What is an Associate Photographer and why use one?
An associate photographer is someone who works under my brand who I have trained and invested time into so that they can represent Heather Scharf Photography in every sense of the word. Basically, Danielle is someone I trust my life and your most important day! Although the associate photography pricing is lower, you are still getting the same quality of work, same aesthetic, and same overall experience as if you were working with me. I do all pre-wedding consulting and preparation as well as the engagement and wedding photo editing so that all your images are processed to perfection and reflect the Heather Scharf Photography signature look!
A little more about Danielle:
“My interest in photography started when I took a solo trip to Cambodia in 2007 to join other aspiring photographers from around the world for a photography quest I just happened to see online. I spent my time there documenting families that we met in various villages around Siem Reap, and I quickly developed a thirst for photojournalism, and the art of storytelling through images. I came home from that trip with a newfound compulsion to tell other peoples stories, and as luck would have it, a few friends had asked me to shoot their wedding. “A few friends” turned into “friends of friends”, and eventually allowed me to leave the corporate world to go full time with my wedding photography business. Since then I have shot over 100 weddings and I have been telling the stories of people in love. I am passionate about capturing fleeting moments and fragments of seconds during wedding days that would otherwise go unnoticed. I want the couples I work with to ‘laugh-cry’ the first time they see their wedding images, and then years after that. I want your wedding images to be a reflection of who you are, and what speaks to you as a couple, versus anything you’d see on a Pinterest board. I want you to feel confident that you’re in good hands, and that I’ll also tell you what to do with them (because hands feel instantly awkward on our bodies the second a camera is on us- don’t worry, I’m prepared). And most importantly, I want you to eat ALL of your dinner on your wedding and at least two pieces of cake so you’ll have dancing fuel.”
