The Photos by Mkay Experience

How the Booking Process Works for Photos by Mkay Wedding Photography

In summary, I want you to know that I am fully committed to supporting you throughout this incredible journey. With countless wedding photographers to choose from, I understand that selecting the right one can be overwhelming. Rest assured, I dedicate myself completely to each wedding I photograph, putting forth my utmost effort to capture every moment with care and precision.

My goal is to create stunning images that not only reflect the beauty of your special day but also capture the essence of your unique personality. I recognize that every wedding is a distinct celebration, and I strive to honor that uniqueness by ensuring that your photos are as special and individual as the day itself. Your wedding day is a once-in-a-lifetime event, and your photographs should be a true reflection of its uniqueness and your personal style.

    The difference between a Professional Edit & Traditional Edit is:

    Professional Edits - Bride and Groom photos and any Bridal Photos and/or extra special moments throughout the day.

    They include:

    - Color Correction

    - Cropping/Straightening

    - De-noising & Sharpening

    - Full Body Retouching

    - Full Face Retouching

    - Object Removal (Depending on Photo)

    - Adding Light Leaks & Different Skys (Depending on Photo)

    Traditional Edits include:

    - Color Correction

    - Cropping/Straightening

    - De-noising & Sharpening

    - Light Facial Retouching (Depending on Photo)

    I do not offer hair or clothing retouching. If needed, that would be an additional charge and be sent out to a professional retoucher. I do however try my best to remove flyaway hairs in professional edits.

    Every photo that I give you is edited, however to different degrees. I will spend more time on a bride and groom portrait, than I would of someone randomly dancing at your wedding.

    Please note that I do not allow selection of the photos that I edit. It’s my belief that I have to love the photo for me to give it my 100%. 

    You can however purchase all the RAW, unedited, untouched photos for an additional $500. 

    I try to be as transparent as possible with my clients, if you have any questions you can email me at anytime!

  • Yes! I absolutely love to travel. Custom packages are available for all travel/destination weddings.
