Derek,
WELCOME!
It was so lovely meeting you. Thank you for your consideration. Below you can find the information from our call. Excited to see it all unfold. xx

THE APPROACH
THE MENTALITY BEHIND THE ARTISTRY
Candid
The majority of your photos will be of your laughing and embracing your loved ones. Portrait photos will mostly consist of holding hands, slow dancings, long hugs, and sweet kisses. The experience will always be valued over the photograph. Your happiness is our top priority.
Editorial
Although the majority of your photos will be candid, you will also receive photographic direction as needed and have the opportunity to take creative portraits upon request. Your detail photos will be taken with an artistic eye, and you will receive enough direction such that you will feel that the photos are complimentary to you. The composition, color work, and artistry will remind you of the day, but will also be emotive and aesthetic.
Documentary- style
In a world of artificial content, digitized bodies, and false representations of reality, you can rest assured knowing that your wedding photos will reflect nothing but reality. Edits are true-toned and film inspired; photoshop is minimal. This is an art of capturing true fleeting moments, not an art of creating something that wasn’t.
THE EXPERIENCE
WHAT CAN’T BE SEEN IN PHOTOGRAPHS
After the cake is eaten, the flowers have died, and friends and family have returned home, all that remains will be memories and the photos that hold them.
Every member of the Miranda Tate Photography team holds creativity, authenticity, and candor as the highest core values. You will be set up for success with realistic and authenticity-oriented photography timelines that give time for personal moments and the people who matter most. Your photographer will arrive early and prepared, ready to spend the day with you capturing true and lasting moments. We will laugh and cry together. All wedding images will be edited and delivered within four weeks, giving time for you to treasure them before the memories have faded, immortalizing moments to last a lifetime.
“Miranda was our wedding photographer and I cannot even begin to say how grateful I am for her! From the moment I first talked to her she felt like an old friend. This ended up being so important because she put us at ease and was a joy to work with throughout the whole process.
One thing I love about Miranda is the way she captures moments. From our getting ready photos to the after party, looking at the photos I feel like I’m back in that moment! All of our photos were organized by a timeline and we were able to access them through her website which was nice. The quality is amazing and just by looking at them I get to re-live our day.
We have already hung our favorites up on our walls and I know that I will be going back to them year after year.
Miranda is such a special and amazing person. She is definitely someone you want with you on the most important day of your life!
Thank you for everything Miranda.”

“First and foremost, Miranda blew me away with her generosity and kindness. I could not believe how much time was dedicated above and beyond what we had discussed.
The photos are absolutely everything to me, and brought happy tears. Each photo is so beautiful and many reminded me of tiny moments from that special day that got lost in all the excitement; it makes me wonder how many of those we lose in a day.
Miranda, please don't ever stop following your heart, because it's beautiful, and I think that's how God intended it.”
