FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS 

​

Do you do this full time? Can we book an engagement session during the week?

• Yes, I have been a full time wedding and family photographer since 2012 and have photographed hundreds of weddings over the years. I am happy to book throughout the week. Smaller sessions such as engagements are actually best booked during the week if possible as parks and beaches tend to be less busy. 

​

Can we meet before booking our wedding?

• Yes, I always encourage couples to meet up before booking. It is a great way to get to know each other, ask any questions, see more of my work, share ideas on the day itinerary, go over some locations for wedding photos and an engagement sesssion, and much more. This a complimentary meeting that should give any couple a good idea of whether they feel comfortable to proceed. After all, I may be that one person you'll get to be around more than anyone else on your wedding day other than the two of you :D... If meeting in person is not an option or is difficult I am also happy to meet over zoom or other. 

​

 Can we see a wedding gallery as an example of how you photograph the whole day? 

• Yes, I'll be  more than happy to provide a couple wedding galleries upon request. 

​

How many images should we expect to get after the wedding? Are there any additional fees?

• Typically couples receive anywhere between 1,400-2,000+ edited, high resolution images from an all day wedding with me as the only, primary photographer... more with 2nd shooter. Couples also receive a few hundred of my favorite photos in another edit style such as black and white or other.

• You will get all the photos I take through the wedding/session, aside from the duplicates and ones with closed eyes, etc. All photos are included in the package price and will be edited and in high resolution. No additional feels added aside from a 5% GST for the final package price.​

​

How long does it take to get all the edited photos?

• Couples tend to get their  photos within 3-6 weeks. Every couple also receives at least 20-30 photos as a sneak peek within the first 1-3 days. For smaller sessions such as engagements you should anticipate to have your photos within 1 week or so.

​

What sets you apart from other photographers? 

• I am very passionate about what I do. Most importantly I go above and beyond in making sure every client is very happy with the photos and my service. In hiring me you hire not just a professional but someone who will truly care about your experience and memories. 

​

What is your style of photography?

• I have developed more of a photojournalistic style of photography over the years. I love documenting the entire wedding capturing lots of candid moments while also making sure couples get some of the more traditional type of photos with their family and friends. I also like to ask couples if they have a preferred style and if they would like me to focus on anything in particular throughout     their wedding. 

​

We are very shy in front of the camera, will you be able to help direct us?

• Yes, I would be more than happy to help position you to get the best results and make you feel great about every photo. I also enjoy taking candid shots of couples when they are relaxed and least expect it to get those "wow, I love this photo of me and I had no idea she took it" type of reaction.

​

Can I ask for a special editing style? 

• Typically I edit all photos in color, however, there are instances where I feel a certain session looks great in other edit styles (such as vintage, etc.) in which case I will provide more than one edit as a sneak peek and ask the couple if they have a preference for specific edit style. I can also give a few edit choices according to the style that the couple is looking for, especially if they for instance had a certain theme in mind for their wedding. 

​

Do you also provide videography?

• No, I specialize in photography only. However, I have worked with many videographers over the years. Feel free to see my “Vendors” page if you would like some recommendations.

 

Can we hire you as a team of photographers and videographers?

• I prefer to communicate with couples directly regarding photography only and believe it is in the couples’ best interests to communicate directly with any other vendor. This helps make the experience more personable ensuring the couple gets to know and is happy with all their vendors. It avoids miscommunication and makes sure the couple can express exactly what they are looking for, ask the vendors who does the editing for any changes, and express themselves without going through a third person.
