Cupcakes...YUM!!-Plymouth/Cape Cod Portrait Photographer

Here at The Mirrored Image Photography, we work on all types of photos.  We were fortunate enough recently to work with an excellent company with a really neat product.  Dress My Cupcake makes a great cupcake wrapper to add some finesse to your cupcakes, see for yourself at http://www.dressmycupcake.com.  They are these excellent cupcake wrappers that you put over your cupcakes after they are cooked to, well, dress them up!  We were so inspired while photographing these and thought that our readers might find them to be fun as well!  Here are some of the fruits (or cupcakes as the case may be) of our labor.

On my Day off..More pictures-Plymouth/Cape Cod Portrait Photographer

My husband Dave and I decided to spend the day in Boston yesterday.  What would any wedding photographer want to do on her day off?  Go to a church and take more pictures...of course there had to be dessert some place in there too!

Here are a few from Trinity Church:

After lunch we stopped at a really cute cupcake place on Charles Street in Boston called Curlycakes, YUM!

At the end of our it was off to a cute little coffee place on Newbury St for coffee and more dessert!

Now Maybe it is salads for the rest of the week :)

Should you pay for prints?

There are two different type of photographers when it comes to weddings.  There are the people that choose to offer you one flat fee.  For X dollars you are provided with a certain number of hours of shooting , the editing time, and all the images that are worth keeping.  You can add on albums for an extra charge, but you can also take the images and print them as you like, creating your own album.  On the flip side, you can hire a photographer that will charge you less for time on the day of the wedding and then charge you per print or image after the fact.  There is no right or wrong answer to what you choose.  It all depends on what you are looking for.  In the advent of digital photography, we like the idea of giving our clients all their images and allowing them to choose when and at what cost to do their albums.  This gives us and the client more flexibility in the pricing.  Weddings can be an expensive venture, it is nice to have the digital images, to print a few on your own and to wait on albums. This way, everyone can see your images and you can feel satisfied that you have everything you need to do an album later but still have something to show to people when they ask if you have your wedding pictures.  Depending on the album, prices range anywhere from 300.00 to 1500.00 to create.  Work with your photographer to see what their style is and how it best fits your needs.  Don't be afraid to ask a lot of questions or to let them know what your concerns are so that you can find what best fits you!
