"Alicia and Corey, what will it be like with you as our photographers on our wedding day?"
We help you from the beginning with timeline planning and answer any other questions you may have. We can even help answer any non-photography related questions about your wedding as well. With our years of experience you will feel confident knowing you can trust us to cover everything. You shouldn't need to stress about your photography.
We have been photographing weddings together for over a decade so we have a great system. In fact, we barely even have to talk to eachother at weddings - we already know what eachother is looking for based on body language. This helps us be super stealthy - think "ninja stealthy". We strive to be unobtrusive on your wedding day.
During the ceremony we will talk to the officient before it begins and then we will move around quietly, capturing all the special moments. We will be photographing your day from all angles and you will rarely see us in the same area. Alicia focuses on the more "up close, in your face" photographs and Corey focuses on the "authentic and candid" moments from a distance. In all honesty, some people forget Corey is even around.
Family photographs are always organized and quick. Alicia has this one down to a science. She will quickly pose, check and photograph each group you want. This will not be painful for anyone and since we start with the biggest group we will end up with just the two of you!
Did we mention that we also snag you away for formals with just the two of you? It's a chance to take a breath and spend time together as a married couple. Sometimes, we even take you out again right before sunset for amazing golden hour photographs (best lighting of the day)!
Common Questions
Do you bring backup gear? Yes! We bring so much backup gear that we could have another person shooting and we would still have extra. Every wedding we bring an extra bodies, lenses, batteries, flashes and anything else we need. In otherwords, we overpack just to be safe.
How long after the wedding do I receive my images?
You will get a preview of your images within a week of the wedding and the final images will be delivered within 90 days (but we always strive for earlier)!
What is your editing style?
Alicia does all the editing as she is a professional photo editor/graphic designer. She does not batch process (editing them all the same way using a "batch" - this is quicker but it edits every photo the same and to us, each photo is unique). Instead she hand edits every image, time consuming but worth it. Her editing style is true to colour with a hint of warm tones. Do you deliver raws?
Nope. You will recieve jpeg images in web and high res formats. Raw images are an unfinished product - it would be like handing you a canvas with an outline and you have to paint it.
What rights do I have?
We do shared rights, so you can print and share whatever you want and in turn, we will use some of your images for our portfolio. That being said we never post family images from weddings and we don't share your names.
Where do I print my photos?
You can ask us for local places to print your photographs or you can talk to us about printing through a professional lab.
How are my photo's delivered?
Your preview images will be delivered through a private online gallery and your final images will be delivered on a usb. If your wedding is small enough we can deliver online instead of usb.
If some of the photographs delivered are black and white can you change them back to colour?
Alicia decides which images will be edited in colour, black and white or special edits. If an image is in black and white it usually means that it didn't reach her high standards in color, but still looks great in black and white. We decide to include these rather then omit them. Extra images for you - win, win right?
How long have you been shooting weddings? How many weddings have you photographed?
We both started shooting weddings around 2010 and we started working as a team in 2011. We have photographed over 50 weddings together.
How many other events will you photograph that weekend?
None! In fact, we take on a limited number of weddings per year and never more then one a month. This is to ensure we are completely focused on your wedding from planning to editing.
