FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
RECEIVED BY NORTHWEST INDIANAWEDDING PHOTOGRAPHERS
Where are you located?
I work as a destination wedding photographer based out of FL. I often work in Indiana since I grew up there and frequently fly back, but I primarily travel everywhere for weddings.
How do we reserve you for our wedding day?
After we do a phone call & consultation to all that’s required is a $1500 retainer and a signed contract
How would you describe your style?
Your images will be cinematic and candid. You’ll see real moments and emotion, but always presented in a beautiful, artistic way. There is minimal posing followed by prompts & conversation so you forget about the camera.
Do you travel?
I prefer it! I Seeing new places is fun and allows me to stay creative because I am always exploring. As a former local wedding photographer in northwest Indiana I enjoy getting to come back and visit!
Do you take traditional “smile at the camera” photos?
No, its a general rule no one is allowed to smile at the camera. Im kidding, of course I do. Personally I find candid imagery the most genuine, so that is what I tend to share the most on social media.
What size weddings do you typically photograph?
I’ve photographed all sizes of weddings in northwest Indiana and elsewhere. I definitely enjoy the intimacy of smaller weddings and find that it feels more focused that way. With that said – I have shot several 400+ guest weddings and loved it. Either way, your story and vision are always the primary focus!
How are the photos delivered?
Photos are delivered through a digital gallery which is easily sharable and allows for easy downloads, purchases of prints, and multiple image sizes.
Do you need a shot list?
Family formal combination lists are very helpful. Otherwise, capturing your story as it happens is top priority. Shot lists can be super distracting and create missed real moments. With that said – you can absolutely share your inspiration!
Do you photograph details?
If they are important to you, absolutely. If you don’t care and want more candids, then thats my focus. I will always get at least some detail shots no matter what.
How many images are delivered?
Each wedding is unique, but in general, somewhere between 400-1000 images depending on the length of coverage and type of wedding.
