Q : What can we do to help you get the best photographs for us?

A : The most important thing that you can do is to leave plenty of extra time. Things never go exactly as planned and extra time will allow you to solve any problems and stay relaxed. Estimate how much time it will take for you to get ready (hair, make-up, etc.) and then DOUBLE it!

 

Q : How would you describe your photographic "style"?

A : Our goal is not to just take pictures but to tell a story. Your wedding is a very unique event that says a lot about both of you and it is our job to capture that. We combine photojournalistic, fine art, and formal photography together to do this.

 

Q : Is it really necessary to have two photographers at our wedding?

A : While many other photographers do photograph alone, we believe that it is impossible to do the event justice with just one photographer. Having two photographers allows us to capture more of the event and get multiple angles of the ceremony. No one wants all of the pictures to be of the back of the grooms head, by having two photographers we can get both sides without having to move around as much and cause a distraction.

 

Q : Can we take pictures at another location? (Or the church is ugly, what do we do?)

A : No problem. We are more than happy to take the bride and groom or even the entire wedding party to another location. Please keep in mind that this will require additional time and planning. Also, always have a backup plan if you are planning on photographing outside as you never know what the weather will do.

 

Q : Should we do our formal photographs before or after the ceremony?

A : That is a personal decision that only you can make, We fully understand the tradition of not seeing the bride before the wedding, however, it has been our experience that the formal pictures go much smoother before the guests arrive. By doing the picture before the ceremony you will not feel rushed to get to the reception and will not have to keep your guests waiting.

 

Q : How can we make sure we get the pictures that we want?

A : While we cannot guarantee we will get every picture that you request we will do our best. If you have specific requests please give us a typed list ahead of time. It will also be helpful to have someone from the wedding party available to gather people together so we can get the shots you request.

 

Q : Is it ok if guests take pictures?

A : Yes and No. Guests can take pictures during the ceremony and reception, however, we ask that you inform them to turn there flashes off and to stay out of our way. We would hate to miss an important shot because a guest was in our way or their flash ruined the image. During the formal pictures we request that no one else take pictures. Having other people take pictures will only serve as a distraction and till likely double or triple the amount of time required.

 

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

A : We can have digital proofs to you within a week. Hard copies (prints) can take up to three weeks.

 

Q : Can we have black and white photos too?

A : Yes. We can turn and picture to B&W or Sepia.

 

Q : We really like your work, but we have appointments with two other photographers after we see you. Will you call us if someone else wants our date before we make our decision? Or can you "pencil us in" for our date while we decide?

A : I can't hold a date open for you while you make your decision, but I will try to phone you if someone else contacts me about the date. However, if I am contacted by couples who are familiar with my work who want to book my services immediately. It isn't fair to these couples to make them wait while I contact someone who hasn't been able to make a decision. No wedding date will be held unless a deposit has been paid.

 

If you have any other question please do not hesitate to contact us.
