Frequently Asked Questions

Can we meet before the wedding day ?

Establishing a great connection with my clients is paramount to being able to capture amazing photographs, so having some sort of contact beyond email is a prerequisite before booking me as your photographer. I want to make sure you're 100% confident that I'm the right photographer for you and that you'll feel comfortable having me around on such a monumental day in your life.

Do you travel ?

Yup ! I've shot all around the province and even outside. I'm always down for an adventure, especially if being on an adventure is meaningful to you.

When will we get the edited photos ?

The turnaround time for the edited wedding gallery is around 6-8 weeks, depending on my current editing queue.

​

Wedding season usually peaks around June and December, so weddings on this month may take a bit longer.

Do you photograph weddings with a second photographer?

Most of the time, I do shoot by my own since I do my best work that way but there are definitely times when a second photographer is really useful. Whenever logistically it would be impossible to have a coverage in two places at once, when the guest list is 100+, or anytime you just want that extra coverage.

Also, it does help me become more productive and creative. It's also another creative perspective to your wedding day.

How much is the deposit to book ?

In order to book, I require a non-refundable retainer fee of 25% of the package rate. This along with a signed contract will secure your date and I will turn away all other potential wedding or business inquiries for your wedding date.

Do you provide the RAW, Unedited files ?

Unfortunately, no. The raw, unedited files are not included or typically delivered. This would be similar to asking your florist for the stems that were trimmed off.

​

Any photos that are not edited or delivered are either redundant (exact duplicates) or outtakes - like out of focus images, test shots, unflattering images, random shots of my shoes, behind the scene photos, etc.

How many photos will we get ?

I deliver every single photo that I edit, but not every single photo that I take. On average, the final edited gallery for a wedding usually has 350 to 600 photos.

​

The final image count depends on how much "action" happens on your wedding day, the number of formal photos, schedule, etc.

Do you make custom packages?

My packages are base rates with the ability to add on extra hours, products, photographers, etc. Most events that I photograph end up with a custom package of some sort.

What if I'm a photographer and want to edit them... ?

If it is really important to you and you really must have the raw, unedited files, then this would require (1) an additional fee of 5,000 Php and (2) a signed non-disclosure agreement stating that you will not tie any of the images that you edited back to me or my photography business.
