QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
QUESTIONS & ANWERS
How far will you travel for a wedding or an elopement photoshoot?
Tell me where you need me, and I’ll do my best to make it happen! If I can’t be there, perhaps my second shooter can! We are down for a hike on top of a waterfall in the Catskills, or a beachy Caribbean destination wedding. Each wedding package includes a 50 mile radius round trip from Tarrytown, New York for travel. Anything outside of that is the standard $0.58 a mile, plus room & board fee if necessary.
Do you shoot Saturday weddings?
For me, Saturday is Sabbath. It begins from Friday sunset and ends Saturday sunset. It’s a time to reflect on God, to take a moment out in nature, or to commune with my church family. It is a day of worship, a day away from doing business, and a day that God set apart from the beginning of time when He rested on the 7th day of creation. Therefore I do not photograph weddings on Sabbath.
However I am still available to shoot engagement photoshoots and any Sunday-Friday weddings or elopements! I understand that weddings happen every day of the week, including Saturdays. If your wedding falls on a Sabbath day, I can recommend other awesome photographers in the local area.
How do we book and secure our dates?
I’m thrilled that you want to book with me! Booking is simple. I offer a free 30 minute Skype consultation to make sure that we are a good fit for each other, to answer any of your questions or ease any of your concerns, and to get better acquainted with you. Here we will go over the photographic ‘style’ you like most, what is most important to you for me to capture (family/guests shots vs you two, closeups of details vs the overall picture), etc. You can tell me all about the plan for your wedding day!
When you are ready to book, a 25% non-refundable deposit is required upfront (via debit/credit card, paypal, etc), along with the signed contract, in order to reserve your date. Then a pre-wedding consultation will be scheduled a month prior to the wedding day to go over logistics and any last minute scheduling, along with the remainder of the payment. If you need to cancel (and we cannot reschedule for another day), then you will receive the full payment back, minus the non-refundable deposit.
