Services
Our engagement sessions usually take 45 minutes to an hour; we capture a large number of images that can be used for newspaper announcements, save-the-date cards and one of our Engagement Guestbooks. These images can also be used in the final wedding album. Childers Photography has a commercial printing division which means that our wedding couples have access to some of the best custom designed save-the-date cards.
Your wedding photography is the only item created on the wedding day that will last for generations and you should be proud to share them with family and friends. Only by visiting the studio and viewing actual examples of the images and the albums can you be sure that you are making the correct choice for your precious memories.
We have several very economical plans that allows the couple to decide their needs and budget. If the wedding is on a day other than Saturday, we have special pricing and discounts. For "weekday" weddings, we can negotiate a price that should suit your budget. We are Digital Specialists. You will have the best of the latest technology and the most modern and creative ideas possible.
We will give you a 20% discount off your invitations regardless of whom you choose to do your photography (i.e., we do NOT have to be your photographer for the discount to apply). But you will actually get a larger discount if you hire us to do your photography. We do not use discount "layers" (i.e., different discounts on each item), you will get 20% off everything not just certain items.
Following is a list of Disc Jockeys that we have actually worked with over the years. These names did not come from a phone book, we have actually work with each one many times. They all do a great job or they would not be listed. All DJ's have a particular style and collection of music. It is up to you to ensure that any particular DJ will suit your needs, play the type of music that you desire, and will follow your wishes.

All of the above!
Childers photographed my parents wedding and we were quick to book them for mine. They are knowledgeable and experienced but are up to date on all the latest trends in photography.
They were so easy to work with and kept us on schedule while maintaining all the fun!
Book them for anything.

We used Childers for our Engagement and Wedding photos. We are so impressed with the quality of their work. Chuck and Mary are a delight to work with. We got so many compliments on how amazing our photographers were and all the great moments they captured. I can't wait to have them take more pictures for our next special occasion.

AMAZING! Mary and Chuck are the greatest people to work with. They make everything fun. For two people who hate taking photos they actually made me look forward to taking them. I am absolutely in love with what they were able to do with many last minute changes. They braved the cold to take beautiful pictures and did it with a smile. I plan to never use another photographer in my life if I can help it

We hired Childers Photography for our wedding. From beginning to end, they were outstanding to work with. We met with Chuck at the beginning to discuss packages and options, and we felt very comfortable asking him questions about how the wedding day would go and what to expect afterwards. Although Chuck didn't end up being our photographer, Mary and her team were just as outstanding!
Mary was awesome on the day of our wedding helping us get positioned and coming up with great ideas for shots, and her assistant photographer was out capturing all the little details. It was wonderful having photographers

We looked at 4 different options for photography for our June wedding. As the mother of the bride, I was responsible for finding the best. Childers was by far the best suited to handle our needs and wants. Chuck and his staff, specifically Mary, anticipated our needs and then some. Mary's attention to every detail regarding my daughter, the bride, was impressive and seemed to take some of the pressure off of me when it came to making sure the bride was picture perfect. They were timely and stayed on task the entire day. We had several meetings prior to the big day and I always left satisfied. I

Growing up in Dayton, I had always admired the work from Childers Photography, and was thrilled when I realized they fit within our wedding budget. Worth every penny!! Chuck, Mary, Chris, Sarah and others at Childers have been professional, kind, courteous, patient, fair, honest with feedback and downright fun to work with over the last year! From designing creative, unique photos to patiently handling my stresses of the wedding day after I was running behind schedule (I hate being late!!), I know why they’ve been in business for over 20 years! Mary took extra steps to recreate some shots from

I am more mature than to make ad hominem attacks on a person, as you accuse me of doing. Rather, I review the service that was supposed to be provided. Seeing that you take my critical review to automatically mean that I "hate you...and want to hurt you personally" is evidence to the point in my earlier review about your ego issues.
My review is for your work and for the pictures and I stand by it completely. If you honestly look at those photos as a whole and think they are good, that speaks volumes about your typical product. There were a few (less than 10) good ones out of hundreds

Childers Photography is absolutely FANTASTIC!
When I got married I thought that I could hire one of those photographers that cost only $1300 and get the digital files. I made a big mistake. My sister, because my experience was so bad, hired Childers Photography.
As the Maid of Honor, I witnessed firsthand why so many people recommend Childers. The care and attention to detail was amazing. My sister opted to get an album and the digital files. Her album and prints that she ordered are great; she could not be happier.
Our brother had been deployed with the Army so he could not be at the wedding
