HOW DO WE CHOOSE A LOCATION FOR SCENIC SHOTS?

During our introductory call, we’ll delve into your preferences and expectations for the perfect location. We’ll cover aspects such as your vibe, comfort with hiking, tolerance for heights, and your personal preference for your ideal spot (sandy beach vs. a rocky shore, forests, dramatic landscapes, etc.).

To assist you in making an informed decision, I will provide you with a very comprehensive and visual location guide. This guide includes examples from previous photoshoots at each spot, accompanied by brief descriptions detailing factors such as hike duration and the diversity that each location offers.

 

IS AN ELOPEMENT RIGHT FOR US?


Eloping is not for everyone, just as big weddings are not suited to all. Nowadays, eloping doesn’t imply a lack of planning for the special details that can make your day memorable and unique. From dream wedding attire to your favorite flowers, select VIP guests, and even a first dance – you can tailor your day to suit your desires. However, it’s important to carefully consider your wishes and ensure they are sensible for you, your partner, and any special individuals you want to include.

PROS AND CONS OF ELOPING

Pros:

  • No stress of a large event; invite only those who truly matter
  • Exchange vows in privacy, surrounded by nature
  • Avoid wedding drama
  • Save money and indulge without compromises
  • Combine wedding and honeymoon
  • Environmentally friendly choice
  • The day is entirely about you
  • Choose traditional or non-traditional elements as you please
  • Have a ceremony in a location not feasible for a large wedding
  • It promises adventure!

Cons:

  • Limited guests
  • If you’ve always dreamed of a big wedding
  • No venue for a dance party
  • If your partner is not on board
  • VIPs you want may not be able to attend

 

HOW DO WE BOOK YOUR SERVICES AND HOW FAR IN ADVANCE?

First and foremost, let’s chat! Building rapport and determining if we’re the right fit is crucial. Following our discussion, you’ll receive my photography contract along with a request for a 50% booking deposit. Once these formalities are settled, your event date will be secured in my calendar. Subsequently, we’ll schedule a video chat to delve into the finer details such as style preferences, planning logistics, expectations, shot lists, and considerations like first looks or opting out.

It’s advisable to secure your booking sooner rather than later. Dates you inquire about remain tentative until the booking process is finalized. 

 

 

WHAT IF YOU FALL ILL AND CAN’T ATTEND MY EVENT?

Firstly, let’s hope for the best! Throughout my photography career, I’ve only missed one non-wedding scheduled session due to illness. However, unforeseen circumstances can arise. In the unlikely event that I’m unable to attend your wedding, I will promptly reach out to my network of comparable photographers. Any payments or deposits made to me will seamlessly transfer to the replacement photographer.
