Some of our wedding photography clients want something different than clanking glasses at their reception when guests want them to kiss. Have you thought about a kissing bell? They make a neat keepsake for the guests, and are elegant and fun! Perhaps the guest will need to ring the bell and show a kissing example before the bride and groom kiss? Fun for the reception and a great photography opportunity!

Victoria has many incredible locations for stunning wedding images, and one of our favorite locations is downtown Victoria, and Chinatown. I knew this image was a keeper when we shot it– everything just fell into place for us. We then used a few Photoshop tricks to pull out the reds, and focus the image on our bride and groom. Hope you enjoy the image as much as we do!

One of our clients last year had personalized Jones’ Soda Bottles at their reception. It was a huge hit! They took photographs of themselves (something I can help you with) and had the Jones’ Soda company produce bottles with their custom lables. Todd and Jennifer photographs were of all of the places they had been together, and it was a great keepsake that their guests loved.

Dear David and Yasuko,
Thank you both so very much for everything. The photographs are fantastic, and so much fun. So many of the shots are unique, and have definitely captured the story of our day! We already knew this, BUT you are truly the best.
With sincere appreciation and thanks,
Sheila and Clemens
I love the job you guys did on the headshots! Thanks so much to you and your wife for a very professional job. We will have to book the others sometime soon, but I’m still trying to catch my breath.

How are you doing? Well, I just have to tell you, I love it, love it, love it and just love it. We are so very happy with the images you have taken of our very special day.

You are both wonderful, many, many thanks!

David,
I just wanted to comment again on how much we LOVE all of the wedding photographs. You and Yasuko did a PHENOMENAL job! I think I have spent 10 of the last 20 hours just looking them over and over and over!
It was such a pleasure to work with you, and we’ll see you again in the future for other ‘big events’ that need photographing!
All the best,
Carly and Ben
Dear David,
I want to let you know that my experience with Art Studio 21 Photography exceeded my expectations.
As a professional who supports many businesses in creating great customer relationships I appreciated being in the hands of a true professional photographer.
From the booking through the shoot, through to the retouching and mailing of the final headshot images, I was very impressed.
I was particularly impressed with your confidence and your skill during the photo shoot. Your knowledge of what is needed to obtain a truly great headshot, and to help your subject understand what you are doing was a great experience.
I am extremely happy with the final product and know that these images will support me in marketing my business successfully.
Keep up the excellent work,
Clemens
We just finished shooting and retouching some wonderful maternity photographs for our clients last week. They were fantastic images! We had lots of cool ideas and props for some unique and memorable images. It was their first baby, so there were super excited about everything. Last week, their baby girl was born! Congratulations you guys!
