Booking Bright Light Studios
What Makes Us Unique?
Here at Bright Light Studios, we are all about the customer experience. Unlike those other photography companies out there that focus only on booking a high quantity of weddings, we only do a max amount of 40 weddings per year, that way we can focus on each and every one of our clients to make it a unique experience. Check out some information below that might help you in understanding what you would want to be included in your package.
Natural Light Vs. Off-Camera Flash
Both Styles of photography have their own merits. The photo on the left is a natural light photo while the photo on the right is done with off-camera lighting. Off-camera lighting requires a unique lighting setup to achieve those stylizes of images. Which do you like more?
Stylized Images
A Stylized Image is a uniquely creative image that has that “wow” factor! In order to do a stylized image, it requires a lighting setup and multiple photos. A photo like this takes roughly 4 to 5 images that get blended into one image. If you choose a premium package we do our best to get you 5 to 10 stylized images.
High-End Edits
Having an off-camera lighting setup also allows us to do things such as sky replacements and tonality shifts. The bride & groom above got married in the winter in the morning. They both wanted a sunset photo, since you can’t get a sunset during the morning we lit the scene in a specific way so that we were able to do a high-end edit and replace the sky into a sunset image and shift their skin tones to match the coloration of the sky.
I am Sam Abdallah and I am your photographer! Any of the photos you may have seen on here, Facebook, Instagram, or wherever are my own personal photos. Unlike a lot of other places that send random photographers to you on your wedding day I make sure that you know who you are booking and the work, you are getting before you sign with us. We do have 15 other photographers that train and work with us so if you need more than just me on your wedding day or if I am not available for your wedding day we have a lot of very skilled and talented photographers to choose from!
I am the owner of the company!
Not only am I the lead photographer, but I am also the owner of the company. I am the person who you will speak to about your day. I will create your contracts, make your day-of schedule and handle everything for you from point A to Z! Once you book with us you also get my direct cell phone number where you are free to text me whenever you’d like! One of my biggest pet peeves is when you hire a vendor and they are impossible to get a hold of!

Wedding Photography
We offer three different styles of photography packages. Budget Range, Premium Range and Platinum range. Our budget range package is made for those on a tighter budget and is what’s known as your “Essentials Package”, it gives you only what you need to cover your day without any special add-ons. Our Premium Range and Platinum range packages get you the full experience, it gives you high-end edits, stylized editing, creative lighting, and much more. All of your photos will be hosted on our web gallery for a minimum of 1 year. We have no intention of removing your gallery, but it’s guaranteed to be there for at least a year. Which package suits you?
Budget Packages
Our budget packages start with 1 photographer, the number of hours that you need, and then a set amount of full quality photos from the photos taken. What that basically means is that if we take 1500 photos (for example), we will edit and adjust all 1500 photos before you see anything at all. Then we will upload the 1500 photos into an online proofing gallery where the images are sized at 4” x 6”. From there you could download those proofs right from there if you’d like, none of them are watermarked, the only restriction is that they cant be re-sized larger than 4” x 6”. The budget package would then tell you to pick out 250 of your favorite photos from that gallery and the 250 you pick will be put in a different gallery where those images will be in full quality where you could print at any size you would like.
Premium/Platinum Packages
Our premium and platinum packages start with 1 photographer (our Platinum has 2 photographers), the number of hours you need, it includes creative lighting for stylized / High-End edits, Beauty editing on any close-up portraits during the photoshoot and you get ALL of the photos in full quality. Unlike the budget package where you are given a limited amount of photos in full quality, the premium & platinum packages give you everything in full quality. When booking a premium range or platinum package we do our best to shoot in every style (Light & Airy, Stylized, Dramatic, Posed, Unposed, etc.)

Engagement Photoshoots
Every wedding photography package comes with a free natural light engagement photoshoot! If you choose a budget range package you get a free 1-hour long natural light photoshoot at select locations. If you choose a premium range package you get a free 2-hour long natural light photoshoot at select locations. The photoshoot is done so we could get to know one another, so you could get practice with me and so when the wedding happens we’re all already in sync!

Albums & Prints
Albums & Prints are a great way to showcase your beautiful photos after the wedding, but albums and large-scale prints can be very pricey! We tell all of our clients to get an album from us any time from November to March (off-season) because our album company runs discounted rates that we pass on to you during that time! We also have some packages that include albums in them as well!
Albums start at $499.99 and go up based on size and style.
