FAQ'S
*What is the alternative to having my consultation with you if I cannot come to your studio? We schedule a phone call or use Face Time.
*Do you travel to wedding destinations? Yes. Long distance travel fee equals the cost of travel (Photographer and Gear) and lodging. This is an open ended discussion to create a cost effective option. Local travel is calculated with the standard reimbursement rate.
*When will my portraits be ready to view? On an average our clients see their online gallery in approx. 2 weeks after the wedding or according to your schedule at a studio visit.
*How do I secure you for our wedding? You can call our studio at 317-366-1284. We hold your wedding date only after the receipt of a signed contract and a $500.00 non-refundable retainer fee is paid. The balance is due two weeks before the wedding.
*Why do I need an engagement session? Engagement session allows you to preserve those early special moments in your relationship. You get to meet your photographer and engagement session portraits allow you to save the date portraits and more.
*How often do we meet before the wedding? That will vary on factors but the goal is pre plan and be prepared. The more quality time we have together the two of us get to know me and feel peaceful with your photographer and you planning. I think you’ll find our expectations together will be quality along with fun.
*Why do you use a client gallery? Your gallery is a password protected website. Here you will see your props, choose your final favorites in the comfort of your home. Your family and friends can choose images as well and you’ll share the excitement. The gallery is our starting point for building your album as well.
*Do you offer coverage for rehearsal dinner? Yes, we can provide one hour of photographer time to cover our rehearsal dinner. Traveling distances sometimes has to be considered.
*How do we receive purchased digital files? You will receive purchased full resolution files on a DVD or a Flash Drive and or download with your finished album.
*Will all my images be touched? All images are color corrected. We retouch images that will be used in your wedding album and all prints larger than 5x7.
*What is advanced retouching? Images where everyone looks good but someone closed their eyes or squinted or maybe left to go to the venue and missed the family portrait. There are many ways to “put them” into your photos or make corrections above and beyond color corrections and basic retouching.
*What is your album turnaround time? Your wedding album is carefully designed and then printed by world class album makers. You will receive your album 5 - 6 weeks after you make the final selection of your images that you would like to include in the album. Any scheduling changes with this time frame and you will be notified.
*What happens if we have an outdoor wedding and the weather is not suitable for outdoors? We will adapt to the changing situation. Should the weather become unsafe for outdoor photography, we will find a suitable location inside to photograph.
*My venue requires a certificate of insurance from all vendors, can you provide one if needed? Yes. We need the venue’s contact information to mail them a copy.
*Will you or your assistant require meals? Yes, Most weddings last about 5 - 8 hours and the photographer will not have time to go off site for a meal. Your venue might have a special plan for vendor meals. We will together decide what time is best for us to take a break.
*Can other photographers shoot the event with you? Absolutely not. We allow only videographers to be present but no other photographer is allowed as part of our contract.
*Do you allow family and friends to take pictures with you? No, I encourage you to be the one to instruct people to stay back. You’ll find people want to support the bride and groom. Remember you’ve made an investment in hiring a professional photographer. Time management is a photographer's responsibility.
*What happens if you have a drastic emergency? Planning: I work with professional photographers and we support each other. As well, when you secure a second photographer you are guaranteed coverage.
