How many photographers do you work with?

Do you guarantee your presence at the actual event?
Yes, once a contract and retainer are received, the wedding date is secured. I shoot all the weddings that I book.
Do you sometimes book yourself for more than one event in a day? Weekend?
No, I prefer to give couples the flexibility to request additional hours of coverage on their wedding day or during the wedding weekend, so I only book one wedding per weekend.

Yes, I have several photographer colleagues who are available in an emergency.

I shoot with Canon's line of digital SLR cameras, and typically have three bodies and a variety of lenses with me on the big day. I also have back-up equipment for critical pieces.

Yes, it's imperative for wedding photographers to have back-up equipment so that if one piece malfunctions, another is readily available.

Packages are by the hour, per the needs of my clients.

Yes, overtime is available at the standard hourly rate.

I typically do not take breaks other than during the meal. However, on 8+ hour days, I may take a small break if there is a lull in the action.
Do you charge for travel?
Yes, travel beyond 50 miles from home may incur mileage, hotel and other travel expenses, as needed.

An online gallery is available for viewing within 6 weeks of the event. Clients may also purchase proofs, if desired.

What kind of albums do you offer?
I offer a wide variety of albums, including matted, flush mount, coffee table books and combination (matted/flush mount) albums.
When will the client get the final album?
Each manufacturer has a different timeline for delivering an album, so that's hard to say. Album design also involves the client and so the turnaround time will also depend on the client's prompt approval of the album for production. Albums can take between 3-6 months, on average.
