INFO FAQ
-
My wedding photography packages start at $2,350. I offer packages to suit various needs, but I also understand that no two weddings are alike. Feel free to contact me with more details about your wedding plans so that I can provide a customized estimate.
-
I do have secondary Silver Moon shooters, but based on my clients’ needs and budgets, I sometimes work solo. However, rest assured — with one photographer or multiple, I’ll make sure every moment of your wedding is captured beautifully, from start to finish.
-
As a still wedding photographer, I do not offer videography services. However, I do have a list of great videographers I’d be happy to recommend upon request.
-
We edit all of the best shots from the day. There’s no set number, but a full day of wedding photography usually results in 350-400 edited images. These images will be presented to you on a beautiful wooden USB, and the files will be suitable for 5” x 7” prints. (You’ll have the rights to print as many 5” ×7” photos as you’d like.)
Enlargements and a variety of unique wall art can be ordered through Silver Moon. I partner with a professional photography print lab to guarantee the quality of your enlargements and wall art.
-
I absolutely love traveling, and I’m more than happy to shoot your destination wedding — no matter the location, foreign or abroad. Of course, travel fees vary on case-by-case basis, so feel free to contact me with questions relating to travel.
-
You’ll receive a Sneak Peek social media album within two weeks of your wedding. The remaining images will be delivered within a month and a half of your wedding.
If you choose to purchase any prints/enlargements, wall art, photo books, or photo albums, these items will require additional time (depending on which items you select). You will be asked to approve all items ordered, and they generally take about a week to process. I’ll deliver them to you as soon as I receive them from the lab.
-
Of course! For those who don’t partake in social media, I offer a different gallery option allowing you to privately share images of your special day with friends and family.
However, please note (per the contract) that your photos may be used for advertising/commercial purposes on my own website or blog, or in other public advertising materials.
-
The digital images you’ll receive are suitable for 5” × 7” prints. Larger prints may be purchased through Silver Moon, as we work with a professional photography lab that guarantees the quality of enlargements and other products. As creative professionals, we have high standards for the way your special moments are displayed, and I want to ensure only the best quality for my clients.
-
It’s always an honor to design wedding albums for my couples, and the ones we offer are beautifully crafted with high-quality materials. When you request an album, I’ll put together a sample that showcases your wedding in a storybook format. Then, we can make adjustments based on your feedback. Only after your final review and 100% approval will we place your album order.
-
I’ve been there and I know how you feel! I often work in situations where my models have never stepped in front of a camera — but as your photographer, it’s my job to make sure you look your best and feel confident! I’ll help as much or as little as needed to make sure you’re feeling great throughout your entire wedding day. You’re in good hands!
-
Absolutely. In fact, I always prefer to shoot your engagement session and your wedding whenever possible. Working as your engagement photographer allows me to see the unique nuances of your relationship, through a lens, before your wedding day. This also helps to create a cohesive storyline and consistent vibe (rustic? traditional? conceptual?) from start to finish. And of course, it gives us more time to be creative with each other!
Engagement sessions are included with some wedding packages and can be added to others.
-
The sooner the better! If you’ve set a date and know you definitely want me to shoot your wedding, please book now! The only way to guarantee the date is to submit a deposit.
-
Yes, you can hire me for as long as you’d like. We’ll chat in-depth about the timing details of your wedding to be sure the package you choose covers all of your needs. If we decide I should stay until the very end, then I will be happy to do so.
However, if for some reason the timing of your event falls out of sync with your chosen package and I’m needed later than expected, I gladly offer hourly rates.
-
A meal isn’t required, but it is greatly appreciated. As you’ll see, I work like a busy bee at weddings, fluttering to and fro so as not to miss a single moment. By the time dinner is served, I’ve usually worked up an appetite — and a hot meal is more substantial than the just-in-case granola bar that’s been in my bag since 2012. 😉
-
I always wear black! It’s my job to remain as “invisible” as possible, and wearing all black will help you and your guests dismiss me as quickly as you see me, keeping the attention on you and your partner.
-
I’ll capture all the details of your wedding day, so sending a general shot list is not required. However, I do welcome you to compile a shot list of desired family photos. This will provide me with a helpful glimpse into your family structure (divorced parents, step parents, etc.), and it will also allow us to move through the process of taking family photos at a nice pace.
If you have any other special photo requests, please feel free to send them to me before the big day.
-
Yes, let’s do it! This day is all about you, and I’m here to help it run as smoothly as possible and to capture beautiful moments along the way. All you’ll have to do is keep me informed leading up to your wedding day. (Don’t worry, I’ll remind you.)
-
All Silver Moon wedding packages include at least one mounted print of your choice, and some packages include more than others.
Additionally, a little birdie told me that every Silver Moon client receives a secret, personalized gift. Shhh!
-
Truly and honestly, weddings are my favorite! Where else can you witness such remarkable displays of head-over-heels love? When else do friends and family gather for such a vibrant celebration? There’s nothing quite like a wedding, and it’s always an honor for me to be a part of making my clients’ big days spectacular.
-
Yes! I offer a wide range of services in addition to wedding and engagement photography, and I’m only a phone call away to discuss your specific needs.
