Wedding Photography

Wedding Photography

My wedding photography packages begin at $4,500 for coverage-only, while more all-inclusive collections begin at $6,000. Most options include an engagement session because it allows us to get to know one another a little better and to develop a rhythm and a rapport before your wedding day.  It also produces a beautiful set of images to share with friends and family.

While selecting and editing your images, I personally bring each selected image to it’s fullest potential before delivering a full copy of final digital images from your wedding day. I will deliver a 20 image preview within a week of your wedding day to share with friends and family and to whet your appetite while I finish the rest of your images.  It’s not fair to wait any longer hard to see some images from your wedding day!

Creating exceptional, artistic and evocative images is the most important consideration when hiring a photographer. Though in my experience it is equally important to hire a photographer with whom you are able to connect on a personal level. This will leave you as well as your guests and attendants overjoyed with the experience. Here is a link to reviews from previous couples who have had exactly this experience with me as their photographer. Reviews of Kiel Rucker Photography

Elopement Photography

Elopements have become some of my favorite sessions to photograph. Simply because you’ve chosen to elope doesn’t mean you have to sacrifice a beautiful, intimate, and well executed celebration to relive the experience for years to come. My elopement photography options can be as simple as day of coverage for a couple of hours, or as comprehensive as full-day coverage with international travel, fine art albums and print collections and much more –  it’s entirely up to you.  See sample elopements here, here and here…

Professional Portrait Photography

Portraiture & Professional Retouching

I met Anthony almost 10 years ago when we were both just beginning to pursue photography professionally. While my work led me to Santa Barbara focused wedding photography, Anthony’s focus has been on portraiture, learning and mastering the implements of retouching while apprenticing with who might be the most accomplished photographic retoucher in the world, Robb Carr. In addition to seeing and rendering incredibly gifted, yet honest, images of of his clients, Robb is also likely one of the most articulate individuals I’ve heard speak, so I’ll let his words complete this introduction to Anthony Horvath:

“Anthony Horvath’s uncompromising approach to portraiture captures the laid-back spontaneity of our 21st-century culture. Artful, yet never allowing the art to upstage the range of his assignment or eclipse the spirit of his subject, Anthony’s work evokes a sense of harmonious personal exuberance. With an eye for flattering beauty and a knack for connecting with people of all ages, his subjects appear self-possessed, lustrous.”

Your Investment

Wedding photography is an investment that deserves good attention when planning your wedding.  I am happy to help you get a better understand the value and cost of wedding photography these days.  Please click here with any questions at all. I have been photographing weddings in Santa Barbara for eight years. During this time I have developed strong relationships with top local wedding professionals in the area.  If you would like and suggestion or recommendations I would be happy to refer you to some of my favorites. Custom collections can be created upon request. Simply let me know what you would like to include I will work to create a personalized estimate for you as quickly as I can.

Santa Barbara is a highly popular wedding destination.  For this reason couples typically book 12-18 months in advance to ensure their first-choice photographer. I recommend submitting an inquiry as soon as you can to check for availability. Whenever possible I take part in venue walk-throughs. Together we will ensure a smooth and flowing wedding photography experience for you and your families.

If you have different budget in mind for your photography, I highly recommend taking a look at Head & Heart Photography. Head & Heart photographers have options ranging from very basic to complete beginning at a lower price point than my own.
