What are people saying about Pink?
People are really excited about Pink! Check out our testimonials and see what we mean!

What’s Pink?
Real wedding photojournalism at real prices. After ten years in the wedding photography business, we couldn’t ignore the need for great wedding coverage at a lower price. Pink Photojournalism aims to fill that need in Toledo.

What’s your style?
We are wholehearted wedding photojournalists. Photojournalism is about telling a story – your story – at your wedding. Our emphasis is on capturing real moments as they really happen. We spend twenty to thirty minutes at every wedding getting those important family portraits, but the bulk of your wedding day is spent getting married, instead of posing. We believe people look their most beautiful when they’re not aware they’re being photographed, so we shoot in an unobtrusive manner – no poking, prodding, or staging, in black and white and color. In our photographs, if you look closely, you can see people really enjoying themselves, not faking it for the camera.

Do you shoot formals?
Absolutely. We just don’t spend hours doing it. Our family portraits are posed and photographed efficiently, and in a relaxed manner. We’re laid back, but we know what we’re doing.

Do you shoot in color and black and white?
Definitely. Black and white is a beautiful, classic way to tell a story, but color is the only way to go when you’ve got a bright bouquet of flowers

Why do all your brides look so beautiful?
Our theory is that people look their very best when they’re happy, and when they’re not aware they’re being photographed. Go look at your friend’s photos – the one who hated her photographer – and see how uncomfortable and posed she looks in her proofs. That’s the biggest difference you’ll see between Pink and other wedding photographers.

How much does it cost?
We have only one package, with no need for additions or extra charges. You get all-day coverage, unlimited film, unlimited locations, and all your proofs in three ways – online, on a proof CD, and real proofs for you to keep. Enlargements are priced separately, but are very affordable.

Why only one package?
It saves us time and saves you money to keep it simple. We give you everything you need and let you choose how many prints and/or albums you want.

How much are enlargements?
The only thing you’ll buy from Pink after your wedding are enlargements for frames or to build your own album. Our prices for custom, professional prints, are the lowest in town. Click here for print pricing.

Why don’t you sell albums?
The way we save you money, while still providing top-notch photography, is by making Pink self-serve. Like full-service versus self-serve at the gas station, you get the same product, but you get out of your car and operate the pump to save a little money. With Pink, you get beautiful, documentary-style photography, but you build your own albums, with our help and advice.

What does “build your own album” mean?
When you book Pink, you get access to our album information packet, which gives you the benefit of our decade of experience in wedding photography. We recommend album companies and supplies that many professionals use to make wedding albums. You purchase everything at cost and put together your own wedding albums at truly reasonable prices.

What about the negatives?
Digital negatives are available for purchase on your second anniversary. All of your proofs, however, are included in your package.

Who will my photographer be?
We have three Pink photographers, and a sister company with four photographers. Once you meet with us, we can recommend a photographer for you based on your needs and style. All of us are photojournalists, more interested in capturing the real events of the day and not about posing and staging everything. All of our work is well-represented in our portfolios.

Do you bring an assistant?
We usually don’t need one! We knock ourselves out covering your wedding and shooting hundreds and hundreds of great images. If you are planning a “double wedding” with more than one bride and groom, or expecting more than 500 guests, we prefer to bring an assistant.

How far will you travel?
We will only travel 30 miles from our studio in downtown Toledo. Yes, we will go to Nazareth Hall, Bowling Green, and Maumee Bay State Park. No, we are not currently accepting weddings in Detroit, Ann Arbor, and Findlay. Our sister company, Decisive Moment Photography, goes on-location anywhere.

How long have you been in business?
Pink was born in 2005, but our sister company, Decisive Moment Photography, has been around for ten years, with offices in West Michigan, Royal Oak, and Toledo. Pink shares an office and some staffers with Decisive Moment.

Where are you located?
Our studio is located in downtown Toledo, in the historic Davis Building. Click here for directions.
