BrightStar Photography specializes in weddings, commercial, and sports photography. Daren Whitaker is the sole photographer for the company; all photographs shown on the website and during client meetings are Daren's work. Below is a brief description of our services.
Weddings
We pride ourselves in offering you the best coverage for your special day with pricing and packages to fit your needs. We offer several ready-made packages, and if these aren't quite what you're looking for then we can create a custom package for you. BrightStar Photography includes online proofing and spiral bound proof sets with all packages. Daren shoots in both traditional and photojournalistic styles, and strives to offer you a mix of both. We also offer black and white, tinting, and sepia at no additional charge, and allow you a wide variety of leather bound albums, coffee table books, and parent albums.
Commercial and Product Shots
BrightStar Photography will also work with you to meet all of your commercial photographic needs. Daren is experienced in shooting people, places, and products, and has published work in a variety of magazines including Southern Lady, Red Hat Lifestyle, Taste of the South, and Cooking with Paula Deen. He has also done commercial work for local Birmingham merchants such as Edgar's Bakery and Periwinkle Press. We can create sharp, professional images for your website, catalogs, or other print publications. Daren shoots with a digital-based camera and offers you a range of digital editing features.
Sports and Portrait
Remember picture-taking day when you were in school? The photographer would come and take a team photo and a shot or two of you posing with the basketball or soccer ball? In fact, most school and sports photographers still shoot this way. Perhaps your daughter is enrolled in a dance class and the individual shot of your child is one-dimensional and uninteresting? Or has the dance studio offered portrait packages for recital night and you've spent a great deal of money only to be disappointed in the pictures? Daren's unique style can capture those special moments that simply cannot be re-created in a studio or with a posed portrait. He will show up at your event, either team sports or individual, dance recitals, etc., and focus on capturing true-to-life images of your child. We recognize that these are special and exciting times in your child's life and strive to photograph them with dimension and realism.
BrightStar Photography can also create family and bride/groom engagement photos that you can be proud of. We are one of the few photography companies that will not charge you extra for on-location portrait sessions; in fact, that's how we prefer to shoot. Nature and the environment can produce some of the most touching portraits. We truly believe that you and your family will photograph best "as you are," in simple, casual clothes and in a simple, natural setting. Want the studio experience? We can create it right in your own home with our professional backgrounds and lighting, in an environment you and your children are comfortable and familiar with.
