Belize Wedding Photographer Information - Christina Craft

Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! We are proud to serve the Belize area, offering our full-service wedding photography packages.

As you browse our site you will notice that there are no typical pose-and-shoot wedding portraits. That's because we believe a natural smile photographs better than a forced one and the greatest compliment we could receive is hearing that we captured the real story of your wedding. Our approach allows you to be yourself and you can trust us to give you wedding photographs that are unlike anyone else's.

Whether you choose a local photographer or an international photographer to cover your wedding in Bali , you have a lot of great choices. Every photographer will have her or his own creative style and unique offerings. Your decision should come down to the photographer whose work appeals to you most. A trained and experienced photographer will have the right camera skills to work in any setting, location, temperature or lighting situation. We believe our approach may be a little bit different from other photographers in the following ways:

• Our travel and accommodations to Belize are included in your wedding photography package price.
• You have your choice of one of two of the world's leading destination wedding photographers.
• Eunice & Christina have degrees in journalism, plus diplomas in photography, so either one of them can offer you completely unscripted, hands-off photojournalism, or you can opt for a fun creative photo shoot. Most people choose something in between these two approaches.
• Eunice & Christina have won a bag full of awards, including high-profile international awards from Kodak, the Wedding Photojournalist Association (WPJA), WedComp and the AGWPJA. Christina's travel photography also placed as a finalist in the BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year competition and the nature's best photography competition.
• Eunice & Christina's work has been featured in the world's leading wedding and fine art magazines.
• Eunice & Christina are leaders in their field - they teach, mentor and inspire other photographers through workshops and courses at Camosun College and the Western Academy of Photography.
• We provide you with an online gallery that's linked to a professional photo lab. That means your friends and family can view your photos and order prints online from their home.
• We accept all major credit cards and our studio also has a wedding gift registry where your guests can contribute towards your photography!

How much are your wedding photography packages for Belize?

Please contact us for a detailed price guide for our wedding photography packages.

How soon can we see our wedding photographs after our day is over?

Normal viewing time is within four weeks of your wedding date or sooner. To ensure every image we provide you is perfect, our post-production generally requires about 30 hours of work. Albums can take an additional 20 hours, plus consultation time.

What is your approach to photographing weddings?

Remember those school portraits where you sat stiffly holding a smile for an eternity? Well... we are the exact opposite of that. We spend the time to get to know you, to find out the kinds of images that appeal to you and to understand the way you want to spend your day. We really want to know how to make sure you can relax and enjoy your wedding. Our team of photographers strives to create images that tell the unique story of your day. We want to give you images that are unlike anyone else's.

What is your style - are you photojournalism, fashion, fine art?

Actually, we offer a blend of all of the above, or you can pick just one and we will customize our style for your taste. Christina and Eunice are inspired by fashion photography, photojournalism and fine art.

What exactly does wedding photojournalism mean? Does this mean you never take posed or directed photos? What if we want some traditional portraits of our families and friends?

If you choose our wedding photojournalism approach we can be as hands off or as hands on as you like. Most people prefer to have their wedding day covered without intrustion, but still want to spend some time doing straight-forward posed family portraits and relaxed-yet-creative couple and wedding party portraits.

Do you ever take posed pictures before the wedding so we can spend more time with our guests after the ceremony?

Absolutely. Many people opt to do this and it does mean you can spend your entire wedding celelebration doing just that -- celebrating!

I look terrible in pictures. I'm worried about how I'll look in pictures on my wedding day.

We hear this all the time and that's why we take the pressure off "put your hands this way and your feet that way" and instead work on getting you to relax in front of the camera. Even during directed moments we will provide you with some straight-forward instructions that ensure you are acting naturally. Many of the people in our wedding gallery told us they were uneasy about having their picture taken and yet they all look like rock stars! I'll bet you won't be able to tell the people who were camera shy.

How can we meet with you to arrange a one-on-one consulation?

You are welcome to contact us with times that work for you and we will arrange a one-on-one phone consultation with you to discuss your wedding further and tell you more about how we work. To help us serve you better, please provide us with your current time zone, plus the location and date of your wedding.
