Question 1

Do you work with assistants or other photographers?

Accepted Answer

Sometimes, I’ll bring one or more assistant photographers depending on the size of your wedding. Don’t worry, this won’t cost you extra. I never outsource or subcontract photographers

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 also offer retouching services. Retouching is considered the final step in our process, unless specified otherwise.

Question 3

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

Accepted Answer

Typically, couples book me about 13 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 4

Do you also offer video services?

Accepted Answer

Yes. I am a photographer, but I work with a videographer who I often team up with. He, like me, is detail oriented and artistic and we work well together.

Question 5

How long will it take to see our pictures?

Accepted Answer

You’ll be able to view your photos online no more than 4 weeks after your wedding. Within this time, you can also expect to receive a USB drive with high-resolution image files, so you can share the photos with your loved ones and order prints.

Question 6

How many pictures will we get?

Accepted Answer

You can expect about 80 to 100 images per hour of photographing. But keep in mind this estimate varies depending on your wedding package, number of guests, venue type, and other factors.Some photographers use the "spray and pray" method because they're not really sure of what they're doing. I may appear to take fewer pictures than some, only because I don't need four tries to get it right! :)

Question 7

Do you have insurance?

Accepted Answer

I do! Just let me know if your venue requires a certificate of liability, and I’ll send that over to them.

Question 8

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

Accepted Answer

In my 35 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 professional organizations I’m in, so you can find the perfect replacement.
