The Process
Step 1
We Chat! We prefer to schedule a call either by phone or zoom to get to know each other a bit before we move forward in the process. We love it when you ask a lot of questions so make sure you bring them to your consultation!
During this call, we discuss your vision, your wants and needs out of your Photography and Videography, what's most important to you out of your day, and most importantly how you both met! We'll also tell you about ourselves so you get a feel for the people capturing your wedding day! You can't get this day back so it's so important we connect on the same level!
Step 2
After our call, We send you a proposal based on your needs and the options discussed during our chat!
Then we wait!
We give you some time to consider your options as this is a major investment! You MUST be comfortable with whoever is behind the camera and 100% sure who you want capturing your wedding day. Otherwise, you could get back photos you don't 100% love and nobody wants that! You only get awkward photos if you feel awkward with the person behind the camera.
Step 3
You decided to move forward! That's amazing and We're so excited to be working with you!
Now that we're a team we schedule your engagement session to help you get even more comfortable with us and in front of the camera.
Then we work on your timeline and other vendors if you need help finding them! We're here to help your wedding day be as smooth as possible because it can be very overwhelming if you don't know where else to start! We set up 2 consultation calls or in-person meetings to go over everything. First about 6 months before your wedding date and the second about 6 weeks before for finalizations to your timeline!
Finally lets create some magic!
