I originally planned on buying a large format printer in late August or September but now I’m buying an Epson Stylus Pro 9800 on July 5th! Whitney and I are both really excited that we’ll be able to do in house printing up to 44″ wide (mostly canvas and fine art papers). Local photographers/artists/interior designers: Please email me at Dylan@envoguephotography.ca if you’re interested in seeing what the discounted rates are. In addition to discounted rates for professionals, I’ll be offering unbranded (drop shipping) and studio sample discounts =).

The size I ordered is a 20×30 and in my opinion, it’s the best size to get – It’s not too big, not too small. I can’t wait until I get to start printing these beauties!

This summer we are also planning to try and have our fastest turnaround yet (1-2 weeks – the usual last year being 3-4 weeks), though this is not guaranteed but we will be trying our hardest to get your images back as soon as possible.

The more I think about this summer, the more excited I get! In addition to all the great weddings we’ll be at, I’ll be starting another company. It will be a fine art large format printing business. This means instead of outsourcing our photos to be printed on canvas, we will be doing it in-house. I still haven’t quite thought out when I will be starting it but it will be in September or October… But who knows it could be earlier!

Also, either tomorrow or Wednesday we receive our first ever canvas example!!! As soon as I receive it I’ll be taking some photos of it to show off on the blog. I can’t wait! It’s a photo from an engagement session from last year, that’s all I’m going to say so I don’t spoil the surprise.

We’ll be offering gallery canvas prints. The price will be around $250 for a 20×30 print. For more information on different sized prints, please contact us!

We’ll also be offering image-wrap photobooks in two different sizes, 8×8 and 10×10. The price for the 10×10 album will be $400 and the smaller 8×8 parent books will be $300. The photobooks will consist of 20 spreads (40 pages) and you can add pages for an additional price. Each book is custom designed by us and requires many hours to complete. Our printer in Toronto uses quality acid-free paper imported from the Italian paper manufacturer Fedrigoni, they ensure each page in your photo book lasts a lifetime. The award-winning paper is designed for optimal output on their digital presses. Unlike ordinary prints, this paper will sustain the colours of your photos and stand the test of time.

The third add-on is a photobooth for the reception. The price is $400 for 2 hours and $500 for 3 hours. We will set up an additional camera/strobes facing a wall or backdrop (if needed) to take photos of your guests having a good time! The package will also include a small album with 150 4×6 photos from your photobooth.

The last product is videography. The price for this additional service has not yet been determined and it depends on what you want to be covered, such as ceremony, formals, reception speeches, etc. The video is 1080P, high definition footage. The video footage is captured with a 5D Mark II. Currently, a small amount cinematic video coverage is part of our Signature package as a complimentary add-on.

A lot of people ask why (wedding) photography is expensive:

Whitney and I are both professionals, and we both shoot with professional photography gear. We have a great amount invested in equipment and we are continually investing in new, innovative equipment to assure our clients top quality. This ensures that Whitney and myself can capture almost any image.

We both have a backup camera. So if one of our cameras break during a shoot or wedding, we both have a second camera in our bags to capture those moments that will not be repeated. We also have many lenses such as: wide angle lenses to capture the environment and also telephoto lenses to get close to the action when it’s further away. We also have a variety of flashes/strobes that lets us help light the natural environment if needed.

Before we even get to the wedding, there are a number of things we have to go over such as: preparing batteries, checking/cleaning cameras and lenses, memory cards, pack our gear, check and double check our preparation lists and camera bags, make sure the directions are ready, and so on.

Arriving at the wedding ceremony, our goal is to use the place/church to make the best possible images. Where is the light coming from? How dark is it inside the building? These are things that we cannot control, but that we have to account for.

Throughout the day, we are constantly visualizing the end result or how the image will look even before it reaches our computers.

When the wedding day is over, our work is just beginning.

We have to back up all the photos, we do this in two ways. Our computers have a RAID array, which automatically backs up one hard drive onto the other. In addition to that, we also back up the photos on external hard drives and DVD roms. (Though, after we deliver the photos to you on a DVD, we can not be held responsible to have the pictures to give to you again. We generally keep them backed up for around 6 months.)

We go through and look at every single image. We check for color/white balance, facial expressions (eyes closed, etc), lighting, background and any distractions. We also select 10-20 images to edit and display on our blog usually within 2 days.

We correct and enhance every single photo, to make sure that every photo is as good as it can be. This could take 20 seconds or this could take 20 minutes on a single photo.

Then your photos are resized and uploaded to the online proofing gallery, for you and your family/friends to view (Prints can also be ordered from the gallery).

If you order your prints from us, we then go back, retouch the image(s) and optimize it’s color for printing. We use a professional lab with calibrated monitors and printing equipment – so that the pictures we see on my screen are exactly what you will see on your prints. Have you ever noticed how you get different color prints from different places?

If you’ve ordered an album with your wedding package, then the album is designed, proofed, ordered, and then delivered. The design process alone can take hours to complete.

If you order canvas prints, they need to be proofed, ordered, stretched/framed, and delivered to you.

If the package includes the data disk, this needs to be made, lightscribed, and mailed to you (two DVD’s can be made for you if requested to keep one as back up).

A one-day wedding can easily turn into a full week of work. A two-hour portrait session can turn into a full day of work.

All this is done to ensure that you have the best possible record of your wedding day!
