Question 1

How far in advance should we book you for our wedding?

Accepted Answer

Typically, couples book me about 13 months before their wedding date. I encourage you to reach out as soon as possible about my availability, even if you’re planning on a shorter time frame.

Question 2

Will you edit all our pictures?

Accepted Answer

Definitely. All final images will be edited for color, saturation, exposure, and sharpness to ensure they look beautiful. I also offer retouching services like blemish removal and teeth whitening for an additional charge.

Question 3

Do you also offer video services?

Accepted Answer

No, I prefer focusing on photography only, so you can get the best wedding pictures possible. I do recommend video only teams who I work with very often.

Question 4

How many pictures will we get?

Accepted Answer

You can expect about 50 to 80 images per hour of photographing. But keep in mind this estimate varies depending on your wedding package, number of guests, venue type, and other factors.

Question 5

How long will it take to see our pictures?

Accepted Answer

My turnaround time varies by season. Typically, you’ll be able to view your photos online about 2-5 weeks after your wedding. Within this time, you can also expect to receive a password protected online gallery link with high-resolution image files, so you can share the photos with your loved ones and order prints.

Question 6

Do you have insurance?

Accepted Answer

I do! Just let me know if your venue requires a certificate of liability, and I’ll send that over to them.

Question 7

What’s your back-up plan if you can’t photograph our wedding as planned?

Accepted Answer

In my 18 years of experience as a wedding photographer, I’ve never cancelled a booking. In the very rare event that I’m unable to photograph your wedding, I’ll make sure you’re covered by one of my colleagues or my contracted assistant who has been trained by me to shoot with the Alina M documentary style.

Question 8

Do you work with assistants or other photographers?

Accepted Answer

Sometimes, I’ll bring one or more assistant photographers depending on the size of your wedding. We will discuss the needs of your wedding and decide prior to booking if your wedding requires an additional photographer.

Question 9

Do you offer FaceTime or telephone consultations prior to booking?

Accepted Answer

Yes absolutely! I encourage a face time so I can meet you and you can see me and ask me anything you want! My dogs Brandy and Gigi may also join if you don’t mind! 🐾🥰 they love to meet new friends!
