Hi there!

My name is David and I've just got a brand new camera for Christmas but haven't even taken it out of the box. I really want to get into the wedding photography business because I see so many people in Toronto are getting married and it looks like easy money. I can't guarantee that even one photo will turn out looking good but I sure will try. Some pictures will be used for my portfolio and my future website. I start booking appointments this week! I am now booking for Spring and Summer of 2010. I specialize in all types of Lifestyle photography including: Weddings – You'll have to pay $15 for gas money outside of GTA Bridals Engagements Families Children Portraiture Fashion My style is classy, elegant and artistic. I would be honored to be part of your special occasion or photography needs considering I have no professional experience. I would love to capture those beautiful moments for you and your family. I have so much passion for being a pro wedding photographer! All my friends and family tell me I take great pictures at all our outings and picnics. I'm putting together a web site of all the flower pictures and sunsets I've taken so you can see how good I am. I even have a few pics of my pet dog which turned out really great! But I don't have a business license, liability insurance, flashes, extra batteries, or even more than a kit lens that came in the box. If something goes wrong, you're out of luck. To keep things cheap for you, I won't even back up any of your images. Less cost for me means less cost for you. Just passing the savings on. I expect to be paid in cash or personal check because I don't plan on claiming this income on my taxes. I know many fun and beautiful locations. I really care about making brides look beautiful! I add glow and selective color to all of my images, giving them the best look possible. No need to hassle with computer programs. Bridals and Engagements are only $100. Please trust me to do your wedding. I'll do it cheap just to build up my portfolio. I will only charge you $250 for your entire wedding day. This is a deal. My camera cost me $700 brand new. All sessions include a Hi Resolution CD with FULL copy right release included, which means you get to print your pictures at Wal-Mart! Here's the BEST Part! I offer 100% guarantee on ALL my sessions! Don't pay a cent until you are 100% happy with your pictures! I own a camera therefore I can take photos like the pros, who charge a lot more. Most brides in Toronto spend $3,000 on professional wedding photography. Since I have no experience I'll only be charging $300 (90% off regular wedding photography prices) to shoot full day wedding coverage. Think about it: Pros charge a lot of money because they have a lot of expenses. I don't. Pros have: -a business license - multiple cameras -thousands of dollars in lenses and flashes -hard drives to back up the images -insurance -experience -people skills -color calibrated monitors -professional print labs -professional albums I have none of this stuff so we'll keep it cheap, just for you! E-mail me if you want to set an appointment or if you have any questions, I will gladly respond.
