Absolutely. Film is critical to my documentation process and is included in every package I offer. It is not an add-on, but rather a pertinent aspect of the storytelling process that compliments my digital work,
If you elect to have me document your wedding photographically, you can expect a mix of 35mm, 120mm, and polaroid film.
If you elect to have me document your wedding on video, you can expect snippets of Super8mm film.
My priority first and foremost is to preserve your elopement or wedding day, not disrupt it. We don't need 4 hours to shoot staged photos. You shouldn't miss your cocktail hour. I aim to shoot roughly 75% of your day documentary style, meaning I simply follow along with the flow of events and let the candid photos and footage occur organically. For the other 25%, you can expect efficient direction from me. The latter is most prominent during parts of the day that require a bit more posing, such as family photos. I am often asked if I still take the "traditional" portraits in addition to the candid photos, and the answer is yes.
I'm incredibly inspired by film and documentary storytelling and my editing reflects this. I prefer true to tone edits that mimic correctly processed film with colors that reflect how the moment felt as we were shooting.
While I sometimes retouch distracting elements in photos and films, I do not "edit out" naturally occurring physical traits,
Couple, maternity, and portrait sessions will be delivered in 2-3 weeks.
Wedding galleries will be delivered in 8-10 weeks. I aim to provide a small preview gallery (approximately one dozen photos) within 72 hours of your wedding).
Wedding films will be delivered in 12-16 weeks.
You can expect about 75 photos per hour of shooting. Galleries include a split of color and black and white photos. I do not provide every edit in color and black and white, as the decision is made at my discretion for stylistic purposes. Requests for additional edits can be accommodated at a price notated in your contract.
Wedding films are roughly 5-8 minutes and include color and black and white footage. If weather and area guidelines permit, you can expect drone/aerial footage. Because music selections are restricted by licensing laws, I am not able to accommodate specific music requests. That said, I assure you that the song selection process is one I spend considerable time on.
