Question 1

How far in advance should we book you for our wedding?

Accepted Answer

Typically, couples book me about 12 months before their wedding date. I encourage you to reach out as soon as possible about my availability, even if you’re planning on a shorter time frame.

Question 2

Will you edit all our pictures?

Accepted Answer

Definitely. All final images will be edited for color, saturation, exposure, and sharpness to ensure they look beautiful. I typically have over 1000 picture for a typical wedding. All pictures will be edited.

Question 3

Do you also offer video services?

Accepted Answer

Yes, I have drone videography as a supplement. I'm a FAA certified drone pilot.

Question 4

How many pictures will we get?

Accepted Answer

I generally have over 1000 pictures for a typical wedding.

Question 5

Do you have insurance?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Professional wedding photographers should have the proper insurance for their business. If a wedding photographer does not have insurance, chances are he is new to the industry or not taking his business seriously.

Question 6

What’s your back-up plan if you can’t photograph our wedding as planned?

Accepted Answer

In my 17 years of experience as a wedding photographer, I’ve never cancelled a booking. In the very rare event that I’m unable to photograph your wedding, I’ll make sure you’re covered by one of my colleagues or my contracted assistant. I’ll also provide you with a list of photographers from the many networking groups I’m in, so you can find the perfect replacement.

Question 7

Do you shoot natural light, artificial light or both?

Accepted Answer

Both. This is such an important question because it will really determine how flexible and experienced a photographer is while shooting your wedding. Since the lighting at wedding venues can change unpredictably, from harsh midday sun to dim candle lights, you would want a photographer who shoots both natural and artificial lighting. Choosing one or the other is like a Carpenter saying he only uses a hammer or a saw for the job. Different lights are just different tools. I use them all to get the job done right and beautifully.

Question 8

Why it’s important to hire a seasoned professional wedding photographer? Tell me one thing that sets you apart?

Accepted Answer

Wedding photography has no second chance. To make sure you get beautiful wedding photos, you'll want to hire someone who has lots of experience and knows how to get those shots under pressure, someone who is a seasoned professional with the technical expertise and styles you like, someone who truly cares about what you want to achieve with your wedding photography. Wedding photography is our passion and not just a job. What sets me apart is my ability to make my clients feel relaxed and comfortable in front of my camera. This is the overwhelming feedback I received from my brides and grooms.

Question 9

How do you get to know us as a couple before the wedding?

Accepted Answer

Ahh, let’s start with some coffee and talk about your wedding plan and goals. We will also work together in a real photography session like your engagement session. Of course, we will also communicate through email/text/call as often as you need.

Question 10

What is your wedding photography style?

Accepted Answer

Although since 2006 I've photographed and am very experienced in many different styles, I do what you like and not what I want. Photojournalism with a relaxed, fun and natural approach has been our clients’ favorite.

Question 11

How do you make us feel relaxed in front of the camera and help us prepare for our big day?

Accepted Answer

One of the best ways is to work closely together in a real photography session like your engagement session. I have worked well with brides and grooms with different personalities and preferences, and I guarantee to create beautiful images for you while you enjoy the process! One of the overwhelming feedbacks I get from my clients is “You made us feel so relaxed and comfortable!” This is imperatively important because only when you feel relaxed and comfortable can you show your genuine emotions and true beauty in your photos. Couples repeatedly told me at or soon after the engagement session that I made them feel like a million bucks!

Question 12

How do you describe your wedding day approach?

Accepted Answer

Your wedding is your show! I'm honored to be there to capture your special moments. My approach is both interactive and discreet. I shoot in an unobtrusive manner and remains in the background for the majority of the day. There will be moments when you shouldn’t even know that I’m there, such as the ceremony, during dances and toasts, etc. There will also be parts of the wedding day when I will need to be in control in order to accomplish your goals while staying on schedule. I’m very comfortable directing a large group such as during family portraits. I work well under pressure and remain calm should the unexpected happen.

Question 13

Will the pictures be edited and will we receive a copyright release?

Accepted Answer

Yes, ALL pictures will be retouched. You will receive all high resolution finished digital images with a copyright release to allow you to print your own pictures and share them on social media without any extra cost to you. I typically deliver over 1000 pictures for a wedding.

Question 14

Will you help us with our wedding day timeline?

Accepted Answer

Yes, I will be happy to and have always done that for other couples. This is such a great question yet very few asked! A good photographer should help plan the photo aspect of the day to make sure everything flows smoothly. The last thing you want to do is to be rushed on your wedding day. A seasoned photographer should also point out various things that can come up that you wouldn’t think about during planning the timeline for your wedding day. A great photographer should also know when the best light is, and schedule your photos during “golden hour lighting” if possible.
