Simply Elegant Photo - Green Photography
How does Simply Elegant Photo provide Green Wedding Photography for eco-friendly brides and grooms?
We'll show you how to contribute to a greener environment, by purchasing our ECO wedding package but first a few words ...
First, we strive to continuously improve our health, safety, and environmental performances. By changing our approach to the environment, the products and vendors we use, we take environmental stewardship a step further. Our goal is to improve the environment by using recycled materials in album creation and presentation along with the use of digital presentation frames. We providing sustainability by using rechargeable batteries and in 2010 we have switched our computing and presentation equipment to Apple products because their green environmental policies and transparent practices. 
Second, recycling our wedding photography products has been one of our first goals and the
most readily available option when we began our green wedding photography. Nowadays we are
partnering with Canon in use of their products because they have an environmental and production
policy such as Energy Star and recycling programs for ink, toner and consumer hardware.

Third, we have stopped, a few years ago, the use of batteries containing mercury and have switched to a rechargeable product that do not contain components that can result in the release of harmful vapors or gases. Rechargeable batteries have a longer life than alkaline batteries and the potential to reach a few hundred charges during their lifetime. There are state recycling programs that we take advantage of, as well as vendor offered exchange programs we participate in.
Fourth, we're continuously working to reduce the energy and CO2 impact involved in our transportation and finished products wherever possible. We're using public transportation whenever possible and thanks to a wonderful city like Chicago the choices are plenty. We are currently using low emission vehicles LEV for all our transportation needs
Together we're committed to minimize our environmental impact while providing a sustainable alternative, through our product offering, transportaion and equipment usage while keeping to strict standards of environmental responsibility
