Do you shoot film or digital?

I have both film and digital cameras and believe there are advantages to both mediums. As
more and more people are requesting digital, I will shoot primarily with my Canon 5D, but
also use my film camera for some effects that digital still hasn't mastered.

 

How long does it usually take for you to shoot formals and when do you do them?

With my style focusing more on candids, I find an hour is usually plenty
of time to get all the formals taken care of. I have found it best to have all the
formals done before the ceremony. This way your guests aren't waiting at the
reception without any host or hostess.

 

Do you shoot black & white as well as color?

Yes, I shoot a good mix of both. However, if you prefer one over the other or more of one
than the other, I will be happy to accomodate your needs.

 

What does a full set of 4 X 6 prints mean?

This essentially means that every picture I take you get a 4 X 6 print of. Roughly I shoot anywhere
between 13 to 18 rolls of film per wedding. While that puts me at a disadvantge because you get to
see all the pictures, even the ones that most photographers would weed out, I believe it to be one less
hassle for you as far as ease of viewing prints. It is my goal to provide you with an absolute minimum
of 80-100 that are "album worthy."

 

When will I get my pictures back?

It is generally a 4-6 week turn around time.

 

What do I do about reprints?

One of the luxuries of my package is that you get to keep the negatives/CD's which are available to you the day
you get your pictures back. Upon delivery I will recommend some places that I use that do a wonderful job.
You also of course are free to contact me if you would like custom black and white enlargements done.

 

Are you actually the photographer?

Yes, I will be the only one shooting your wedding. If requested and if available a second photographer may be
hired.

 


What makes you different from other photographers?

Where some photographers are very insistent and controlling, I take a more hands off, documentary approach
and let your day unfold the way you want it to, not the way I want it to. I am very flexible and am always open
and excited to do whatever I have to to get interesting, captivating photos.

 

What if I want an album?

I offer a number of different album options which I'm glad to discuss with you to customize one for your own personal needs.
