Q: What is considered to be the regular amount of money spent for professional wedding photography ?
A: 9-12% of your regular wedding budget. With video included, more than that, around 17-19%. Always remember that after the wedding, all that’s left to you are the photos (albums) and the rings. Taking professional, beautiful pictures to cherish forever it’s not an easy task. It requires a lot of training, a very good eye, a lot of responsibility and talent, great personality. A very good amount of the money you’re paying are going towards various expenses the photographer has to cover in order to complete this high skilled job and provide you with the quality you would expect. Q: Should we pay gratuity (tip) to our photographer and videographer ?
A: Yes. It is common for people, if they are satisfied with the quality of any service, to tip. Your wedding photos are very important. If your photo/video crew showes dedication, professionalism and good personal skills, a tip is always welcomed but never mandatory. Q: How many photos do we get for a wedding photo-shoot?
A: For a typical wedding, you’re getting 400-600 pro edited images.
If you’re having a second photographer, PJ (photojournalist), you’re getting another 400-600 edited images. Q: Do you shoot film or digital?
A: Nowadays, digital is the way to go for many reasons. We are shooting digital.
Film photography is considered already by many professionals as “special photography”. If you, for whatever reason, prefer to have your wedding shot film instead of digital, we can accommodate you.
Keep in mind though that this will increase the cost of your proofs and the production will be delayed by the longer processing times with film photography. Q: What lightning are you using ?
A: We are using flashes and portable lights to ensure great backgrounds and correct exposures. During the ceremony, we can shoot available light/no flash if the church/temple requires so. We respect the worship policies when it comes too flash photography and we’re trying to be as un-intrusive as possible during the procession. Q: How can I make my payments ?
A: You can pay by:
- check
- money order
- PayPal
- Visa, MasterCard, AmericanExpress, DiscoverCard
- Cash Q: What is the fee for a bounced check ?
A: The bank fee and the processing fee together is $25. Q: Do you have insurance ?
A: Yes, we carry New Yor State insurance. These are some of the most asked questions. For any other questions, feel free to contact us.
