FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My wedding packages typically start at $1000 and go up to $2500, but I am always willing to discuss my clients' needs and find something that works for them.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I typically like to get the dates booked as soon as possible by email or phone to secure the date. Wedding dates get booked well in advance, so I like to ensure that is nailed down. I send a contract by email for the client to sign, and the deposit (if required) is due at that time as well. For weddings, I will provide a questionnaire closer to the wedding date itself to get details about that day. This helps me to plan and have a timeline to ensure complete coverage. I understand, some people want to meet face to face prior to booking and I am more than happy to do that!
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I apprenticed with several professional photographers in the beginning of my photography career. I watched and did some light editing. Later in my career, after I had significant experience under my belt, I began "second shooting" which is when there is another lead photographer responsibile for the most important photos and I would provide additional coverage. After doing this for a year or so, I began doing weddings as lead photographer. I have worked for several major photography companies here in San Antonio prior to owning my own company. I now bring an assistant to most of my jobs to help pass along what I have learned. Paying it forward :)
