About this vendor
Our goal at Rocket Lens photography is to make sure you have the best & most enjoyable photography experience possible! Besides offering high quality, professional photography, we offer suggestions, advice and help come up with a photo timeline that fits inside the timeline for your big day. We also know that the majority of couples may not be used to being in front of a camera (I know that feeling as well!), we'll make sure you are comfortable & enjoy yourselves!
Every couple has different goals and visions for their wedding photography just as every photographer has a different, unique style. It's very important that you find a photographer that fits the overall vibe you may want for your wedding day. My preferred style is typically a healthy mix of traditional, romantic poses mixed with fun, candid photos which is tuned to each couple's overall desires.
