Frequently asked questions

1. how far in advance should we book you?

Most couples book us 9–12 months before their wedding. Popular dates fill quickly, so we recommend reaching out as soon as you have your venue and date secured.

2. do you offer photo-only or video-only packages?

Yes! We offer photography-only, videography-only, and combined collections. Many couples love having both together since it keeps the style consistent and the day seamless, but you’re welcome to choose what fits best for your story.

3. how do we officially book you?

Once you decide we’re the right fit, we’ll send over a proposal and contract. A signed agreement and a 30% retainer officially reserve your date. After that, we’re locked in!

4. what's your approach on a wedding day?

We blend a documentary style with gentle guidance when needed. Most of the day we’re capturing candid, real moments as they unfold, but we’ll step in with direction during portraits to make sure you look and feel your best.

5. how many photos will we receive?

Every wedding is unique, but most couples receive 600–900 fully edited images, depending on your coverage. We carefully select the best moments so you have a complete story without feeling overwhelmed.

6. what's included in the wedding film?

Our highlight films are typically 5–7 minutes long and include the most meaningful moments of your day. You can also add full edits of your ceremony, toasts, or first dances if you’d like those preserved in their entirety.

7. how long will it take to get our photos and video?

You’ll receive sneak peeks within a week, your full gallery within 12 weeks, and your film within 16 weeks. We take the time to craft everything carefully so it feels timeless, not rushed.

8. do you travel for weddings?

Absolutely! We love capturing love stories in new places. Travel within Southern California is included, and we’re happy to customize travel packages for destination weddings.

9. what happens if you get sick or can't make it?

We’ve never missed a wedding, but if something beyond our control ever happened, we have a trusted network of professional photographers and videographers we can call on. Your memories will always be taken care of.

10. do you have insurance?

Yes. We carry professional liability and equipment insurance, which many venues require. You’re in safe hands.
