Darren was a dream to work with! He is immensely talented and the photos that he captured in both film and digital just have a special quality about them that is hard to replicate. We would gladly work with him again in a heartbeat.
Rance Paglin - Engagement Session
WHAT TO EXPECT
Photography
that feels like you
Your engagement session isn't just practice for the wedding - it's its own thing. We'll spend an hour or two somewhere that actually means something to you. I'll give you light direction without it feeling directed. These photos make a great way to bring unique character to your Wedding Website, Invites - and a beautiful addition to your shared home.
Everything is shot on film alongside digital. The film frames are the ones that tend to end up on walls.
