Frequently Asked Questions

Below is a list of the more common questions we’ve been asked by couples before and during the booking process.  Of course, if any other questions come to mind, please get in touch — we’d love to hear from you.



 

We’re getting married overseas and it’s going to be awesome! Are you willing to travel?
Absolutely. I’m all for shooting weddings in new and interesting locations and would love to work something out with you. Feel free to get in touch with me and we can discuss the details.

We’re actually getting married in Australia, but it’s outside of Perth. Do you travel locally too?
Yep! Location is not an issue. I am always available to shoot weddings throughout Australia, so whether you’re planning your ceremony in the greater WA region or having it over in the eastern states—I will travel to you.  Just get in touch for an estimated quote.

Where can I find more information on your package pricing?
Our packages start at $2750 and all include unlimited coverage on the day.  For a full price list and details about our packages, feel free to contact me and I’ll send one through to you.  We love talking and meeting with our couples, so if you love our work, please do get in touch!

Can we meet with you?
Of course! I love meeting couples personally before they decide to book me—it lets me get an idea of what they’re looking for and gives them a chance to get to know me and see if I’m the right fit for them as a photographer. After all, if you’re comfortable being on the other end of my camera, it will shine through in the photos.

We’d love to meet with you, but we’re located outside of Perth. Is there another way?
If I can’t meet you in person to talk about your wedding, that’s okay! My international and interstate couples have the option of meeting for a chat via phone or Skype.

On average, how many photos do you deliver after a wedding?
As I have a candid, un-posed style, the number of photos delivered will vary from wedding to wedding. The final amount depends on the number of photographers present, the length of the wedding, the type of venue and the number of guests. Typically, I will deliver upwards of 400 photos—and I always emphasize quality over quantity.

Do we receive digital copies of all the photos?
Absolutely. All my couples are provided with a DVD or digital download of all their photos, regardless of the package they choose to go with—and they’re more than welcome to copy, print, and share them with their family & friends. The photos are provided as high-resolution, fully edited JPEG files, free from watermarks and ready to print at any photo lab.

Do you offer pre-wedding or engagement photo shoots?
Yes, and I love them. I include them with most of our packages because it’s a great opportunity for me to get to know my couples, and vice versa. It also lets them have a little something to show off before their wedding!

What do you mean by “all-day coverage”?
All day coverage is something I feel very strongly about—which is why I include it with every package I offer. I’m there to tell the story of your wedding day—the whole day, not just the 8 hours in the middle. I’ll never leave before the bouquet toss, or ask you to do a mock cake cutting. I’ll be there for as long as you’d like me to be to capture the genuine moments that you’ll treasure for years to come. You are free to relax and enjoy your day to the fullest.

Do you include video options in your packages?
I’ve chosen to focus solely on wedding photography in order to make sure 100% of my expertise contributes to providing you with awesome images on your special day. As a result, I generally leave the video to the videographers—but I’d be more than happy to provide you with the details of some amazing videographers who I’ve worked with in the past.

Do you offer album options in your packages?
I do indeed! I offer a great range of album options to my couples, everything from beautiful, printed hardcover photo books all the way through to amazing, hand-made bespoke albums. Each one is designed and made to order and is completely customizable with a wide range of styles and finishes. If you’re interested and would like more information, feel free to get in touch and I’ll send you some information on what’s available.

Will you be personally photographing our wedding?
I’ll be there all day, with camera in hand, from the beginning of the bride’s preparation until you leave at the end of the reception.

Do you use a second photographer or assistant when covering weddings?
I usually do, yes. It’s not a requirement though—I leave it up to the couple to decide if they’d like to have a second photographer or not, depending on what they’re looking for! Generally, a extra photographer provides second pair of eyes and a different angle, allowing for a greater variety of images to be taken during the day—especially useful during once-off moments. They’ll also allow you to have a photographer present at the bride’s location as well as the groom’s location in the morning to capture images of both groups getting ready for the ceremony.

Are you willing to customize a package if none of yours fit our needs?
Absolutely. I have a range of “al la carte” options for you to pick and choose from in order to fully customize your own package—just get in touch and we’ll send you through a price guide. Of course, if you’d prefer some specific suggestions based on your needs, just let me know. I’d be more than happy to have a chat with you about your wedding and put together a customized package with you.

What equipment do you use when covering a wedding?
My assistant and I use professional Canon and Nikon cameras and lenses in order to achieve the best image quality possible. We also make sure that we’re fully prepared in the unlikely event of an equipment malfunction by bringing a plethora of backup equipment, just in case.

How long after my wedding do the photos get delivered?
I upload a partial preview to our website for you to share with your family & friends shortly after your wedding. The full collection of images is delivered four weeks after the wedding—if not earlier!

Is my wedding date available?
Excellent question! Just get in touch and I’ll let you know within 24 hours, if not sooner.

How do I secure my wedding date?
Certain times of the year are more competitive than others, so I’ve tried to streamline the booking process as much as possible to make it as hassle-free and relaxed as possible. If I’m available on the date in question, all you need to do to secure your booking date is indicate that you’d like to book me, and provide a $500 deposit (which is deducted from the total cost of the coverage). From there, with your date locked in, you have a month to go through at your leisure and pick out or customize a package that best suits what you have in mind.

All of this sounds great. What should we do from here?
Wonderful! Just get in touch and we’ll make a time to get together for a casual chat about your wedding. I’d love to hear more about what you have planned and what you’re looking for photography-wise.
