The Artistic Difference

There is an art to photography and my fingerprint will be within every file I edit. No shortcuts. Passion for your work makes all the difference among photographers. I believe your love story can become art and should live forever.

My name is Jim Rode. My team and I create beautiful photography of your engagement and wedding. Each image will be lightly retouched and enhanced. I roam the wedding capturing fabulous moments. Many images are taken to the "darkroom" where the photographs are given my sensational fine-art treatment. My team of photographers and myself serve the greater Dallas and DFW area. I can travel nationwide for destination weddings.

Your wedding, my art. In love and art, you live forever. Jim Rode

Joleen and Kenneth are off to DisneyWorld! They hit the trail right after the wedding...I mean right after...well, they did dance, toast and cake, but they couldn't wait to hit the road. Their first stop, Mobile -about a 9 hour drive! Just think of the gas bill! But, if you get to relax in Mickeyland...you will soon forget your gasoline bill.
Here are a few images. 

And I might as well point out that you'll see what I'm doing the week after the wedding. I'm taking the images and enhancing them in various ways...sharpening, vignetting, bringing out the color, adjusting the exposure etc. You'll notice I don't always choose to put the subjects right in the middle of the image... you'll see Kenneth and Joleen dancing with some best friends watching. That's a far more interesting image than 10 shots of just the two of them right smack in the center of the image. It sets the scene. 

The other shot is of the "boys" stopping at Albertson's before the wedding. It's tweaked too. And don't email me and say your photographer gave you the cd right after the wedding. The weekend photographer (who's got a job someplace during the week) has to give you that cd and be done...after all, he's got to go back to work Monday. You get what you pay for.
