- What is your photography style? Can you describe it in a few words?
My photography style can be described as a blend of documentary and candid. I strive to capture genuine emotions and candid moments while also adding a touch of creativity and artistic flair to produce stunning and timeless images that you'll cherish for generations.
What does your wedding photography package include? Are there different packages to choose from?
I offer various wedding photography packages that cater to different needs and budgets. Each package typically includes a pre-wedding consultation, a specific number of hours of coverage on the wedding day, a second shooter or assistant, a beautifully edited collection of high-resolution digital images, and an online gallery for easy viewing and sharing.
Can you provide a breakdown of the pricing and any additional costs we should be aware of?
Certainly! I provide transparent pricing, and the breakdown of costs will depend on the package you choose and any additional services you may request, such as engagement sessions, albums, or prints. I'm happy to provide a detailed pricing guide that covers all the specifics.
How many hours of coverage do you typically provide? Can we extend the coverage if needed?
My wedding photography packages generally include a specific number of hours of coverage, typically ranging from 6 to 10 hours. However, I understand that every wedding is unique, and additional hours can be added to the package to ensure that all the important moments are captured. We can discuss your specific needs and tailor the coverage accordingly.
Will you be the primary photographer on our wedding day? If not, can we meet the photographer who will be?
Yes, I will personally be the primary photographer on your wedding day. If a second shooter or assistant is included in your package, I will introduce them to you ahead of time, ensuring a seamless and coordinated photography experience.
Do you have any sample wedding albums or online galleries we can view to see your work?
Absolutely! I have a diverse portfolio showcasing my previous wedding photography work. I can provide you with both online galleries and physical sample albums, so you can get a comprehensive sense of my style, composition, and attention to detail.
How far in advance should we book you for our wedding day?
To secure your wedding date, it is advisable to book as soon as possible. Popular dates tend to fill up quickly, so I recommend reaching out at least 6 to 12 months in advance. However, don't hesitate to contact me even if your wedding date is just around the corner. I'll do my best to accommodate your needs.
Are you familiar with our wedding venue? Have you shot there before?
If I have previously shot at your wedding venue, I will gladly share examples of my work from that location. However, even if I haven't photographed at your specific venue, I am experienced in adapting to new environments quickly and creatively. I always visit new venues ahead of time to scout locations and ensure that I'm fully prepared on your wedding day.
Do you have backup equipment in case of technical issues?
Absolutely! I understand the importance of being fully prepared for any situation. I have a comprehensive set of professional-grade camera gear, including backup cameras, lenses, memory cards, and batteries. This ensures that I can continue capturing stunning images, even in the unlikely event of technical issues.
Can we request specific shots or provide you with a shot list?
Absolutely! I encourage you to share any specific shots or ideas you have in mind. Your wedding day is unique, and I want to capture the moments that are most important to you. Prior to the wedding, we can discuss your shot list to ensure that we don't miss any specific moments or details that are meaningful to you.
What is your approach to capturing candid moments versus posed shots?
I believe in capturing the full spectrum of your wedding day, from spontaneous candid moments to beautifully posed shots. During the day, I aim to blend into the background, allowing the genuine emotions and interactions to unfold naturally. However, I also provide gentle guidance for poses and compositions during couple portraits and group shots, ensuring that everyone looks their best while still maintaining an authentic feel.
How long does it typically take to receive the final edited photos?
The turnaround time for delivering the final edited photos varies depending on the season and the scope of the project. However, as a general guideline, you can expect to receive your fully edited images within 4 to 8 weeks after your wedding day. Rest assured that I prioritize quality and attention to detail during the editing process to deliver images that truly reflect the essence of your wedding.
Are engagement sessions included in your packages? If not, can we add one?
Engagement sessions can be included in certain packages or added as an additional service. They are a wonderful opportunity for us to get to know each other better, create beautiful images in a more relaxed setting, and capture the excitement leading up to your big day. Let me know if you're interested, and we can discuss the best options for you.
Are you open to traveling for destination weddings? Is there an additional fee for that?
Absolutely! I love destination weddings and adventures! I am available for travel both within the country and internationally. Destination weddings have a separate pricing structure to accommodate travel and accommodation expenses. We can discuss the specifics based on your destination and the scope of the project.
Do you have liability insurance?
Yes, I have liability insurance, which provides coverage and peace of mind for both myself and my clients. If your wedding venue requires a certificate of insurance, I can provide that upon request.
Can you assist with any post-production services like album design or prints?
Definitely! I offer additional services such as custom album design, fine art prints, and other print products to help you preserve and showcase your cherished memories in tangible and beautiful ways. We can discuss these options and create personalized keepsakes that will stand the test of time.
How do you handle inclement weather or unexpected circumstances on the wedding day?
As a professional, I am prepared to handle various situations that may arise on your wedding day, including inclement weather. I always bring necessary equipment and backup plans to ensure that we can still capture stunning images, regardless of the circumstances. In the case of unexpected circumstances, I maintain open communication with you and adapt accordingly to minimize any disruptions.
What is your cancellation or rescheduling policy?
I understand that unforeseen circumstances may arise, and I am committed to working with you to find the best solution. If you need to cancel or reschedule your wedding, please let me know as soon as possible, and we can discuss the options available. I have flexible policies in place to accommodate changes, but it is best to refer to our contract for specific details.
Can you provide references or testimonials from past clients?
Absolutely! I would be delighted to provide references or share testimonials from previous clients. Their firsthand experiences can give you valuable insights into what it's like to work with me and the level of service and quality you can expect.
How do we secure our wedding date with you?
To secure your wedding date, a signed contract and a retainer fee are required. Once these are received, your date will be reserved exclusively for you, and we can officially start the exciting journey of planning and capturing your special day!
