​

Most packages also include bonus retouch credits.  What are Retouch credits? Does this mean the rest of my images aren't edited? (yes, they're all edited, retouch credits are a-la-carte additional edits,  This means that you can choose specific detailed edits on specific photos. (Ie: detailed skin cleanup, body reshaping, object removal, etc). I don't like to change faces and bodies unless specifically asked :) Retouch credits are like an insurance policy, a-la-carte custom edits. 

​

​

My editing process:

​

I do a light edit (lightroom edit) on all the images ( I catch a lot of flack in the industry because most don’t give that many images, and especially not edited ). I then go back in and do a more detailed edit (photoshop edit) on the top shots. 

​

The retouch credits are for custom edits, if desired - ie: let’s say you get a strange tan line or huge pimple on the day, or your dress has a rip or wrinkle , or there’s something in the background you don’t like - you can customize your edits to change these more specific things.   I don't change bodies or faces without being asked to - I shouldn't be changing  your measurements, unless requested).

​

I once had a bride who had a rapid weight loss due to illness right before her wedding. This caused her dress to be too loose and the illusion back line became crooked on the dress.  She used her credits to have me digitally straighten the back on ceremony photos ( since you can’t stop a ceremony to straighten a dress ). 

​

How many hours of wedding coverage do I need ?

 

My wedding packages are broken down into hours of coverage. How many hours do you need? Here is a helpful guide of how long things generally take:

 

Getting ready bride: 1 hr ( min) allows for shots of dress hanging, shoes, details, hair, makeup, dress going on, first reactions to bride ( parents/bridesmaids reaction)

 

--travel time--

 

Getting ready groom: 1/2 hr (min). 

When I arrive at the groom's location, the groom& groomsmen are usually already pretty close to getting ready to go. 30 mins allows time for a few getting ready shots - cuff links, rings, details, groom tying tie, etc.

 

--travel time --

 

Ceremony: non religious takes approx 30-45 min 
Religious/ church ceremony: 1 hour.

Receiving line or champagne toasts: can take 30 ish mins. Many couples opt to receive their guests later on.

 

--travel time --

 

Family & formal photos.: 1 - 3 hours. 1 hour of photos will give enough time for quick family photos (20 min) quick bridal party photos (20 min) and bride groom session( 20 min). The more creative & variety that you'd like to see in your photos, the more time you need to allow. The more bridesmaids & groomsmen you have, the longer the group shots will take.

Please also allow travel time if you'd like more than one location for your formal shots. ( Also take into account that wedding season= construction season! Allow time for traffic !)

 

-- travel time back to reception --

 

Speeches, dinner, cake cutting dances: 3-ish hours. This can vary depending on a number of variables. 
- how many speeches ? - are you giving a length guideline for speeches?
- is dinner plated, or a buffet? - how many dances ?

 

Optional - sneak away for golden hour/magic hour. 20-30 mins.

 

Garter bouquet toss: usually happens at least an hour after first dance / bride father dance / groom mother dance

 

Night photography / sparklers: 30 mins.

 

 Common package combinations that I see are as follows ( this is a guide only - you're welcome to build your own combinations of course !)

 

Bride getting ready + groom getting ready + ceremony + formals + dinner/ speeches/ dances + night photography: 10-12 hour day.

 

Bride getting ready on site, ( no groom shots) ceremony, formals, dinner, speeches, cake, first dances ( no garter/ bouquet, no

night/sparkler shots ) : 8 hour day.

 

Bride getting ready+ ceremony+ formals ( no reception shots): 6 hour day.

 

Ceremony + family/formals = 3 hrs or half day packages

 

Small ceremony + 1hr formals = elopement packages
