Your marriage is the most important ceremony of your life. We want to be a part of your joyous day. Your photographs are the only way of preserving the lasting, living memories of your wedding. Any professional photographer can record visual images of your wedding, but GARY W. SWEETMAN PHOTOGRAPHY can capture the excitement and love to be treasured for generations in Classic Romanticism, Avant-Garde Photojournalism or an artful blend…the choice is yours.

Since your relationship did not begin on your wedding day, your photography need not be limited to that day either. Our LIFESTYLE IMAGERY depicts the fullness of your relationship and can be included at no charge in plans with an asterisk (*), or can be added to our other plans for $189. (including local travel!) We are now offering custom bound guestbooks featuring images from your lifestyle session.

SIGNATURE BOARDS are a great way to remember guest good wishes on a marbleized mat around one of our lifestyle or engagement images! We install it in a “loaner” frame and display it on an easel. A 16x20 mat with a sprayed 8x10 is only $89, and a 20x20 is only $99! 

YOUR BRIDAL PORTRAIT will be the hit of your reception! It also gives you an opportunity to own a GARY W. SWEETMAN portrait at a fraction of the usual price. Included are: a classic, studio sitting (in home or environmental sitting available with an additional fee), and full length and close-ups. These custom portraits are complete with print enhancement and are bonded to tempered hardboard, coated with several coats of lacquer, and ready to frame. We display the portrait in a museum frame at the reception topped with a gallery light. Rush charges may apply to sessions less than 30 days prior to the wedding.

ABOUT MONEY: 1. A $500 retainer is necessary to insure availability. 2. 50% of your invoicing is due prior to the function. 3. Your original balance is due when you pick up your preview album. 4. Ask about our pre-payment bonus!  5. All reprint orders must be pre-paid. 6. We accept cash, checks, Visa, Mastercard, Discover and American Express. Current studio pricing supercedes web-listings. We are not responsible for typographical errors in internet pricing.

ABOUT US: Now in our 4th Decade of outstanding, innovative photography. The diverse influence of advertising, fashion, and theater photography lend richness and excitement to our images. Mr. Sweetman has been producing archival, hand printed silver gelatin prints long before the current wave of “photojournalistic” coverage of wedding became fashionable. We have photographed social functions throughout the Northeast, the central Atlantic states, the Islands, Bermuda, and Florida. The unique style of our photography, consistent quality, professionalism, and speed has earned us the reputation as the leader in the field. We sincerely hope we can be a part of your special day.

Quality, Value, & Professionalism Since 1971!  Voted #1 (again) in 2005!
