The FAQ
Do you Travel?
Yes. I love to travel. I do have limited destination wedding spots for the year so be sure to book in advance to secure a spot.
How long have you been doing this?
Ive been in the wedding industry since 2012 and Ive been shooting full time since 2014
How many weddings have you photographed?
Well over 200
How many photos do we get?
Quality is much more important than quantity for me, so if you are after 1000's of images for the best bang for your buck then I'm probably not the photographer for you. I do not limit images to a set number but rather choose the best of the best and deliver those. An average for a 8 hour wedding with 2 photographers would be +- 350 images.
How do we get our photos?
All images are delivered via an online gallery. From here you can download the high resolution images as well as web res versions. Custom usb flash drives can also be purchased at an Addtional cost.
Do you retouch photos?
I do yes, but only to a natural level. Im not about to slim you down by 10kg or make you 10 years younger. I believe that retouching should follow the same principles as makeup- there to enhance whats already beautiful, but if you can notice it, you're doing it wrong.
Whats your turn around time?
For weddings I work on an 8-10 week turn around in summer season.
Couple and Family shoots are 2-4 week delivery.
How do we book you?
To secure your date I'll need a 50 retainer fee/deposit as well as a signed contract. I aways encourage a phone call/zoom before booking as well to make sure that we're on the same page and a good fit :)
Can you help us with planning?
I can help with basic photo timeline planning, but beyond that I have some great wedding planners I can recommend.
How far out do you book?
I take wedding bookings up to 18 months in advance.
What should we do for an engagement session?
Something that feels unique and natural to you as a couple. Pop me an email for some suggestions and guides
What should we wear to our family/couple shoot?
head to the " contact" page and pop me a mail. Ive got some guides that I'll send you that can guide you on this topic and more.
Is the retainer/deposit refundable?
Unfortunately not. When I book a wedding date, I turn away others for that same date. All of this info is clearly outlines in my contract which needs to be read and signed before booking.
Can I have the RAW/unedited images?
Nope sorry. We give a selection of the best images from the day and carefully edit each one. Giving over Raw images doesn’t properly display our work and can negatively affect our brand if edited or displayed differently. If you wish to have more images from your day(more than an additional 10) additional editing fees will apply.
