FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How do you do photo & Video at the same time?
This question gets asked a lot. I do not have some crazy camera contraption that allows ME to simultaneously shoot photos and video. Haha.
When hired for both photography and videography, I work as the lead photographer and then I bring my video team, based on the package you select (one or two videographers).
Can I add video later?
Yes, you totally can! It’s best to have your videography booked 3-6 months before your Wedding so I can get my team assigned to your date, but as long as they are avaiable, you can add them to your package.
How do I get the video?
Typically between 4-8 weeks after your wedding, you will get your final wedding film on a hard drive. I will also send you a link to the video on youtube so you can easily share with friends and family.
Do you provide all of the raw footage?
Yes, you can purchase the raw footage from the wedding on a hard drive. This will include the ceremony, full speeches, and all dances. You can do anything you like with your footage!
Isn't Video obtrusive and annoying?
Not at all. No big bright lights or in your face annoyingness here. We’ve seen the videographers you are imagining and that is NOT us. We use an unobtrusive and documentary style while capturing every moment. We use the most state of the art camera technologies that allow us to shoot in extremely low light without the use of on camera lighting.
Can I hire you for just video?
Of course! Many couples find me AFTER they have already booked their wedding photographer. Don’t worry, I play nice with others! I have made great friends with some amazing photographers over the years by being the videography team at a wedding they photographed.
How do you choose music for our video?
Getting to know you as a couple and learning your style is an important part of the booking process for me. Are you guys more rock and roll or do you have a hiphop vibe? These are things I will learn about you that will help influence my choices for the music in your video. Many people don’t know that it isn’t legal (or cost effective) to use the latest most popular radio hit in their wedding film. All music chosen for your film will be professionally licenced and perfectly fit the vibe of your day.
How do we book you?
Easy! Send me a message so we can jump on a brief phone call. Let’s discuss some of the details of your wedding to see if we may be a good fit for your wedding day. From there, I will send you all the booking information electronically. You simply pay the deposit of 50% and you are on my calendar!
Do you travel for weddings?
For sure. 45 miles from Stroudsburg Pa is covered at no additional charge. Anything farther is billed at 55 cents a mile. For destination weddings, I simply require accommodations the night before as well as the night of the wedding.
Do you love weddings?
I really do! My goal is to capture moments that will become your most treasured keepsake. Images that will transport you back to the happiest day of your life, and allow you to relive beautiful fleeting frames in time, once again. I am honored every time I am selected to photograph a couple’s special day and as a genuine thank you, I commit to delivering an experience that will absolutely blow you away.
