FAQ

We know that this day is very special and the only way to remember it is through photos. We’re here to be a resource, to answer your questions, and help create a stress-free atmosphere. We want you to look back 20 years from now, and not only have stunning photos, but also be able to say- “wow, that was an amazing and fun day and we had a great team with our photographers!”

Having a stylish, fun, gay photographer…does not get better than that ;). Let’s just be honest. 

Great question! Our average client spends between $11,000-$15,000. Because wedding services are not something you buy every day, we’d love to schedule a meeting to get to know the two of you, hear more about your wedding, and tell you more about us. During that meeting, we can go through our general pricing guide and then build out a proposal tailored to your needs.

If you are hiring us for a standard 7-10 hour wedding day, the answer is YES. If you are hiring us just for a small, intimate 30 person micro-wedding, then maybe not. For a standard wedding, we have one of our associates, in addition to Mateo, every time. We also have a our Creative Coordinate/Stylist with as well. It is crucial you have someone with your fiance before ceremony & someone capturing additional/creative angles on things during the day & wedding. It is KEY to have at least one other photographer. We sometimes have three or four, depending on the production level. 

We do! We have a Creative Coordinator/Stylist that is included in most wedding collections. That person is separate from our associate photographer. They are in charge of styling our couple’s throughout the day, styling the details of everything (invitation suite, couple’s hair, fluffing dress, fixing jewelry, etc), posing our couples, clearing backgrounds, etc. They are not your everyday assistant, they are trained and have been with our team for years. This is truly one of the things that makes us different from most. Our creative coordinator’s are not your planner, by NO means, but they are in charge of everything on the production side for us and keep the day running super smooth and fun. 

We do not offer videography. However, we work with some amazing videographers and would love to give you our recommendations.

This is not a service we offer often. If you have a compelling reason, it is something we would consider for a certain amount. We pride ourselves in delivering a quality final product that has been color-corrected, exposed properly, cropped, etc. 

We do not guarantee any amount because every wedding is different. However, most clients receive an average of 500-1,000 photos. 

We do recommend you print through our lab. Most local and online print shops will not give quality prints. We truly care about the product you receive and can guarantee that by printing through us you will get the absolute best. With that said, you do not have to print through our lab. When you book with us, you will receive a print release allowing you to print your photos anywhere.

With over a decade in the wedding industry, we’ve shot at hundreds of venues so there’s a good chance we have. We like to think we are masters of light at this point and can shoot pretty much anywhere and under any light circumstances, and still provide incredible imagery. We are always happy to do a walk-through of your venue before your wedding, but honestly, we feel confident in our abilities to take any space and make it look great. For destination weddings, we will most likely do a trip out there before the wedding, or fly in several days before to be able to scout the lay of the land. We also consult with the venues/planners to chat about locations/logistics, and then consult with our clients on those options to make sure your vision comes to fruition. 

Of course! While weddings are our forte, we do enjoy shooting other events such as engagements, proposals, anniversaries, corporate events, seminars and more. Reach out for a full list of events we shoot.

In addition to our aesthetic vibe of editing, we also focus on color correction, lighting, exposure and much more. For prints and albums, additional touch-ups may be requested.

That depends on the vastness of your day. We’ll schedule a meeting with you, and/or your planner, to go over the details and discuss a timeline that’ll allow the right amount coverage to best suit your needs. Our couples typically need anywhere from 8 to 12 hours.

We do charge an additional hourly rate that’ll be found on the pricing guide; however, we will not charge you before discussing it first.

We offer a guaranteed turnaround time of 4 to 6 weeks. We realize that engagement photos may be used for save the dates, invitations, or printed for parties, so we definitely strive to push them to you sooner. We will also send a quick sneak album within a few days of the session. 

We estimate your wedding photos to be delivered to you within 12 weeks. This could be less, or more. We want to make sure your photos are just right before you receive them. We usually send a large sneak peek album within a week of your wedding. 

We own the copy right and provide you with the print & digital rights. An image print release provided to you will contain this information.

We respect the needs of our clients and are willing to make changes to the contract if necessary. We have tons of experience with couples who request their images not to be used for any publication due to underlying circumstances and that’s okay! Technically, we are the copyright owners of the images, but can modify the terms of that on a case by case. We also shoot profile weddings, or events, that require NDAs at times. That is not a problem. 

Each photographer uses two memory cards when shooting and the images are immediately backed up when we return to our studio after the wedding. Your images are backed up in our hard drive, the cloud and two addition local backups.

We’re glad you asked. We love meeting with our couples and getting to know all about who you are. So please, let’s grab a cocktail or coffee and get to know one another. We can also meet on zoom or the phone, as well.
