Justin Kunimoto Photography

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

Typically, couples book me about 8-18 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.

Q: Do you shoot with assistants or other photographers?

Typically, I photograph by myself. If you would like another photographer to be there to capture more moments, let me know. I can arrange for another photographer to be there for an extra cost. I have photographed 90% of my weddings by myself.

Q: Will you edit all our pictures?

Definitely! All final images will be edited for color, saturation, exposure, and sharpness to ensure they look beautiful.

Q: How long will it take to see our pictures?

2-3 weeks after the event / wedding. Previews for social media will be sent within 1-2 days of the wedding.

Q: How many pictures will we get?

I deliver about 90 – 120 photos per hour. Based on recent weddings, probably more. But keep in mind this estimate varies depending on your wedding package, number of guests, venue type, and other factors.

Q: Do you have insurance?

Yes, I do have insurance on my equipment. In the event something breaks no one is held liable. My insurance will cover the damages. Also, many venues require a Certificate of Insurance (COI) as proof of insurance to be able to photograph at their venue.

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

In my 10 years of experience, I’ve never cancelled. In the very rare event that I’m unable to shoot your wedding, I’ll make sure you’re covered by another photographer. 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. Any payments that have been made up to that point will be refunded.

Q: Do you do site visits?

Yup – please try to schedule a visit as early as possible – many of my weekends tend to get booked. If you decide a weekday, I thank you in advance!!! During the site visit, we usually go over rain plans, Plan B’s, and walkthrough the agenda of the wedding day while touring the venue. It’s super helpful for me.

Q: Can we see a full gallery of photos from a wedding?

Sure thing! Just let me know and I can send a few galleries depending on your type of wedding and location.

Q: Do you mind if guests take photos?

Nope! They are your friends and family! Whatever you say is a go! An unplugged wedding isn’t always necessary, but I do appreciate it when there isn’t a large iPad being thrown up during the ceremony 😛

About Justin Kunimoto Photography

Justin Kunimoto Photography

Photographer

First and foremost, congratulations! This is an exciting time! Before I begin with all the details, I would like to do away with the formalities and keep it light. Technically speaking, I’m a photographer, but honestly, since establishing my business in 2014, I would consider myself a teammate through this process. I’ve really enjoyed getting to know couples, their families, their stories, and at the end of the day, becoming a good friend. If this vibes with you, we are off to a good start :) Answering questions, transparency in communication, and prompt responses are important to me and I hope that everything I share resonates.

I’m very active on social media so feel free to reach out to me. I mainly post wedding photos, travel photos, or silly videos. While I am a wedding photographer, I think all of that encompasses a lot of my personality and what I want to bring to the table for your wedding. For weddings, I put myself in your shoes. I am here to listen, accommodate, and be flexible with plans. Most weddings run a little bit delayed; a 5-15 minute delay does not change the way I run my business. In the end, if you are happy, I am happy and, truly, that is all that matters to me.

Amazing Photographer & person

Justin was our photographer for our wedding in August 2024. Not only is he incredibly talented, he is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. We were so taken aback by how wonderfully energetic, funny and knowledgeable he was. Our families and even some guests came up to us throughout the night to tell us how amazing he was. He brought such a wonderful energy to our special day and it was so appreciated. We also just got our pictures back and they are incredible. I can't recommend Justin enough.

Justin was amazing to work with from beginning to end. He was responsive to our emails and was quick to set up a virtual meeting so that we could both meet and get to know each other. We could tell he understood our vision from the get go. During our micro wedding photoshoot, he arrived early and did a full scan of the location to make sure we got the most optimal lighting and angle. This was the first time my husband and I ever took photos together so Justin's jokes and guidance really helped us. He made us feel so comfortable during the photoshoot which showed in the final results; we have so many candid photos that we love! I would totally recommend him to anyone that is looking for a hard working and fun photographer!

Julie! Thank you so much! Appreciate all your lovely e-mails through our correspondence! I'm so glad the weather held out for us! But truly, regardless, it would have been beautiful as you two were GLOWING~!!! Appreciate the review and I appreciate you two!! BEST FORMAL PHOTO SURPRISE EVER ;D
10/10 - would recommend to any couple!

Justin was an amazing photographer for our elopement (just the 2 of us)! We zoom chatted with him before booking him, and we loved his vibe immediately and knew we would be comfortable in his presence to fully express all of the romantic, intimate, and silly parts of our relationship. He did a fantastic job with the details, including flagging 5 days in advance that our elopement date would be rained out, so that we were able to immediately reschedule for 2 days later. He expertly laid out the train of my dress, helped me fix my hair, etc. and also touched up the photos afterwards to fix little things. He did a great job guiding us with suggested poses while also capturing our spontaneous candid moments. It was a very fun and relaxing photography session, and the photos turned out amazing -- perfect lighting, composition, etc. 10/10 would recommend him to all couples!

Elizabeth! You two were perfect!!! I'm so happy you two were able to celebrate in a special way for yourselves! Thank you for being flexible with the weather; I'm glad the day brought a beautiful sunset! Now I must proceed to bring a Thumper to every wedding to bring the good vibes LOL
Truly stunning work

Wow, we have been blown away by Justin. He did a beautiful engagement shoot for us. His work is incredibly fairly priced, and is truly a steal for the quality and quantity of photos you get. He was prompt at responding to me, getting me his information, and booking our shoot. At the photo shoot, he made us feel so comfortable and like we are the most photogenic people, despite any nerves we may have had. We got previews in less than 24 hours and our full gallery in 2.5 weeks. The photos are gorgeous. It was hard to pick which ones we want to post and which ones we want to use for invitations because they’re literally all SO good! 10/10 would recommend Justin for your photography needs!!

Absolutely! I think family formals are one of the most important photos of a wedding. These are the photos that will last generations so it is vital these be taken.
