The Benefits of Selecting Philip Kent
For Your Wedding Photography
Experience--- With an average of 20 years of experience, Master Photographer Philip Kent and his partners have some of the broadest range of skills and talent to capture and preserve those once-in-a-lifetime memories of your wedding day. We have worked at and are familiar with almost every wedding and reception venue in the area.
Quality--- Our overall service is customized and personalized for you. Using the latest professional digital technology and lighting combined with a philosophy of always doing the very best work gives you the highest assurance of total satisfaction with our service and product. This philosophy of excellence is further enhanced by active membership in the Professional Photographers of America. Finally, we use the very best professional albums and accessory items available today.
Price--- Please compare our pricing with the very few studios in the area that can provide the top-level Professional Photography for which we are known. You’ll find our Wedding Photography surprisingly affordable with our normal $1,450 to $1,750 coverage and a great value for your wedding day. And with the average couple’s budget of $2-3,000 in this area, you can get quite a bit! There is always someone with lower prices, such as part-timers or the large regional chains, but not at the level of service, expertise and experience for which we are recognized. Spending $5,000 to $10,000 is not going to provide you with better photography. One client described us as a high-end studio but with average prices!
Flexibility--- Our skills enable us to customize our coverage for those who want a more photojournalistic look to their wedding memories or a more traditional look with a mix of natural portraits and candid images. We can suggest various styles and ideas that will fit your preferences and tastes. We can also provide internet hosting of your images for out-of-town relatives and friends and a variety of other options for your convenience. And of course you have a choice of the industry’s finest traditional and digitally-designed custom albums.
Unobtrusive--- Our unobtrusive, professional style of photographing your event will enable you to enjoy your day with posing time kept to a minimum. We make it all as stress-free as possible! Your time on your wedding day will be enjoyed to the fullest with your family and friends. Many say they barely noticed us on the wedding day.
Reputation--- We spend little on marketing and advertising. We are a referral business and about 3 of every 4 weddings we photograph are the result of the many referrals from couples who have used us or reception sites or planners who have worked with us. We hope we can be of service to photograph your event and you will be pleased to recommend us to a future couple planning their big day!
Convenience--- Our regular studio hours Monday to Friday and location enable you to visit or contact us anytime during the week. We do not work part-time out of a home so we’re always reachable and our success over the years has enabled us to expand into a convenient commercial location close to Tysons Corner Center, near the beltway, Rts. 7 & 123. Our studio & gallery is perfect for our visiting wedding clients. Call us today for a no-obligation appointment to stop in and see us at 703-790-1020.
Optional Video Coverage
Discreet and unobtrusive, we have offered optional video coverage of weddings since 1983. We use all professional commercial equipment, including wireless microphones & lighting as needed. All necessary editing is included. For those interested in video coverage of their wedding, this is a great package when ordered with our photography!
