WELCOME

C H R I S SY RO S E P H OTO G R A P H Y 5

YO U ’ R E G E T T I N G M A R R I E D ! Congratulations, I am so happy for you and can’t wait to learn more about you and what you have in store for your big day.

Thank you for considering me as your wedding photographer. It is my dream to work in this industry capturing all

the love, joy and promise that a wedding represents. Simply by considering me, you are helping support my dream.

Thanks for that!

My photography style is simple, sharp, high-contrast

and vibrant. During the course of a wedding, I shoot

photojournalistically, but I also direct bridal and formal

portraits to ensure we capture the best images from

your day. I believe details tare what make your wedding

yours and should be spotlighted in the photo-story of

your day. Let’s not forget the candid smiles, glances,

reactions, expressions and special moments that will

take place just long enough for my shutter to freeze in

time. You’ll want to cherish and share those and you will

be able to through your photography.

This brochure gives you a great overview of my services and packages. Please enjoy the beautiful images I have

included. You can take a look at more of my work at chrissyrosephotography.com.

Now–with you supporting my dream, I hope I have the same opportunity for you by serving as your photographer on

one of the happiest days of your life!

“ I believe details are what make

your wedding yours and should

be spotlighted in the photo-

story of your day.”

YOUR DAY

PLANNING YOUR WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY I know planning a wedding is an overwhelming process. So many vendors. So many details. So much to do. I can help make the

wedding photography portion of your to-do list much easier. Here is an outline of the process and how we will work together:

Booking

To book your session, send your wedding date and the

photography package you’ve selected. We will prepare a contract

for your review. Your date is secured with a signed contract and

50% deposit.

Engagement Session

I include an engagement session with all my packages at no additional cost because I feel the e-session is so important to

our relationship building. It serves as a wonderful warm-up for the big day. We become more comfortable working with

each other. You become more comfortable in front of my camera. And you get some beautiful photos in the process.

It really is an important step to ensuring we capture your wedding. We will work together to make this session and

experience personal and unique to you as a couple.

Second Shooter

I highly recommend investing in adding a second shooter to your wedding day package. A second shooter helps provide

a more comprehensive and well-rounded perspective on your day. A single shooter cannot be in more than one place at

once so you miss out on key points-of-view, moments and coverage.

Planning

As you work out the details of your wedding, we will finalize the photography schedule for your day. I will ask you

lots of questions about your day. From those details, I will build a full wedding photography itinerary and shot sheet.

You will have an opportunity to approve these to ensure we are capturing it all! This process is finalized approximately

4 weeks before your wedding. You will receive many confirmations, updates and other friendly messages from me to

stay connected leading up to your big day.

“ I can help make the wedding

photography portion of your

to-do list much easier. ”

PLANNING YOUR WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY

Adding On

Should you find that you want or need features added to your photography package, changes can be made easily via

email. All changes must be made in writing.

Your Day

On your big day, you won’t have to worry about anything with regards to photography. We will put our schedule to work and

if something needs to be changed it will be easy to adjust without missing a beat. You can enjoy your day without any worry.

Feeding Your Vendors

All vendors will be working super hard the day of your

wedding, so please remember to feed them. Chrissy Rose

Photography requests that all shooters be accounted for

with the caterer for a hot meal along with your guests.

We should be served at the same time and in the same

location as the guests. This ensures we continue to be

accessible for those unscheduled moments.

What You Can Expect

I will be shooting a great deal during your wedding day to ensure I get many different views, angles, looks, smiles,

moments and creative composition. I also take great care in selecting the best images from those thousands for you to

treasure. I guarantee 80-100 final images per hour of service. So for 8 hours of coverage you can expect approximately

600 images. And all of those are fully edited and provided in high resolution with your digital files package.

Image Preservation and Storage

My digital cameras are equipped with back up memory card capabilities. I always use two memory cards in my camera

while shooting weddings. This provides a second set of digital files in case a memory card malfunctions. When the photos

are uploaded, they are stored in three locations, including one off-site location to ensure your files are safely stored.

“ On your big day, you won’t

have to worry about anything

with regards to photograpy. ”

ABOUT

HI, I ’M CHRISSY ROSE KRUGER-GRUENDYKE! But you can just call me Chrissy. I have a thrill for life, love of food and addiction to chai

lattes. I read myself to sleep every night and dream of someday my daughter telling me that I

am the greatest woman she has ever known. I am a photographer, mom, wife and compulsive

list maker. I do everything 150%, much to my own exhaustion. My best friend and I have

been besties since 2nd grade. My husband and I have been together since I was 18. Watching

good TV wrapped in a cozy blanket is my idea of a great evening.

I have two of the cutest and most pathetic

pets—one dog and one cat. No, they do not

get along, but somehow they put aside their differences long enough for

them to hog the bed at night. We love them anyway. Every year I try to

plan and create an “epic” family holiday card – always with the goal to

outdo the previous year. I typically start on it in the summer and I obsess

about it until I hear from anyone who received it after Thanksgiving.

I love football...so long as it is the last part of a really good game. I typically cheer for the underdog, unless FSU is playing

and then I have to stick with my alma mater. Eating out is a wonderful treat...I love it! – Especially Sunday breakfasts

out. My hubs and I see a lot of concerts—partially so I can contribute to my “cool bands” t-shirt collection (which has

grown quite a bit since moving to Milwuakee!) My only wish is that I would have started it back in college. My degree is

in communications and I worked in public relations before persuing this dream...Chrissy Rose Photography.

I am not a Milwuakee native. We relocated here from Florida – and yes, we enjoy life here (weather and all). I love this

community for all the different neighborhoods, summer festivities and the concert schedules throughout the year. I love

to travel, but road trips are not my favorite. I am completely “navigationally” challenged – even with a GPS. I am terrible

with names but great with recognizing faces and voices. I have an unsettling ability to remember lyrics to songs after

hearing them once, but I often forget my ATM pin number – it is just weird how my memory works and doesn’t work

sometimes. Oh and I change my hair every few years. I love art and believe that what I do is art and I truly love what I do.

“ I love football...so long as

it is the last part of a really

good game.”

TESTIMONIALS

WHAT THEY’RE SAYING “Chrissy never stopped impressing us with her creativity and sensitivity to

what we were looking for. Our pictures turned out AMAZING!!!! Chrissy was

fantastic on our NYE wedding day. She and her assistant took care to catch all

of those special moments for us with her creative touch. She even spent the

ENTIRE day with us from the morning to the NYE countdown. Some of our

favorite shots were the candid moments she caught during the reception. Chrissy

did such a great job of knowing exactly what to capture without us having to

“hold her hand” throughout the day! She comes highly recommended by us!”

– Ashley and Mark DeSanctis, married December 31, 2011

“Chrissy was an absolute joy to work with – creative, professional and inspiring! She captured

my wedding day to the tee and literally handed me the perfect wedding memories. I cannot

recommend her enough. I believe that wedding photography is a big decision because you

are trusting your photographer to capture a moment in time that you and your fiance have

worked and planned for, sometimes years in advance. Chrissy delivered above and beyond

anything I could have even hoped for! She hit everything on my shot list, and delivered

hundreds of creative shots that only she could come up with. I highly recommend her work

and would not hesitate to work with her again.”

– Karen and Josh Pestrak, married October 15, 2010

“Chrissy exemplified the perfect photographer for a wedding. She was so helpful in poses and capturing special

moments we can treasure for a lifetime. In her photographs, she captured so many details from emotion to casual from

fun to elegance. My CD from the wedding was arranged so beautifully I have received many compliments from

friends and family members who have viewed it. If you want your wedding photos to be a treasure for a lifetime, I

recommend Chrissy Rose Photography.”

– Shelley and Paul married February 19, 2011

WHAT THEY’RE SAYING

Working with Chrissy has been a wonderful experience. She is extremely kind, professional

and skilled. Working with Chrissy is extremely easy and comfortable and all of her work

looks amazing. We have received nothing except compliments on our wedding photos.

Even our videographer mentioned how he was surprised by how quickly Chrissy moves

around to ensure she is able to get the best shots and capture all of the important moments.

We also ordered an album from Chrissy and it is of the highest quality and very well-

designed. Like all of her work, it is of supurb quality.

– Yukari and Brad Wollner, Married August 25, 2012

From our initial conversations and planning, to the partnership established throughout our engagement session and

constant communication, to the actual event and all of Chrissy’s creative touches...simply put...she was amazing!

– Nicole and Bob Fessett, Married October 12, 2013

Chrissy was the photographer for our wedding. Our pictures turned out amazing! We loved them and stil do!

She captured our big day and gave us perfect pictures to help us remember every moment. Thank you Chrissy

for going the extra mile! Don’t hesitate to call her!

– Gina Lisko and Julie Taylor, Married November 11, 2011

I am a wedding planner and I worked with Chrissy for my

client’s wedding. She is such a wonderful photographer

to work with. Very professional but also very personable!

She is also really accommodating. For their engagement

session, they did it in a snowstorm! And it turned out to

be gorgeous! Also I have never seen a photographer slide under a huddle to get a great picture from the floor! Oh and I

can’t forget to mention that I love her work! She is very artisitic and has a great eye. My clients could not be happier...she

made it so comfortable for them and they love their pictures! I look forward to working with her again.

– Catharine Han, Your Dream Wedding and Events Planner
