How to get a wedding photography discount for just being YOU

They say that things that sound too good to be true, usually are. But this is Offbeat Bride, where we do away with “the usual.” In the case of our sponsor Justine Johnson, her deals are just as good as they sound… You either have the chance to have a completely free, completely amazing wedding photographer, just for being your completely awesome selves. Just for being you doing “you.”

Here’s how you can get Justine to shoot your wedding for either free, or deeply discounted…

Your wedding theme, venue, or hair could get you a SLAMMIN’ photography discount

Wedding photography real talk: The more you photograph weddings, the more talented you become. And the more you talented you become, the more you charge for your super-awesome-above-the-norm services. Which is great — Yay kicking ass at your craft! BUT the more you charge… the less you shoot certain kinds of lower-budget offbeat weddings.

That’s why Karina Picache of OhKarina Photography. has a master plan that involves THREE special discounts for Offbeat Bride readers. One involves Karina’s own photography wishlist…

Jess & Mac’s LEGO-tastic museum wedding

A local waterworks museum is a pretty rad venue for a LEGO-themed wedding like this. This pair loves engineering, color, and having a grand time building with LEGO. They may have been concerned that their guests wouldn’t jive with the theme, but boy were those fears unfounded. You’ll want to see how they incorporated LEGO into their cake, their ceremony, and even their shoes. Just watch out for the bride’s grandma… she’s feisty!

Sarah & Tasha’s tattooed and not-strictly-traditional wedding

These ladies successfully merged traditional and offbeat with their lovely white dresses, ice cream bar instead of a cake, mixed-gender (and fashion) wedding party, and eerily similar vows that they didn’t even plan out together! Oh, and wait until you see the adorable twist on the “choose a seat, not a side” sign!

Stephanie & Matthew’s music wine burgers and love wedding

Take tons of music, a musical seating chart, favorite band centerpieces, an amazing wine bar, and an awesome cake decorated with the family in their pajamas and you’ve got this blended family wedding. There’s also a really touching memorial to the bride’s mother who died on 9/11 — totally tear-worthy.
