Planning the wedding photography for your wedding day is very important, and there are a lot of factors to consider, so we hope these frequently asked questions give you some helpful advice!

How soon before your wedding should you enquire or hire us?

You should make an enquiry with us as soon as you decide on a wedding date and have booked your ceremony and/or reception venue, and the majority of our couples book 8-15 months from their wedding date. Keep in mind that the summer months in Sydney are very popular for weddings and they will book out much eariler than the somewhat cooler times of the year. We are at our busiest between September and April, so if you are planning a wedding during this time and like what we do it's best to contact us early.

What is the advantage of hiring a professional wedding photographer?

It's not just having a good camera, it is many years of experience and developing an 'eye' that has been honed to capture moments that pass in an instant. As such we have an intimate knowledge of our equipment and the wedding day that a non-professional will never have. It is also the post capture and processing work that we provide, as well as printing and album design that makes a professional service an essential part of your wedding day. As a member of the AIPP, you can be assured of receiving the highest quality in service and photographs.

How does the pricing or packages work?

We believe we offer simple wedding packages that will cater to a wide range of tastes and budgets, and don't have any hidden or surprise costs. Start by assessing how much coverage you think you will need over the day (eg preparations, ceremony, location photos, reception), and then decide on either a medium or large size album. And that's it! All other choices and extras can be made or added at any time before or after the wedding.

We offer Coverage Only packages and Album Inclusive wedding package options. Our albums are hand made to the highest standards by Australia's best album makers and you can choose from variety of traditional mat wedding albums and modern looking magazine style (flush mount) albums. A number of extras can be added to your albums, such as panaromic flush mounts, flip pages, cover inlays, an album carry case, and more.

We also offer parent albums, prints, enlargements, canvas prints, DVD slides shows, mounted and framed photos. You name it, we can do it - just contact us for a customised wedding photography package.

How do we book a date?

We require a 20% booking fee and a signed contract to confirm a date. Payment can be made by cash (in person), cheque, bank transfer, or credit card (3.5% fee applies).

How many pages do the albums have?

Our current packages include albums with 10 pages (=20 sides) and additional pages can be added after the wedding or pre-purchased for good savings. Most of our clients add pages to the standard 10 page album for a better coverage and a fuller story telling of their wedding day. For more album information please click here.

How soon after the wedding will our photos and album be ready?

We aim to process your photos within 2 weeks of your wedding and have a selection of the photos online in a web gallery for friends and family to view and order photos. At the same time we post out a disk with all the colour images from the day for you to view. For the album, we like to meet you after the wedding and run through a draft design and discuss the photos you want in the album and the many options for album cover, mat colours, layouts etc. Once you have approved the final album design it takes 6-8 weeks to be made and ready for pick up.

Can we hire a second photographer?

Yes you can! A second photographer is great for getting the best possible coverage of your wedding, especially candid photos, during the ceremony, and the beginning of the reception. Check our extras page for more details on hiring a second shooter.

What do you mean by the high-res images supplied?

I provide a data DVD with a large proportion of all the colour high-res images taken at your wedding and these files can be printed to 8x10" size (~A4) at 300 ppi (unless the original shot has been significantly cropped). All images are subject to my copyright and can only be printed for private use such as prints for yourself, family and friends. If you wish to have prints made that are larger than 8x10" I suggest viewing my print and canvas prices here.
