes.

VIEW PORTFOLIO IMAGES FROM AN ENTIRE WEDDING
I will capture consistent, quality images throughout your wedding day. Details matter. And the subtle nuances of your day are important. I’m happy to share entire wedding galleries with you, so you can assure yourself that the quality you expect consistently shines through in every shot.

CHOOSE A SEASONED PROFESSIONAL
I’m experienced dealing with many different lighting environments and situations. I’m committed to professional and timely response to your needs before and after the ceremony. All hallmarks of a seasoned professional. And all assurances that every special moment of your wedding is flawlessly captured.

THE EASIEST PART OF YOUR WEDDING PLANS
Let’s get together — at your favorite coffee shop, on the phone, even SKYPE — I’m flexible. We’ll chat about your wedding day, confirm your date, and discuss all the fun details. I’ll show you examples of beautiful custom wedding albums and other items that can become your cherished wedding day heirlooms. Together, we’ll select the perfect package for your wedding.
Once we confirm the details, I’ll prepare your contract. After you return your signed contract and the retainer fee, I’m officially your wedding photographer!

SHOW YOUR LOVED ONES HOW IT ALL BEGAN
Show your loved ones how and where your love story began with your own engagement photo session.  Engagement sessions add so much to the story of who you are as a couple right now, and they’re an ideal way to become more comfortable in front of my lens before your wedding day.
Your engagement session can be as simple as a stroll through your favorite park, an intimate meal at your favorite café, or even a romantic return to where he proposed — anything you can imagine to share the imagery of your personal love story.
Formal or informal, images from your engagement session can be a beautiful addition to your wedding album, and also make a wonderful signing book. They help to craft the whole story, and can even be used for Save-the-Date cards, Invitations or Thank You cards.

A SMOOTH FLOW TO YOUR SPECIAL DAY
Memorable weddings don’t just happen. They take a bit of organization. To ensure a smooth flow of beautifully captured memories of your day, a timeline of wedding events will help guide your planning.

  • Getting Ready: The Bride & Groom — 1.5 to 2.0 hours
Plan to start earlier at the salon if you’re planning a “first look”.
  • The Wedding Ceremony — 15 minutes to 1.5 hours
The length of your ceremony may vary widely. Afterward, allow more time for formal portraits (if planned) to allow your guests to leave the church or venue.
  • Formal Group & Family Portraits — 30 minutes to 1.0 hour
Formal portrait timing can vary widely depending on group size and family/group combinations.
  • Wedding Party & The Newlywed Couple — 1.0 to 3.0 hours
Timing can depend largely on the venue, size of the bridal party and variety of poses.
  • Your Reception — 2.0 to 6.0 hours
Your first dance, cutting the cake, dancing guests, friends and family sharing your joy. 

Remember. Your wedding day is unique, and planning together ensures you don’t miss a minute of this special time in your lives.
