Camarie & Alton are married…. AGAIN!!!

Couples, Event Lighting, Photography, Weddings

At Last Productions was hired to create a monogram for Camarie and Alton but I got to sneak and witness their super sweet commitment to each other. I always try to carry my camera with me. Especially lately. Well because you just never know when you will want it or need it. And if I had a dollar for everytime I’ve said “I wish I had my camera”. Well I’d surely be a thousandaire.

I’m so excited that this day… I did have my camera!!!

Nia & Jason are married!! 5.17.14 The Heal Complex at Paine College Reception

DJ, Event Lighting, Photography, Weddings

At Last Productions had a great time working with some of our very favorite people, Dewayne and Cassandra of Unique Events. They provided exquisite table décor and florals for Nia & Jason’s wedding celebration. I love how beautifully our company compliments others – it never stops amazing me. I say all the time…. We are just a part of a couple’s wedding day, it takes everyone coming together with the same goal to make it fabulous.

We all began setup the day before the wedding. As far as us perfectionists saw it, the preinstalled pipe and draping just wasn’t there yet. We called on John at Moretz Production Service. At Last Productions has personally worked with him before and he really came through for us all in a major way. John provided the finishing touches on the draping around the room and additional setups for the guest entry way and pipe and drape to conceal two staircases that was so desperately needed. It’s in the details. Watching this room go from drab to fab was like watching a day go from dark to light.

Another beautiful picture of the Table, florals and lighting…..

Tonight we meet a stellar vendor – Desmond of Gardenia’s Custom Cakes. His creation for their wedding cake was simply jaw-dropping. He could easily be put into my top 3 wedding cake artists just with the visual alone. Unfortunately I didn’t get to partake in any cake and if you know me – I’m pretty upset over it. I LOVE my cake. However I did have some melt in your mouth cake pops. They were so sweet and yummy I went back for more (don’t tell anyone).

The catering staff of Paine College did an excellent job on the food and dinner service. They created two ice sculptures for the couple. A swan placed directly above their couple table and a huge heart on the dessert buffet. As a matter of fact, everyone we encountered, at Paine College went above and beyond to help in any way they could.

We had an amazing time celebrating with Nia & Jason. Everything was beyond gorgeous. I would say by the look on their faces they had a great time too!!

Do you need help with your event? Do you need vendors that rise to the occasion? Having the right vendors makes all the difference. I can confidently state – we love what we do, care about what we do and truly have the client’s happiness as a top priority. Give us a call or email us today to book your wedding or event!!!

At Last Productions services provided for this event: DJ, Lighting Décor, Custom Monogram and Projection, Cake and Ice Sculpture Lighting. All images used in blog were captured and created by At Last Productions.

7.21.2013 Sea Pines Resort Wedding ~ At Last Productions LLC

Couples, Photography, Weddings

A fellow photographer listed the chance to tag along and photograph a wedding on the ever beautiful Hilton Head Island. It’s been a while since I’ve had the pleasure to shoot a destination wedding, so I couldn’t pass this up. I am grateful and honored to have this amazing opportunity to capture some of Erica & Damien’s wedding at Sea Pines Resort.

The excitement and happiness were contagious as Erica & Damien prepared to see each other and declare their love for one another.

Even though this was my first time meeting Erica & Damien, I feel like I have known them forever!

Programs that doubled as a fan – AWESOME! They were welcomed to help battle the sizzling heat.

Intricately detailed favors gave a gentle reminder of the beach and sea.

Erica & Damien’s ceremony was full of love and emotion. I laugh at myself because I got misty eyed as I watched them make their dedications to each other.

After the ceremony was over we headed over to the lighthouse and took a few pictures. This ended up being my favorite.

At Last Productions would be honored to be a part of your wedding day! We are happy to travel! Contact us today to reserve your wedding day with us!!

Digital Negative vs Enhanced Edit – What’s that mean?

Couples, Photography, Weddings

I have gotten a few questions about what exactly is a digital negative. So let’s take a closer look at what that means.

Back in the days of film when you dropped off that 35mm (or for me… 110 film) with every roll that was developed you received a copy of the negative. This was used for archival purposes and if you needed to obtain a print you had to have the negative.

A Digital Negative is simply this: The unedited photographic digital capture of subjects in color or black and white.

For those clients that do have digital negatives included with their package they are, as needed, balanced for color and exposure.

Below is an example of a Digital Negative:

So how does that compare to an Enhanced Edit and WHY are you charging extra for that?

Well because capturing those amazing moments is just a part of what I do. Transforming those images into feelings, thoughts and ideas takes time and vision. I am only asking that for the hard work and long hours that I spend making that image perfectly representative of what I love and cherish that I be fairly compensated.

I as an artist, woman, wife and mother choose the images that most speak to me and that show the most emotion and feelings from our time together.

Below is an example of an Enhanced Edit:

Those days of film have long since passed us by. But it is very important to understand the importance of archiving digital files regardless if it is a digital negative or an enhanced edit. I urge you to print your most favorite images, show them off and display them proudly in your home. Keep your archival process updated as fast as there are advancements in technology.

These files hold your most treasured memories. If they are there unprotected, they can and will be lost forever.

03.02.2013 Bridal Photography ~ Tiffany ~ At Last Productions LLC

Photography, Weddings

I had a super fun time with Tiffany and her parents. It’s not often that both mom & dad come along on a bridal session. Deep down…. let’s just say – Oh what I wouldn’t give to have a daddy like that!! Yeah, so I had a little bit of jealously. What can I say… there is a special place in my heart for all dads that put it out there for their kids. Oh and yeah, if you’re wondering, mom is a total rockstar!

This was no ordinary day either. Rain threatened and teased us and to be honest I was scared, more than a little. Seeing a bride in a wedding dress… carrying her dress as dad holds an umbrella over her. Let’s just say I was nervous. Did I mention, it was freezing. Tiffany was so amazing and such a trooper!

When the rain really started coming down and the wind picked up speed we decided to go to our second location. I hoped I would get a little warmed up by the heater in my car. When we got to our second location just a short distance away the rain was still coming down and the air was frigid. Mom, Dad & Tiffany took off towards the shelter & I with my equipment in tow was right behind them. Ok maybe not right behind – I’m still working on the fitness thing – Just being honest. With shelter overhead, we continued with our session. Then something wonderful happened. It stopped raining and the wind stopped blowing so wildly. We got our magic going and I got some beautiful shots of Tiffany.

It was an adrenaline rush of a session. In a lot of ways, just like a marriage. Sometimes things will be tough, sometimes they will be gloomy but if you remember why you wanted to marry that special person in the first place – there will always be sunshine in the end!

03.03.13 Trash the Dress Bridal Photography Session ~ At Last Productions LLC

Photography, Weddings

What happens when a bunch of photographers get together and they have a super awesome model? Help her Trash the Dress, of course! I had such a great time meeting Tiffany and getting some images that most of my Brides won’t even let me dream of.

Tiffany was willing to do whatever we asked of her and even transformed her dress from long to short with a simple pair of scissors… this task is not for the faint of heart. But how fun it was!

If you have a super fun idea for a photo session… contact At Last Productions LLC today and we can make it happen!

02.24.13 Jessica & Dwayne ~ Engagement Photography ~ At Last Productions LLC

Couples, Photography, Weddings

OH MY…. I so totally love a couple that’s in LOVE! It’s so amazing that I get to tell a story in pictures of how much two people love each other. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know… It’s sappy and you’ve heard it all before. But you can tell how a man truly feels about his lady in the way that he talks to her, the way he lights up when she’s near him, and by the crazy big smile that drapes over his face when she snuggles up to him.
