Then this web page is not for you. I'm sorry for wasting your time. Please read no further.

Then this is going to be the most exciting website you have ever gone to - Really!
My name is Paul Bormann, and I LOVE weddings! I've been photographing them for 18 years because I love the emotion and romance of your wedding.

Here's How To Have The Most Magical, Romantic, And Emotional Wedding Day Of Your Dreams!
If you're still reading, let me congratulate you. This means you want to be the most beautiful bride anywhere. You want your wedding to be a wonderfully emotional and romantic day. You want to have everything go smoothly and perfectly. You want to have a great time. You want to see all your guests, and have them also have a fun time. Well, here's how to do it:

Here's 6 Secrets To Having The Wedding Of Your Dreams!

SECRET #1: How To Guarantee Your Wedding Lives Up To Your Dreams.
Believe it or not, the photographer you select to photograph your wedding can make or break your wedding day. Yes, I kid you not, your wedding day - not just your photographs! Why? Because he's THERE - with you and your family, in person - interacting with all your family and guests - and representing you every minute.

Now, HONESTLY, we’re not just talking about photography here - we're talking about YOUR WEDDING - how YOU FEEL on your wedding day, and how smoothly and romantically everything goes. You see, your photographer determines this, by the way he helps you plan your wedding, the way he treats you and your loved ones, and the way he conducts himself throughout the day.

Critical Secret Revealed - What Other Wedding Photographers Don't Want You To Know!
So here's the secret: Meet the photographer - IN PERSON - before you hire anyone to photograph your wedding! Most brides don't realize that many studios hire part time photographers to photograph their weddings for them - high school and college kids, friends, relatives, etc. This means that you go to a studio, talk with a salesperson, look at their samples, and make a decision - without really knowing who will be photographing your wedding!

And if it's not just the right person doing the photography, and interacting with all your family and guests, everything can be ruined!

So, when you're talking with a potential studio, ask them the following questions:
1. Who did these photographs you are showing me?
2. Who, by name, will be photographing our wedding if we hire your studio?
3. We want to MEET this person, BEFORE we hire your studio.

Then, when you meet this person, ask him or her the following questions:
1. How will you dress at my wedding?
2. Did you do ALL the samples of wedding photography we saw in the sample books? If not, show us YOUR work, please.
3. How long have you been photographing weddings?
4. How long will you be at my wedding?
5. Before you leave our wedding, who do you check with first to see if there's anything else we would like you to do?
Then, decide if you REALLY LIKE HIM or HER, as well as their work! Because he's going to be spending a lot of time with you and your family and friends, on your important day.

By the way, just so you know, here's my answers to those questions:
I will dress in a nice coat & mock neck sweater, NOT A TUX - I don't want to compete with your groom and groomsmen and the fathers, and I also don't want to dress casually, and not represent you professionally. (If it’s really hot outside, I may take my coat off for the outdoor non-ceremony photos, you don’t want me passing out from heat exhaustion!)

I'm the primary photographer at my studio. I will be photographing your wedding personally if you are the first person to book your date. If I’m already booked on your date, Victoria will be your photographer. You’ll know that when you first call us. You’ll meet with her and see samples of her work. Victoria is also a very artistic, accomplished photographer with 13 years wedding experience. I trust her implicitly to do every bit as good a job as I would in capturing your wedding and creating beautiful portraits of the two of you and your family. As a mother of two young children, her family priorities are to not be working full time at this point in her life so she’s happy to be the second event person for now. At larger events where two photographers are requested, she handles most of the photojournalistic type image making while I concentrate on the romantics & formals.

I have been photographing weddings, as I mentioned earlier, for _____ years. Can you fill in the blank? Just checking to see if you're paying attention! It's 18 years!

I'll be at your wedding until you and your husband (how exciting - your "husband!") have nothing else for me to do. I’ll NEVER leave your wedding without checking with you first!

SECRET #2: Announcing The Single Most Important 'Secret' You MUST Know About Weddings!
Here's a really big "secret" that almost no brides think about when interviewing a potential photographer: What's their guarantee? What happens if you aren't happy with the photography, or the way you and your friends were treated, or if the photographer left your wedding before he was supposed to, etc.

This is of the utmost importance! The guarantee tells you just how committed they are going to be in taking good care of you, and doing a great job.

And, just so you know, here's our IRON CLAD, 100% MONEY BACK GUARANTEE:
You will LOVE (not just be 'satisfied' with) how we represented you and your family at your wedding, and will also LOVE your photographs, or we will do whatever necessary to have you LOVE them, or we will return ALL YOUR MONEY. Period. Just tell us when you first view your wedding images, either at the studio or on line, if you're disappointed in any way, and we'll make it right!  We want you to LOVE everything we do for you!

You see, we understand that you can't do this over again. This is a "one-time-thing" and everything MUST be perfect! You have our guarantee that we'll take really good care of you!

SECRET #3: An Important Warning: Miss This Secret, And A Disaster Could Happen At Your Wedding!

This seems so obvious, and yet brides miss this one all the time, and pay a BIG PRICE for it after their wedding! Be sure the photographer has lots of happy brides and grooms, who have written him and told him how happy they were with him and his work! We're talking TESTIMONIALS here! From real people, with their full names, and their city and state, so you can call them if you want to, just to "check them out" and make sure that they really said what the photographer says they said. (That's a hard sentence to read, but you get the point!)

I'm sorry to be so skeptical, but we live in a time in history when you have to be really careful to be certain that people are telling you the truth.

You will notice that throughout this web page are photographs and testimonials from some of the brides and grooms whom we have been honored to work with on their wedding day. Also notice that their FULL names, city and state are listed, so, if you really wanted to, you could look them up in the phone book, and call them.

“We just love the photographs Paul created for us, they’re exactly what we wanted! He did a superb job of finding and using great locations with gorgeous backgrounds and lighting for our portraits.  Trust him, he knows where to go! And he kept us on schedule making our day flow smoothly so we could truly enjoy it.” Ian & Julie Williams, Mira Loma, CA

SECRET #4: A Magic Way To Have A Great Wedding.

One of the things that you really want to look for in your photographer, is someone who is an EMOTIONAL STORY TELLER! An artistic photographer whose images combine to tell the EMOTIONAL STORY of your family, your friends, and your wedding day. This is really important, if you are looking for photographs which will be PRICELESS to you for years and years to come!

And here's why this is so important! If an artist is an EMOTIONAL STORY TELLER, there's a really good chance that they will be compassionate about not ruining the romance, beauty and emotions of your day. You see, only a true romantic can truly understand how important this day is to you, and how perfectly you want it to go.

And a true romantic will be sensitive to NOT INTERFERING WITH THE EMOTIONAL ROMANTIC FLOW OF YOUR DAY!

I could tell you so many horror stories here that I’ve heard over the years about rude, insensitive photographers who have ruined the loving, romantic atmosphere of the wedding. I’ve heard of others who have acted like an egotistical director of a movie set and everyone else were “extras” to be bossed around. (In my opinion, people with attitudes and personalities like that should not be in the wedding business at all!!)

But my purpose here is not to scare you about these possibilities, but rather to help you be sensitive to the all important attitude and personality of photographers you talk to. Are they sincerely interested in helping you have a relaxed, smooth running day that you can really enjoy? Will they take the time to help you plan a nice flow of events so there’s plenty of time to photographically capture the day as it unfolds with all its rich emotion and splendor?

I consider this planning time an integral, critical part of my job with each couple. and is the key factor in having a relaxed, smooth running event. I love to catch the romance, fun and close relationships of your families. But I can’t do that if its not happening because of the stress and rush that results from a lack of planning. So you see, I have a BIG incentive to help you in any way I can because it will help me to do a much better job of creating outstanding photographs for you!

SECRET #5: The Truth About Wedding Photographers Revealed. What They Don't Want Me To Tell You!
It is not my intention to say anything bad about any other photographers in the area. I know most of them personally, and count many of them as my friends. However, it is really important that I alert you, in this website to some of the problems that you otherwise would never know about.

Well, here's a "biggie."
Most photographers will cram as many weddings into a day as they humanly can. Many times, this means they must rush from your wedding, to get to another, and then rush from that one to even a third event.

This type of photographer just isn't going to be able to capture the EMOTIONS, ROMANCE, LOVE AND RELATIONSHIPS between you and your husband (doesn't that sound exciting?! Your "husband!") and also between you and your family and friends. They just won't have the sensitivity and enthusiasm and love for what he does to be able to capture those feelings. And he won't have the time or energy.

By the way, I ONLY photograph ONE wedding per day.
You’ll have me for as long as we determine you will need me. I understand how important this day is to you, and you‘ll be my #1 priority for that day!

This also means that I'm rested, energetic and enthusiastic about what I will be doing for you. As I mentioned earlier, I photograph weddings because I LOVE them. And since I only photograph one wedding a day, I'm not tired or burned out on your important day.

"We wanted to avoid the cookie-cutter look in our wedding photographs that we saw in other studios. We knew we had found the right photographer when Mr. Bormann told us he limits the number of weddings he photographs each year so he can personalize the photography for each client. We were very impressed with the finished photographs as well as with Mr. Bormann's friendliness and professional manner. We had a large wedding party and things could have been very chaotic. Thankfully, Paul kept everything running smoothly and on time. Everyone compliments us on the beautiful photographs we have of our wedding and says what a great photographer we had. We highly recommend Mr. Bormann to anyone." Tami & Shane Tewis, Loma Linda, CA

A HUGE POINT FOR BRIDES-TO-BE:
The Magic Of "E.F.P." On Your Wedding Day!
You see, I don't really look at it as just "wedding photography," but rather as "Emotional Family Photography created on your wedding day!" It's all the emotions, relationships and personalities of all your friends and relatives, captured in beautiful images for you and your family to cherish for the rest of your lives. After all, isn't that what you really want?

"E.F.P." is one of the major things that separates me from all the other wedding photographers in the area. Victoria and I want to capture the love, relationships, personalities, and emotions of all your family and friends for you to enjoy and view for many years to come!

Aren't The People and The Emotions Of Your Life What Matter The Most To You?

It's the PEOPLE and the EMOTIONS of your life that are so valuable to you. Yes, you'll also see the beautiful dresses and flowers. Yes, you'll see the lovely ceremony, etc. But more, much more than that. You'll feel the emotions that you and your fiancé feel toward each other and toward your best friends and family members on this magical day. Yes, FEEL them each time you view your photographs. That's what I am driven to do for you!

You see, you want photography that "speaks" to you with love, emotion, respect, and the glorious feelings you will experience on your wedding day. You want your photography to "tell the story" of your wedding day, AND your families and friends.

Most photographers just want to "record the event, and go home."
I want you to cry when you see the photographs! Cry tears of happiness, because in those photographs are all the people you and your husband love and care about - showing their real personalities and emotions like you never dreamed they would!

Don't Miss The "Emotional Moments" Of your day because your photographer didn't have the vision to see and capture them in a sensitive, romantic way!

Your day will be filled with beautiful "Emotional Moments" that you will never experience again in your life. Those "Moments" are what I am driven to capture for you.

Here's just a couple examples:

An Amazing And Wonderfully Emotional Way To Express Your Love For Your Dad On Your Wedding Day!

As a father myself, I can assure you that one of the most emotional moments in a dad's life is when he "gives his little girl away" at the beginning of your ceremony. Your dad will never forget it.

But now, there's something full of emotional magic that you can give your dad when he gives you away! At that very powerful moment in his and your life, you hand him a surprise "Father's Pride" that he carries with him back to the pew, and as he reads your personal message to him, and looks at the emotional photograph of you in your wedding gown, he begins to cry with tears of joy and love! He will be so moved and touched! You and he will never forget it!

Don't miss that moment! (Ask for details when we meet.)

The Magic Moment When The Love Of Your Life First Sees You!
Or the incredible moment when your fiancé first sees you in your wedding gown - perfect in every way - with your lovely flowers, the beautiful veil and headpiece - everything which you selected specifically for him - as the tears swell up in his eyes, and he tells you how very much he loves and adores you.

Don't miss that moment!

I could go on and on. Your entire day will be made up of brief, priceless moments like these. Let's make sure first of all that your day is so beautifully organized and planned that these moments truly can happen, and then let's help you to be so stress free, but excited, that you can enjoy and remember these wonderful, magical moments for the rest of your life.

How do we do that?
I'll bet you think I'm going to say that you do this through the photography. Right? Wrong! The way we help these moments happen, and help you remember them, is to help you have a wonderful, romantic and emotional day!

Which brings me to

SECRET #6: How To Be Assured That You Will Be The Most Beautiful Bride Your Friends Or Relatives Have Ever Seen!

You deserve to have a wedding day where you are the most beautiful bride any of your friends or relatives have ever seen. That's the dream of every girl when she begins visualizing her wedding day. And you deserve to have that!

Let's see to it that is exactly what happens! How? Simple. Yes, you will select the perfect dress, headpiece, veil, flowers, shoes, etc.

Yes, you will have your hair and make up done. But it goes much deeper than that.

Beauty is also in the way you FEEL on your wedding day. The way your emotions show on your face, and the way you glow when you walk down the aisle and look in the eyes of the love of your life.

You see, if you, your husband and your family and guests are all having a wonderful time, you will be more beautiful than you have even dreamed you would be. Because there will be no tension there. And, by the way, your photographs will be WONDERFUL, too, because you looked so wonderful and were having such a great time.

The time we spend with you before the wedding planning your day is the critical key to all this. That’s how we make sure there is adequate time planned for the photography and everything else that will be happening. It’s something precious few other photographers are willing to invest the time to do. But we know how vitally important planning is to a wedding day and helping you be relaxed, beautiful and enjoying every moment of your day rather than feeling stressed out & up tight. What ever emotion you are feeling, it will show in your photographs!

See how it all "fits" together to result in a wonderful day, and wonderful photographs? You really can't separate them!

Oh, if you ever talk with a photographer who says this to you, run away as fast as you can!

If he or she says, "Your photographs are all you will have after the wedding is over. Your flowers will be dead, your cake will be eaten, etc. - but you'll have your photographs! They are the most important thing about your wedding!" - then he's NOT the photographer for you!

Why not? Because if he says that, he has a completely false impression of his importance, and will try to run your day and take charge! Don't let that happen! Because the photographs ARE NOT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING - the romance, emotions and relationships are the most important thing!

In my humble opinion, the tender fabric of your life is sewn together with beautiful, emotional moments between you and your loved ones, and I want to capture and express all those wonderful moments for you in your wedding volumes - and accomplish this without interfering with the emotions and romance of your wedding day.
