FAQs

I use full-frame digital cameras, with a variety of lenses, to achieve desired looks.  I also have a variety of remote flashes, strobes, and other du-dads, such as Bubble Guns!!!  

But of course!  No need to worry, I’m covered.  

Events taking place outside of RI, and Boston MA will incur a travel fee, typically covering accommodations and/or transportation (gas, tolls, airfare, car rental, etc). If you’re unsure, feel free to contact us, and I’ll be happy to provide you with an estimate.  I only request accommodations for anything over an hour and a half drive from Providence, as that’s an extra 3 hours onto an already long day.  

Of course, you can!  To boot, I’d be happy to deduct the cost of your session if you choose to also hire me for your wedding in the future! 

You’re free to do whatever you’d like! Because it is a complimentary service that I provide, there are no cost-savings that I can offer clients who wish to skip the session altogether.

I understand! life happens.  I allow my clients to reschedule up to two times with no penalty, and within my availability.  That’s up to 3 dates total, for any reason.  Literally any reason, before your session, is forfeited.  Events, and Weddings, may not be rescheduled.  Beyond 3 reschedules, will be determined on a case-by-case basis. 

As much as I would like to say no, the reality is that most private properties, parks, and landmarks require permits of some kind.  Clients are responsible for acquiring all required permits for their sessions, and or events.  

Overtime charges are considered on a case to case basis.  However, I can typically have all deliverable images within the 10 hour time frame.  

Tips are always welcomed, but not necessary.  However, if I have additional members on the crew, such as a grip assistant, or associate photographer, I strongly recommend, and encourage that they receive a tip!

Although not required, a warm meal is greatly appreciated for full day events.  The photography team is very active throughout the day, running around, carrying heavy equipment.  If meals are not provided after 6 hours of work, we reserve the right to take an hour break off site, to go get a meal.  We are not liable for any missed moments during this break.  If you do provide a meal, it’s best to do this as your guest are being fed.  No one likes having photos taken while putting food in their mouths.  The photography team doesn’t like to sit around hungry, watching others eat, either.  The benefits are that we will be available to hop up, and capture a spontaneous moment that often happen during meal service. 

The main package is for just 1 photographer, me, along with a grip assistant to help set up lighting, and carry items for the photographer.  This ensures I’m free to take shots, instead of wasting time setting up the gear.  This is good for events of 120 people or less.  If you have more than 120 guest, ask me about  options to hire a 2nd photographer. 

I’m not a videographer.  I’ve been dabbling with making short highlight reels, but it’s not a part of the official package that I offer.  You may end up with a nice two-minute reel with your asset delivery, but it’s not a guarantee.  If you are looking for a videographer, please feel free to ask me for a recommendation.  

If I missed an important question that you have, please feel free to reach out to me by my contact page, and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can with an answer!
