Your wedding day celebration, captured in photos
Throughout the years we've been photographing weddings. We've been with our clients the moment they booked with us until the laughs and crying moments at their wedding day. A lot of them became good friends of ours. We believe that the recipe to good photographs is trust, a relationship with our couples helps them prepare to be just them in front of the camera.
Our Process
01.
Fill out the form
Whenever you’re ready, just fill out the contact form. I’ll get back to you too as soon as possible so we can iron out the details of your wedding plans.
02.
Connect
I prefer meeting with you and hanging out over coffee, or we can setup a zoom call and discuss more of the wedding details. In that way I get to know more of you, It would be a good opportunity for me to show you a full gallery of previous/recent weddings so you get a full sense of what our work looks like.
03.
The day of
On the day of the wedding, I will be hanging out with you the whole time you booked me in. I will be around to document moments as it happens. I always carry a chill vibe and always unobtrusive. I'm there to hangout with you and take amazing moments with my camera.
04.
Gallery delivery
Once the images are done, they will be uploaded to a private online client gallery. You will receive an email that your online gallery is ready. There you can view, share, and download the images. You can create a favourites folder so you can choose what images to share. You can download the original size images which is the native size or full quality set of images for you to keep and print, and a web ready resolution copy, ready to upload on social media sites or over the internet.
How do we book?
I prefer meeting all my clients and hang out with them over coffee and discuss more of the wedding details. In that way I get to know more of you. Then if you have decided that we are the style of photography you are after and a good fit for you, I will email you a proposal and a contract for you to sign with an initial invoice to seal the date.
Our wedding is outside Auckland, do you travel?
Yes we do! If the location is more than 50kms one way, we will require a rental car + petrol costs OR charge a standard mileage fee + petrol costs. If the event is outside Northland or overseas, please flick us a message, tell us your plans and we will go from there.
What are your payment terms?
We require a 30% (non-refundable) deposit to seal the date. The balance is payable 3 weeks before the wedding. For Engagement sessions only, we require the full amount.
Do you require food and parking space?
Yes, it would be great to energize and replenish too with a decent meal after a whole day of photographing, If the client/venue is not able to provide vendor meals, photographers will be offsite for 1 hour to get some food and drinks.
Do you have a Public Liability Insurance?
Yes we do! Let your venue get in touch with us so we can give them the details.
Do we get the RAW files or unedited photos?
NO. We give you the high resolution processed images. Our editing, and end product is our style, and it is part of the service you will get from us.
Do you edit the images?
Yes, We do minimal retouching, but NOT extensive editing and photo manipulation.
Do we need to give you a shot list?
No, we will be there to document the event so, rest assured we will get the important moments of the day. However, if there is a particular person or event that requires our attention, feel free to mention it to us.
Do we have the rights for the digital files?
You may print and share your images whenever and wherever you like. However, you cannot sell and publish your images for profit, or use them in any commercial use without our written consent. If any of your wedding vendors request for some of your images for magazine publications or wanting to use it for their advertising or feature, please send them our way so we can provide them their needs.
Can we show you images on my Pinterest board of ideas?
Sure you can! It is a good way to show your ideas and taste with us, but we will not re-create the shot. All photographs are different, lighting situations, location and mood. We will have our own take on it and we will make it original and unique as your own.
How long do we have to wait until we get our copy of the photos?
Our turnaround time is between 6 to 8 weeks. We do not outsource our culling and editing; we handpick the photos that make it to the edit and post process the images that represents our style. However, you will receive a few Web Resolution images as Highlights within a week or 2 after the wedding so you can share them to your family and friends or social media.
