FAQ & GENERAL QUESTIONS

Please read the following page for a thorough idea of how I work. Once you’ve finished, if you like my idea of a photo shoot and feel it’s in line with your tastes and needs, you can contact me to discuss your special day in detail and request a quote. If you still have doubts or questions you’d like to ask me, please don’t hesitate to contact me directly. I’m happy to help.

WHAT'S YOUR STYLE

Style is something that I develop and continually work on. Over the years it has evolved together with me. The core of what I aim for, however, is truthful, objective, natural photography, that leaves a mark on its viewer. Since I do wedding reportage, I do not pose or otherwise interfere with the flow of the events and my post-production is natural and candid. I work with fleeting moments and raw emotions. I want that my photos tell a story of your wedding by themselves.

DO YOU GUARANTEE YOUR PRESENCE AT THE ACTUAL WEDDING?

A: Absolutely! I wouldn’t miss your wedding for anything! Not even a hurricane

WHAT AREA DO YOU COVER?

"I'm a passionate wedding photographer based in Tuscany, Italy. I have a deep love for capturing love stories and celebrating the beauty of unions through my lens. My eagerness to explore new places knows no bounds. My dedication to the art of photography fuels my desire to travel and capture beautiful moments wherever they may be appreciated."

HOW DO I BOOK?

Like most photographers I get booked up very far in advanced, so please get in touch as soon as possible via my contact page to check my availability. If I’m available, we’ll arrange a time to chat properly before you make a decision about whether to proceed with a booking.

IS THERE A BOOKING FEE?

The booking fee for any wedding package is 25% which is required to reserve your date.

SHOULD WE BOOK AN ENGAGEMENT SHOOT?

Yes!
Most people feel apprehensive about getting their photos taken. An engagement shoot gives us a great chance to get to know each other and gives you the chance to start feeling relaxed with me and in front of my camera. Check out my engagement page for more details.

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO GET OUR PHOTOS?

Gallery delivery can take up to 6 weeks but if often delivered well within that time.

Shooting any wedding is only 10% of a good photographer’s work. The other 90% is in post-production. This includes culling all those images with half eyes shut or unflattering expressions, followed by a careful edit of each individual image. I create an online gallery with your final collection of images. Whilst I hate keeping people waiting, I truly believe that quality is more important than speed.

If you’ve booked a second photographer, I also edit their work to ensure all your photographs are in keeping with my style.

SHOULD WE BOOK A SECOND PHOTOGRAPHER

Second photographers are useful if you’re having a big wedding (130+ guests) because it’s impossible for me to capture all the fun at larger weddings.
They also provide a different perspective at the ceremony and just generally mean we can capture more amazing shots.

During the more formal family photos my second shooter can be off capturing your guests having fun – moments you might otherwise miss

Finally, because there’s two of us, we split up to capture all those pre-wed nerves and excitement and are therefore able to tell the story of both of you getting ready, the morning of your wedding.

WHAT HAPPENS IF WE GO OVER THE CONTRACTED AMOUNT OF TIME?

I understand that not everything goes as planned during a wedding. I never pack up before the contracted time, and moreover, I'm not leaving on the dot when the contracted time is up. Instead, i will ask you at the end of your contracted time whether or not you would like to extend. If you would like us to stay, i will charge the rates specified in your contract rounded to the closest 30-minute increment.

WHAT ARE YOUR PRICES?

The prices are tailored to your needs, so the best thing to do is to get in touch with me and I’ll get back to you with a quote. In the meantime here is the breakdown of my packages.

WHAT IS THE FINAL PRODUCT THAT YOU PROVIDE?

What you get in the end is an online gallery with a selection of your wedding photos ready to share with friends, family and guests. If you wish, you can also add prints and a photo album to your order. Most importantly, though, you will receive an abundance of beautiful memories to look back at.
