Wedding Photography is something of a zero-sum game.

Something either costs more, or it is inferior quality.
Said another way, the only thing more expensive than good photography is cheap photography.

Weddings are a one-and-done. The photographer either nails it or the moments are lost forever.

I can’t tell you what you should spend on your wedding photography.
But I can tell you that the decision of who to trust is more important than just a number on paper.

I can tell you my clients love me because:

  1. I’m organized

  2. I’m fun

  3. I’m fast

  4. I create timeless artwork

    What will you spend?

Until we talk, it is hard to name a price of how much you'll decide you can invest in the final product.
I am steadfastly against being a sales-person;
I offer myself as a guide in the process who will ensure you have tears of joy when we complete the project.
To offer this level of personalized service, I cannot be a bargain photographer: and I make no apology for that. 
I can't and won't tell you exactly what to spend with me. 
This much I can tell you: my clients never regret their investment and you are only guided to what best suits your needs. 

As a starting point:
MDKauffmann Photography weddings start at $2400 and
elopement experiences start at $1400.

Let's do it!
