Wedding Photography Faqs
How do you carry out the job?
My style is storytelling photojournalism. Here is an example audio slide show. A typical shooting starts from bride’s breakfast or preparation until the first dance with evening reception.
The camera will be your eyes to follow the whole event of the day to catch anything and everything that happened. Apart from formals, there will be signature shoots between.
Will you edit the photos you take?
I like black and white, sepia, and also a mixture, such as the person in the picture is in full colour and the background is black and white, or if it’s a picture of the cake, then the cake is in full colour and the background is in black and white.

How many pictures will I get?
The exact number of shoots depends on the day and settings, weathers etc. The photographer will professionally work throughout the event on pre-agreed arrangement. All images taken on the day are yours. As a rule of thumb the event starting from bride preparation to evening reception would easily exceed 300.
Post-process of images
Original images are shot in RAW format to preserve the highest quality possible each size is around 7-11Mb. Images in this format is not directly printable.
Our photographers then quickly select, edit and convert the best ones to jpg format and make a dvd preview album, including audio slide. The dvd is then send to client for preview.
Once client decides which photos they would like to include in a photo album, our photographers will discuss the best presentation media and artistic manipulation you would like them to be done and do it on-site with you.
Can I keep the original photos?
A number of the electronic format of the original photos (jpg) are given to the client to keep. The exact number is set as in the packages detail.
Client could purchase additional originals.
The usage of these originals must comply with Rights Management terms.
