There is no need to give us a shot list. We like to have creative freedom with shots.

We are well versed in capturing all the other standard shots.

What happens if we go over the contracted amount of hours?

Since we’ve dedicated the entire day to your wedding, we won’t be having to race off to another event. We understand that not everything goes a planned during a wedding day. We touch base 15min prior to the end time to see if you’d like to extend. If you’d like us to stay, we’d be more than happy to do so, it would be the prorated hourly rate in your contract.
Q
What if it rains?
A
If it rains on one part of the island, we’ll try and shift the location or the timing of the shoot accordingly.
Q
I don’t have a planner, will you provide location scouting services and timeline recommendations?

Yes, we will help you with the locations and also help with the timeline to ensure the best possible light for your photos.

A 50% deposit and signed contract is required in order to get your wedding day on the calendar. Two weeks prior to your wedding, the remainder of the balance is due.
