| How
many photos do you usually take at a wedding?
|
Depending on the size and duration of your
celebration, we will take anywhere from 125-175 photographs per hour. |
| Will
you take formal portraits of our special family members and wedding party? |
Most of the formal photos made of their family and wedding
party will be taken before the actual celebration. Typically a traditional photographer would take
up to 2 hours of group portraiture, our
clients usually prefer to minimize this to under 1 hour in their
coverage time. We will spend 20 to 30 minutes after the celebration to
capture the full wedding party so that you can quickly get to the
reception. |
| Can I give you a list of photos I would
like to have shot? |
At least one week prior to the wedding, you may compose a
"must have picture list" and send it us. Included in the
list please tell us what formal group portraiture you would like us
to photograph. This is comprised of people/
groups you want in the group shots. The remainder of the wedding and reception
will be approached in a photojournalistic style. Rest assured that the essential shots like
bouquet toss, cake cutting, toasts, etc. will be taken. |
|
Do you bring back-up equipment with you? |
Each photographer is equipped with at least 2 cameras including extra flashes,
and batteries. |
Why
is it beneficial to have 2
photographers? |
We encourage you to have 2 photographers because this allows the client to get more perspectives,
different angles, and more coverage. |
| Do
you travel? If so, how do you charge for travel expenses? |
We gladly travel anywhere to photograph your
wedding! Please note that
within a 50 mile radius of our location in Boiling Springs, SC, is
included in any package and each mile thereafter is an additional charge
of $0.75 per extra mile above the 50 mile radius (only calculated one
way). Please contact us
for an estimate. |
| Do
you carry and help put together wedding albums? |
If you request leather or any type specialty albums we can
prepare it for you. Just ask us and will always be happy to help you in
anyway we can! Available in a variety of sizes--please call for more
details. |
