Wedding photography is one of the most important investments you'll make for your special day. But let's be real, most of us don't have a background in photography and picking the right fit for your big day can be overwhelming...
That's why I believe in the power of personal connection before anything else.
So, why not take a break from the wedding planning madness and let's chat over a cup of tea or coffee? Let's get to know each other, discuss your expectations, and dial in your vision. Only then can I offer you a tailored solution to best suit your needs.
And to give you a head start, I'd like to introduce you to my Essential and Premium packages. Both are designed to capture all the love, laughter, and memories of your big day. And if you're looking for something extra special, I also offer videography services! Just scroll down a bit more for more information. Let's bring your vision to life together!
Are you on a budget or photography is not a major concern, but still want to tick the box? No worries, I've got you covered!
Do you want it all? I'll go over and beyond while providing you a selection of my best products in a convenient package.
Say hello to your one-stop-shop for capturing all the magic of your big day! I've teamed up with my talented videographer friend, Daryn, to bring you the ultimate peace of mind and the most comprehensive coverage. With our divided and conquer approach, I'll be capturing every special moment with my camera, while Daryn records the story as it unfolds before us. And the best part? We're both masters of our craft, with our own equipment and vehicles, providing an extra layer of security so you can relax and enjoy the day to the fullest. Trust us to preserve your memories in stunning photos and videos that you'll treasure forever!
* A so called client proofing is available in the Online Gallery, where you can easily select your favorites and order them in prints, canvases, albums, gifts, etc.
** Non-refundable and no change or credit given in the event that the coupon value exceeds the total cost of the order.
*** It goes without saying that this is a lifetime of business offer for my returning clients. Nobody can see into the future, so I can only grant discounts for future shoots as long as I stay in business. :)
Can we schedule an initial consultation before making a decision?
Absolutely! Establishing a connection with me as your photographer is crucial to ensure a smooth and seamless experience. I'd be happy to arrange a personal meeting at a time and place that works best for you. This initial chat is completely obligation-free and is simply an opportunity for us to get to know each other and see if we're a good fit. I understand that choosing a wedding photographer is a big decision, and I'm here to support you every step of the way, without any pressure.
Engagement Shoot?
An engagement shoot is a fantastic way to get to know your photographer and build rapport before your big day. It provides you with an opportunity to get comfortable in front of the camera in a low-pressure and relaxed environment. This shoot can help you feel more confident and at ease on your wedding day, and it's also a great opportunity to capture some beautiful memories before the main event. Check out my blog '5 Reasons You Need an Engagement Shoot' to learn more!
How many pictures do you make?
On an average wedding day, I usually deliver 400+ images. However, the number of images may vary based on the duration of coverage. In case there's a second shooter, the number of images could increase by a few hundred. During an engagement shoot, you can expect around 100 images.
While the number of images is important, quality should be the primary focus. Most clients only use 80-120 images for their wedding albums. The focus should always be on capturing the most meaningful and beautiful moments, rather than the quantity of images.
Do you do the formal group photos?
Yes, I am happy to do the formal group photos. Capturing all the special moments of your day is my priority, including the formal group shots if you so desire. While my style is mostly documentary-focused, I believe that a mix of formal portraits and candid shots creates a well-rounded and comprehensive record of your day. Just keep in mind that these group shots can take up some time, so it's important to plan accordingly in your schedule.
How long does it take to receive the photos?
With today's fast-paced world, we often expect immediate results, especially when it comes to sharing our special moments on social media. I understand this desire and aim to deliver some sneak peek photos as soon as possible.
Want to know more?
However, it takes me approximately 4-6 weeks to fully edit and
deliver all the final high-resolution images from your wedding day. This
allows me to carefully and thoughtfully curate the best images to tell
the story of your special day.
How far in advance should we book you?
To secure your desired wedding photographer, it's recommended to book as soon as you have your wedding date and venue confirmed. Many couples book their photographer a year in advance, or even two years in advance, to ensure that they get the right person to capture their special day. If you feel that I am the right fit for you, don't hesitate to reach out and secure your date!
Are travel expenses included in your pricing?
Yes, travel within 50 miles from the SP2 area is included in my standard prices. However, for locations further away, additional travel costs will apply and will depend on the distance and time required to reach the venue. Please let me know your wedding location and I'll be happy to provide you with an accurate estimate.
What is your payment process?
To secure my services and ensure your wedding date is reserved, a 30% deposit of the total fee is required. The remaining balance is due one month before the wedding. Invoices and balance statements will be provided for all payments made. Please note that the deposit is non-refundable.
For destination weddings, additional travel and accommodation costs may be required, in addition to the deposit, as applicable.
Payments can be made through bank transfer, PayPal transfer, or cash.
Can you do both photography and videography on our wedding?
Yes, we do offer a Combo Package that includes both photography and videography services for your wedding. In this package, I work in partnership with Daryn, who specializes in videography. This allows us to provide you with both photography and videography services without sacrificing quality.
While it is technically possible for one person to do both photography and videography, it requires different skills, equipment, and mindsets. Switching back and forth between the two jobs can lead to missed candid moments, as well as an increased risk of not being in the right "zone" for each task. That's why it's always best to have dedicated professionals handle each task, to ensure the best results.
Can you provide a second shooter?
My man Daryn would happily jump in and shoot some photos too, for a change. Probably. :)
Please enquire for availability!
Can we book you for half day or for a few hours?
