Before photography, family memories were kept alive through annual reenactments of the year's best moments, despite Grandpa's continued miscasting as the mischievous puppy. Treasure your memories with today's Groupon: for $1,800, you get an eight-hour premium wedding photography package from Kari Renee Photography (a $3,600 value). Weddings must take place within Oregon or Vancouver, WA, they are shot on-location, and additional locations can be photographed with fees starting at $600. This Groupon is not valid for specific dates.

Drawing upon her extensive education in journalism, graphic design, and advertising, Kari Renee captures endearing moments and transforms them into fine, fashionable works of photographic art. Using a snap-happy selection of Nikon cameras, flashes, and lenses, Kari snaps sentimental shots of spouses-to-be, children, and families, relying most often on the flattering, natural light of the sun or nearby tanning beds. Depending upon your opinion of traditions prohibiting pre-wedding eye contact, Kari will arrange a first-look session in a location that highlights the splendor of the day.

After eight hours of tactful paparazzi coverage, Kari will return to her studio to digitally retouch your frozen memories and return them to you in the form of 25 prints of your choosing and three 30-page press-printed albums. Groupon holders will also have access to a password-protected online gallery, where they can view and order additional images, and a high-resolution, print-ready DVD. Dates must be reserved under the contact link on the website, as cellular transmissions are strictly prohibited north of Nevada.
