Caleb: Sandwiches.
Q. WE ARE GETTING MARRIED/PLANNING A SESSION OVERSEAS/OUTSIDE OF THE MIDWEST. HOW MUCH DOES IT COST FOR YOU TO TRAVEL?
Fantastic question! We really love to travel and have been lucky enough to photograph some amazing weddings in some pretty incredible locations. To continue traveling we try and keep our travel costs as economical as possible, but they usual entail helping cover a few nights accommodation. WE LOVE traveling and have been known to be very generous.
Q. CAN YOU HELP ME WITH MY WEDDING TIMELINE & FINDING A FLORIST, HAIR/MAKE-UP ARTIST, VIDEOGRAPHER, GETTING READY LOCATION, ETC.?
Absolutely!! We will talk extensively about your wants, wishes, and plans in regards to photographing in the best lighting conditions and capturing all the events throughout your celebration. No matter the outline of your day, please know that we are more than happy to help create a workable schedule for you. We are also more than happy to refer our peers in the industry to make your wedding day amazing!
Q. THERE ARE SO MANY PHOTOGRAPHERS OUT THERE! – – HOW DO I CHOOSE?
Our advice, go with your gut! Take a good look through the portfolios of the photographers you like and see which one speaks to your emotions the most. Do you like our photos? Do our photos make you FEEL something? Did you read our ABOUT section? Did that seem to sit well with you? We will have several weeks before your session or months before your wedding day to build a strong relationship. For our wedding clients; we will be with you all day on your wedding day, so trust me when we say, we want you to like us, even better, we want to become your FRIENDS.
Q. WHY ARE YOU PHOTOGRAPHERS?
We still can not easily put into words how much we love photography, but here goes. . .
It truly is a hybrid of things. We love photographing human emotion & interactions.
We love learning and capturing the emotions that come with the journey prior to the actual wedding day or family session.
We love getting a look into other people’s lives. We love watching people interact with each other.
We love learning what people cherish most.
We love witnessing and documenting the extraordinary and happy times & the sad and stressful times equally; we just love all of the emotions that fuel every moment.
