Nice to meet you!
My name is Christine Bradshaw
Oh where should I start!!!
I am a Southern California native and current resident but I will forever call Colorado home. When I'm not photographing madly in love couples and super fun families, I am either fishing, cooking, getting lost somewhere in the mountains or searching for a new super cool hidden speakeasy.
I would consider my style playful, romantic and true to color. I focus not only on creating timeless images, but the feeling that those images will give you every time you look at them.
I love photography because it gives people physical memories of milestones in their lives. I get to photograph families every year and watch them grow. Whether it is an engagement, wedding, birthday, maternity and family photoshoot, you'll be able to pass down these memories to your loved ones.
WORLD WIDE! Every time I say that I think of movie Step-Brothers. And I know I'm not the only one! lol. Yup..you totally just quoted that line in your head. Travel is included in some packages that I have. If it is not the travel fees depend on the location and we will go over details during our first photographer/client meeting
It depends on what package you get but it will be anywhere from a minimum of 250-600 images or more! All lighting, backgrounds, and color correction will be done to your images. YES, B&W(black and white) is included. Black and Whites will be chosen by the photographer but if there is any image where you're like "Holy crap I want this in black and white!", I gotchu'. In the photo delivery email will be directions on how to tell me that you'd like it B&W.
This one is sooo important when choosing an elopement photographer! YES we will help you find a location as well as work with you on a timeline for best lighting. We will also talk about the best time to be at that location. People usually think all photoshoot should be taking during sunset. Although that is true about 70% of the time, a few locations are done during sunrise. for example...in Yosemite...Glacier point should be done during sunrise because the sun comes over Half Dome with such beauty that it creates flawless sunrays during your early morning photos. While at Taft Point your images should be take during sunset so the sun makes this orangey/golden glow throughout the valley.
You will be receiving your images on an online downloadable gallery. The photos can be downloaded via phone, tablet or desktop and the photos will be in high resolution. Instruction on how to download and write noted on your images will be in the delivery email. I usually will have your images done within 4-6 weeks unless it is busy wedding season(spring/fall). If it happens for whatever reason to take longer than that I will get in contact with you ASAP!
Making people laugh and getting to witness the milestones in their lives is something remarkable. I'm the person that documents the day you say yes, the day you say I do, the day you announce your expecting a little one, your babies first breathe, your first family photos and sometimes your last family photos. Photos that you can hang in your home to show and tell stories about, photos that you'll pass down to your kids and photos you'll look at and they will put you on the brink of crying because the memories are so dear to your heart. I put your memories into physical objects.
Yes. I have a one million dollar policy for me, my equipment and everyone on my team.
I do thing a little differently when it comes to shot list. I feel list a shot list takes away from the creativity of the day. Instead of a shot list I recommend creating a Pinterest board for inspiration and linking me to it. I would also like to meet with you at your venue and discuss exactly what you're wanting so we both are on the same page and have a game plan on your wedding day. One thing I will ask from you is a list of names or parties that you'd like your formal family photos with.
