My advice to any bride is to get the BEST 'original' photos as possible (including the most details) as you can always add photo effects later.
We provide the best-quality originals AND can provide an additional subset of 'stylized' photos AND give our brides complete artistic release to allow them to edit and manipulate their images however they want.
I cringe as I read many inexperienced photographers' blog about how they arrive at their 'style'. Too often it's a long and complicated process of uneducated decisions that are trying to make-up for improper camera settings and capturing techniques.
I have always said that fads come and go, so in the long run, it's always better to lean towards the proven classics to insure long-term happiness and no regrets.
The number of photo filters available are endless. I am amused by the variation of non-descript names they are given such as: Clarendon, Gingham, Juno, Lark, Mayfair, Sierra, Valencia, Walden, etc.
I have included in this post a handful of photo effects showing the before and after's. I have named these descriptive terms rather than fancy (but meaningless) names.
