FAQ's/PRICING

•   Who will be photographing my wedding? I will.  You have hired a professional photographer to take beautiful and memorable picture of your special day.  It is important that the professional be allowed to do his very best.  Until I get so booked up, and I cannot photograph all the weddings, I will hire someone else that is equally qualified, and you will know this, too, and if you don't like him/her and her work, you are free to go somewhere else.

•   Is it OK for my family to photograph the pictures that you just photographed?   In regards to Flash lighting, PLEASE ask your friends and family to be sure to wait until the photographer has finished taking his picture before they start shooting.  This is especially important during the formal pictures at the church in front of the altar and at the reception during the cake cutting.  

•   There are two reasons for this:  First of all the photographer composes the formal pictures as well as those at the reception to produce the best images possible for your album.   I use highly powered flash units that require a lot of battery power to do this.   Secondly, the flash may require a few seconds to recycle for the next flash.  If the flash has just gone off from another person's flash, or has not quite recycled all the way, the photographer might miss a precious moment or you will get the pictures where his flash did not fire completely because it did not have time to fully recycle - thus, creating a bad picture.  It creates an overexposed look that isn't glamorous.

•   I heard that you do video, how much does that cost?  Do you do it alone, or does someone else help you as well? Our Videos start at $800, and up to about $1200 .--In addition, I have partnered with a professional videographer, Frogman Productions (http://www.frogmanproductions.com). Frogman Productions that uniquely specializes in artistic wedding videography, which includes 3 camera set ups,multiple mic's and cinematic style editing. Prices start at $1750 based upon availability. When you sign up with the both of us, We'll give you extra bonus's!

Do you do Gift Certificates? And if so, how much are they? What kind of increments can I buy for my friend that's getting married? I've used your services before, and would like to give them a gift certificate. No Problem! See the "gift certificate" icon above, and purchase a gift certificate for your friends and loved ones.
•   Is it edited?  Put onto DVD?---The answer to that is YES! You'll get 4 sets: 1 Draft DVD set; and 3 DVD sets for you, and your families.

•  

•   Do I get an album, or do I have to pay extra for one?
Yes, you do get a proof album, at no extra charge to you it's nice, and I will show you a sample when you come down to see me and my extra photos not shown here on the internet.  

•   How do I get a list of all the people that I want photographed for my formal pictures?  There are just so many! We would also like a list for the videographer, as well.
No need to worry!  I have a check list and will give you one so you can check off all the pictures you want, and if for some reason one of the pictures aren't checked off, no sweat, I will be more than happy to take care of you right on the spot.  Also, there will be spaces left on that check list that you can write additional pictures not listed on my check off sheet.

•   Do you have a cell phone, just in case I have to get a hold of you while you're not home?  Or, while you're photographing our wedding, plans change?
Yes, I do.  It's 414/881-7137.

I'm also looking into the option of having photographs taken of your family and friends at the reception venue for FREE!!! ASK ME FOR ALL DETAILS FOR 2007 BRIDES!
•   How many pictures do I get?  Or do I only get a few pictures.  I have looked at a lot of other photographer's/photo studios, and they only give like 25 pictures to pick from.  How does it work for you?
No need to worry,  you will be receiving well over 350 photographs(all day) from your wedding.  

•   Do you photograph in digital?  In 2007?!  The answer to that is YES!
I primarily use digital now, unless requested for film at an additional $400.  . I may be using Medium Format for some of those things that are a little more difficult to duplicate in digital.  Even in 2006, I will be still using some medium format for romantic or extremely important pictures that you would like to enlarge larger than a 16x20.  I will be investing thousands of dollars in perfecting that area of my business so you, too will get the absolute best quality for your photographs.


•   What kind of camera equipment do you use?  I use a lot of Professional Digital Canon cameras and lenses, and I upgrade to better ones all the time.    Mamiya RB67 Pro-S Camera (and specialty lenses!), which will produce highest quality Medium Format known to professional photographers.   I have specialty filters from B & W, Metz Flashes (definitely the best for weddings, bar none!)   And, I use only professional films and products for my clientele'.   As well as professional imaging services.
