Questions and answers
How much does a photography service cost?
The cost of the wedding photography service varies depending on several factors: the date and duration of the event, the location, the number of guests, the presence of additional services, etc. Please contact me to check the availability of your date, and I will send you a personalized quote.
I'm not sure how to pose for photos. Can you help me?
Posing in front of the camera might feel a bit intimidating at first, but I’ll be there to guide you with tips and directions during the photo session, making the experience more natural and enjoyable.
How can I book a photography service?
You can get in touch with me using the 'Contact Me' form at the bottom of the page, via Instagram DM, or by sending me a message on WhatsApp. If your date is available, we can discuss the details, establish the service cost, and proceed to sign the contract. The date will be reserved after the deposit is paid.
When will the photos be ready?
The photos will be delivered within a maximum period of two months from the wedding date.
How many photos will I receive?
The average number of photos ranges around 60 photos per hour. So, from a 10-hour service, you’d typically receive around 600 photos. However, in some situations, the quantity might be larger. This varies depending on the size and liveliness of your wedding.
How many photos will be edited?
I perform color correction on all delivered photos and detailed retouching for all of the main portraits. Detailed retouching involves removing temporary imperfections like blemishes or dark circles that might appear before the wedding due to heightened emotions. I do not make changes that would render the person unrecognizable; I aim to handle this task with great delicacy.
Can I select the photos myself?
Photo selection is a significant part of my work, along with editing; it defines my photographic style. For this reason, I tend to handle this task myself. If you choose me as your photographer, I ask you to trust my taste and artistic vision.
Do you also deliver the original pictures?
The photographer defines their style through processing the raw photos; usually, this is the main reason why you choose them. Therefore, I do not deliver the original files, as I consider them to be for the photographer’s use only.
Do you shoot with natural lighting?
I use both natural lighting and flash/continuous lighting depending on the situation.
How can I get photos of the same quality as those in your portfolio?
I suggest organizing the wedding day to be comfortable for everyone, aiming to optimize timing. Allocate at least an hour for the couple’s photoshoot. The final result depends on everyone’s contribution, not just the photographer’s.
What is the duration of the service?
The duration of the service varies depending on the chosen package, but it’s always possible to extend it for an additional cost.
How will I receive the photos?
I deliver the photos through a refined private online gallery. It’s a convenient, fast, and up-to-date method that allows you to download the photos with a simple click on any device and easily share them with your loved ones.
What would we do if it rained or snowed?
When we discuss the shooting details, we always consider the possibility of rain and prepare an alternative plan for an indoor shoot. If you prefer, we can also opt for capturing photos in the rain. Anyway, I always carry a white umbrella, which can be a useful accessory in case of a rainy photoshoot.
What photographic equipment do you use?
My photographic equipment consists of 2 full-frame cameras, the Sony a7 IV and Sony a7 III, along with several lenses: Sony 50mm 1.2, Sigma 24-70mm 2.8, Tamron 70-180mm 2.8. I also use two Godox V1 flashes with trigger, a Yongnuo 900 LED panel and a photographic torch for creating artistic shots.
Do you have a second equipment set?
Yes, I always carry at least two cameras and plenty of spare memory cards and batteries. This way, in case of any malfunction, I can continue the service without interruptions.
Is there a contract to sign?
Absolutely, signing the contract is essential as it prevents any misunderstandings and safeguards the rights of both involved parties.
Are you willing to travel for work?
Yes, I work all throughout Italy and I’d be happy to photograph abroad as well.
