Wedding Day Timelines:

I am flexible in this area, it is your day and you decide your own wedding day timeline.  This is a guideline and can be revised if needed.  It is ideal to start your photography session two hours prior to the ceremony time.  During this time we photograph the bridal gown, the bride getting into her dress and last minute touch-ups on her hair and makeup.  Once ready, we photograph the bride alone, her with her bridesmaids and important family and friends.  Keeping the bride and groom separated - We also follow the same photographing procedure with the groom, his groomsmen, family and friends.  Once these portraits are complete, it is usually very close to ceremony time.  We then photograph the ceremony.  After the ceremony we photograph the Bride and Groom with their family units, bridal party and as a couple.  Depending on the size of the bridal families and the bridal party itself, these group portraits usually take 30-45 minutes to complete.  Once these portraits are complete, we move on into the reception for the allotted amount of time defined in the wedding package chosen.  At the reception, we capture the special events, food and guests as time permits.  Additional Time is $120.00 per hour and is calculated in 1 hour increments.   Additional time payment is due at wedding.

Your portrait proofs will be ready to upload to your private on-line gallery within 2-4 weeks following the Event date.  Once your final payment is received, your portraits will be uploaded and viewable.  The uploading processes usually takes 24 to 48 hours - excluding weekends.  Portrait and Album orders are available for pick-up within 6-8 weeks of placing the order.  Delays WILL occur during busy sessions and holidays.
