               Custom locations or your choice for that special Portrait.  Olgebay Park is a popular site selected for many Wedding Portraits.  Below is a setting in our Indoor Studio.    

            

    I visited one Photoraphy site and their packages were anywhere from $4,000 TO $7,000 Dollars?  We can't afford that.

    Chap's Photography offers you the choice to select the photos or packages, the quality of your photos is not determined on the price you pay, only the amount of photos we may offer that you want. We understand the cost of a wedding and just plain and simple ordinary living today so our prices are of great value to those who are just starting out.  We do require a written agreement or contract for our services which we provide, but also work with you in your special needs.

     No matter what you select for that special day, all our work is done in the same quality for that once in a lifetime moment.  We take it as a honor to serve you and your needs.  Founded on the principles of service to others, The Holbert Family is synonymous in value, quality and trust.
