A good photographer is a center point in your early stages of booking, usually secured right after the date and venue. Not only should you be in love with their work, you should also know their personality and mesh well, because you’ll be with them all day long! We want to help you get to know some of our 30A-List photographers before making your decision. We sat down with Alena Bakutis Photography to learn more about her work and her personality!
Tell me about your business! What do you do?
I’m a professional wedding and portrait photographer and I love capturing relationships, moments, and the story of your Wedding Day.
How can you tell your service/product is a perfect fit for your clients?
Our clients absolutely love the family heirlooms we create from the photos we took during the wedding – from handcrafted wedding albums, to beautiful wall portraits to remind them about one of the happiest days in their life! We hear a lot of feedback on how it brings memories from the wedding day back and let the couples feel exactly the same as they did on their wedding day!
What inspired you to begin your business?
Before I started my business, I had always been fascinated by the images from the weddings and how gorgeous everything turns out on the wedding day! At that point 9 years ago, I hadn’t been to any weddings but 2 as a guest, so I was drawn to see more! It evolved into wanting to capture that beautiful wedding decor, all the pretty details, parents who are tearing up seeing their babies tying the knot, and the couple who is shining with love!
What’s one of your products/services you’re most proud of, and why?
The handcrafted albums from New Zealand in which the photos are matted into the album pages. They look and feel amazing! (attaching a few photos)
What are some other interests, loves and passions of yours?
Love to travel! Exploring the world and beautiful places is one of my favorite things to do! Bonus: when we have clients we can photograph in those places!
Choose a list of words to describe your style that might resonate with your ideal bride:
