Wedding Day - Q&A
How far in advance should we book our Wedding with you?
To secure your wedding date and ensure our availability, it is best to book your wedding as soon as you know your wedding date! We love to work with newly engaged couples and talk through the entire wedding process. Some couples book a year and a half in advance of their wedding but others may book a few months in advance of their wedding day. We have even photographed a wedding with less than a week's notice!
How many hours do you typically Photograph during a wedding?
Most weddings we photograph are 8-10 hours, but we can work with any timeline!
Do you have a second Photographer?
Yes, I have several seasoned photographers that I work with. A second photographer is included in the 8 & 10 hour packages or can be added on to any other package.
How many weddings do you photograph in a weekend?
We typically photograph one wedding per weekend but we have photographed two weddings in two different cities over one weekend!
do you meet with the Bride and groom before the wedding?
Please contact us to schedule a pre-wedding consultation. This can be in person at our studio or over the phone. I also highly encourage an engagement session because we get to work together before the wedding. This is a great opportunity to get to know each other better!
After booking a wedding, how far out do you typically schedule the engagement session?
We often schedule engagement sessions a week or two out; however, this is entirely up to you! If there is a specific season you would like documented we might wait until then to do the engagement pictures. If you need images for save the dates, we are happy to work within your timeline of getting those out to your guests!
Do you create a timeline of the wedding day?
Yes! I love helping create the timeline of their wedding day. We often do this in the consultation session to determine which package is the best fit for you. This has been valuable to past couples because newly engaged couples often don’t know where to start when it comes to wedding planning/timeline planning!
How much are your photography packages and what is included in them?
Our standard wedding packages vary from 4-10 hours. All of the packages include edited, high resolution images on a USB and print rights. Most packages include an engagement session and a second photographer. We also have prints available including large beautiful canvases and metal prints to hang on your wall. On average, couples spend $2500 - $3500 on their wedding day photography packages. For additional details, please contact us!
How does payment work?
$1000 retainer is due at contract signing and applied to the total. We accept cash, check or credit card. The remainder is due 30 days before the wedding.
