| We have worked with Maelene for several years now. We love it when one of our couple's tell us that they have chosen her to be their photographer. We know our day will run smoothly. She has a great creative eye and is very helpful during the day even with the little details. | |
| A pleasure to work with. Great interaction with the clients. |
Frequently Asked Questions
| How do you
identify your primary photographic style? I have a mix of photojournalistic, traditional, and candid style. I love fun exciting poses. I try to capture everything in a viriety of ways so that you have endless choices to please all of your family and friends. I want you to say after your wedding that I captured stuff you didnt even see. |
| Please describe
any special techniques you offer: I love the mix of black and white and color right now. Sometimes you can change the feel of a shot by adding a special effect. Look at the shot of the guys walking in my gallery. by taking away the color and bumping up the expoisure changed the mood of this shot. |
| Which lighting
situations do you have experience with? I have shot in most all conditions. I have a light kit but would rather shoot in natural light. Overcast is great for peoples faces. I have shot in the Sun, Clouds, Snow, & rain. I have even shot durring a tornado.... |
| Do you have a
media preference? I was the last hold out amoung my photographer friends to go digital. I loved film and I knew just how it would come out. The switch to digital has been amazing at times and a challange at times. The instant gratification of seeing that I nailed the shot is great and the control after the shoot is the best. |
| How many
photographers do you work with? It is just me. I am the owner and the photographer so I handle each customer personaly. |
| Do you
guarantee your presence at the actual event? Yes, when you book Hot Shots you get Me. |
| Do you
sometimes book yourself for more than one wedding in a day? I never book more then one Wedding a day. You dream of your wedding since you were little. You plan it for a year or more. You live it for a day. How can I come in and get all the love and emotion in a few hours. |
| Do you have a
replacement photographer in case you become unavailable on
the wedding day? I have never missed a wedding but I have a net work of other photographers I trust and have a similer style as I do to call on in case of an emergency. |
| What kind of
equipment do you typically bring with you on the day-of? I use Nikon cameras. I bring 3 cameras, and selections of lens's, lighting equipment, special filters, lot os small stuff to name. I try to keep some special items on me. Double sided body tape, straight pins, saftey pins, lint roller, shout wipes. You just never know when a bridal party is going to need something. |
| Do you bring
back-up equipment to the event in case of malfunction? Yes |
| Do you charge
hourly or full day? My packages are for the entire day and all inclusive. |
| If hourly, are
you available for shooting overtime? If so, how much do you
charge for overtime? No need to charge overtime. |
| Do you require
a meal break? If yes, do you require that the wedding party
provide your meal? Yes I am with you the entire day and I would not be able to just leave for the bruger drive through. :) including me in the reception meal is the best for both of us. That way I am always near by to grab the shot when needed. |
| How many breaks
do you usually take throughout the day? There will be glimpses of time to get a "break" so to speek. Durring the message portion of a service I can pause to just relax and think about the next formality comming up. Durring the meal is a time I can have a bit of talk with the others at the table all while keeping an eye on the couple. |
| Do you charge
for travel? If the wedding / reception is located more then 35 mins away there maybe a travel charge. If the location is more then 1 hr away I may ask for acomidations. If the location is out of the state travel will be negogiated. |
| How soon after
the event are the proofs ready for viewing? Proofs will be posted to the online viewer 4 to 6 weeks after the wedding and the books will fallow just after that. If your wedding falls around the Christmas / new Years hollidays then there maybe a longer delay. |
| In what format
are the initial proofs offered? Website and also as a finished 4x6 print in an album. |
| How long can
the couple keep the proofs? Proofs are included in the package so they are your to keep. |
| Do you retain
the copyright for the photos? Yes |
| Do you reserve
the right to publish the photos? Yes |
| Do you provide
the digital files and/or negatives (or copies of the
negatives) to the couple? For an additional fee. |
| Will images be
available for viewing on an online gallery? Yes |
| What kind of
albums do you offer? We have a vireity of albums from traditional to the new sleek coffee table books. |
| When will I get
the final book? Albums come about 4 to 6 weeks after final approval of the layout. |
I ask for a deposit and then 1/2 of the remaining ballance on or by the day of the wedding and then the ballance when you pick up the proofs. We now offer gift registration also.
