Inquire

1. Do any of the packages come with an engagement photoshoot?

Yes! All of our photography packages come with a complimentary engagement photoshoot to help you feel comfortable in front of the camera and to capture the beautiful moments leading up to your big day.

2. How far in advance should we book our wedding?

We recommend booking at least 6-12 months in advance to ensure availability, especially for popular wedding dates. The earlier you book, the more time we have to plan and customize the perfect package for you.

3. Do you offer both photo and video packages?

As of right now, we are not offering both wedding photography and videography at the same time. To ensure each wedding receives its proper time needed for editing, we can only provide one service for your wedding.

4. How long does it take to receive our wedding photos and video?

Our standard delivery time for wedding photos is typically 4-8 weeks, and wedding films are delivered within 8-12 weeks. We also provide a photo sneak peek typically 24-48 hours after the wedding for social media posting.

5. How many hours of coverage do we get?

Our packages range from 6 to 10 hours of coverage depending on your needs. We can customize the hours based on your timeline, ensuring every important moment is captured from the ceremony to the last dance.

6. Do we need to provide a shot list?

While we do a pre-wedding consultation to discuss your must-have shots and any specific requests, we also love capturing spontaneous moments that happen naturally. Feel free to provide a list, but trust us to capture your day in its most authentic and beautiful form.

7. Can we meet before the wedding?

Absolutely! We offer consultations (in-person, Zoom, or phone) to discuss your wedding day, your vision, and how we can best capture your unique story. It’s important to us that you feel comfortable and confident with us before the big day.

8. Do you travel for destination weddings?

Yes, we specialize in destination weddings and offer customized packages for weddings held in locations beyond our local area. We are happy to discuss travel fee, lodging, and package details specific to your dream wedding location.

9. Can we make changes to our wedding package after booking?

Yes! We understand that plans may change, and we are flexible in adjusting your package to meet your needs. Just reach out to us, and we’ll work with you to customize your package as your day approaches.

10. who Will be the ones shooting our wedding?

Joey handles all wedding shoots to ensure consistency and quality in both photography and videography. We also have a small, trusted team that may assist, but rest assured that we are the ones capturing your big day. All editing is done by Joey.

11. WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY AND VIDEOGRAPHY?

Wedding photography captures still moments that preserve the beauty, emotions, and details of your special day. Wedding videography, on the other hand, captures the movement, sound, and overall atmosphere, creating a cinematic experience.

12. Can we get raw footage of our wedding video?

We typically provide a fully edited highlight reel and feature film. While raw footage is not part of the standard package, we can discuss additional options if you’d like access to unedited clips.

13. Do you have insurance?

Yes, we are fully insured for liability and equipment coverage. This is important not only for your peace of mind but also for most wedding venues that require vendors to be insured. Proof of insurance will be provided if requested.

14. How do you handle lighting at evening or indoor weddings?

We are experienced in shooting in all lighting conditions and bring high-quality equipment to ensure your photos and videos look beautiful, even in low-light situations. We also work with venues and planners to ensure the best lighting setup for key moments.

15. Can you help us with our wedding timeline?

Absolutely! We provide guidance in creating a timeline that ensures your day runs smoothly and that we capture every important moment. We’ll collaborate with you and your planner to build a timeline that aligns with your vision.

16. What kind of style do you shoot in?

Our style blends documentary and cinematic techniques, capturing authentic moments while also creating stunning, timeless imagery. We focus on storytelling, ensuring that your photos and videos reflect both the emotional and visual beauty of your day.
