YOUR QUESTIONS

For the Nostalgic, Storyteller, CURIOSITY and Cinema Lovers

FAQ

  1. THE SERVICE

  • Cinematic narrative and emotional. We always try to achieve a beautiful story with thousands of images for you to create your own version of your big day.

  • We are based in Europe during the summer and Mexico during the winter. We do travel a lot with my work, and we do LOVE IT. We travel pretty much every single weekend to meet couples and their families.

  • Yes, we do (Europe, Asia, America, and North Africa). It is always a pleasure for me to travel.

  • Of course. Explaining the full day of a story is really important to us and the best way to show the day what you will remember for the rest of your days.

  • That is totally the kind of event we love to cover; they are small and more personal.

  • 99% of my time, we cover weddings and sessions for couples. But we can occasionally cover different kinds of events. Please let me know what your inquiry is with details, and we will answer you quickly.

  • Our goal is to produce a full wedding day narrative from getting ready to 7/8 dances in the evening.

  • After sending your first email, we will send you a link to a private section of our website to learn more about our vision, framing, philosophy of work, and, of course, pricing. Then we will organize a virtual call. If you are happy with your choice and make us your photographer, a deposit will be paid and a contract will be signed between us.

  • We get asked a million times this question; most of our couples are very camera shy. We believe they simply don’t know how beautiful they can be in front of the camera, and our job is to take as many natural casual images of you enjoying your day. And yes, between these natural moments, we will have some posed ones, but our posing process is very simple. Just trust us and everything will go as planned.

2. DESTINATION WEDDINGS

  • We currently live in Porto, Portugal, and Bari, Italy. Also during the winter we stay in Mexico, but I love to travel everywhere. We also have a bucket list. If you are getting married in one of those specific places (ISRAEL, GREECE, MONGOLIA, INDIA, JORDAN, KENYA, EGYPT, SOUTH AFRICA, MONTENEGRO, ICELAND, or NEPAL), you may have a discount if 2 conditions are agreed upon (allowing me to shoot a session with you after the wedding day (2 hours) and be as easygoing as we are.

  • We would have to ask you for extra fees to pay our own booking for Stay, Car Rental, and Travel. The price depends on the location and time of the season. We will send you a quote and see if we can work together. If by chance we are already in the same country, we would have to make some plans.

  • As international wedding photographers, we are able to travel around Europe and wherever you wish. We would like to discuss with you and talk about your big day. WhatsApp is always switched on.

3. YOUR SESSION

  • Most of our packages include a welcome dinner; we may have to challenge you to do something unique and realistic. We want you to have a pleasant time and talk with you. If your wedding is abroad, we will discuss it during your virtual conversation or around a good cup of coffee.

  • It depends on you; to be honest, of course, we have plenty of ideas, but you are free to ask for everything, everywhere, every time. Just let us know if you have any ideas for the session. If you do not know, we can provide some examples of what we can do.

  • The best way is to discuss the session in a meeting. To know what we can create together. It can be for an engagement session or a trash the dress session of course. We will probably try to challenge you to do something unusual. Do something you will remember.

4. YOUR WEDDING

  • We share with all our couples a little guidance page to offer the best service ever. It may give you more ideas about how to realize the best photograph for your special day. Do not take it very personally, it is just the result of many years of experience. Anyway, it does not have to be respected as a 100% requirement. It is just common sense.

  • It depends on you; to be honest, of course, we have plenty of ideas, but you are free to ask for everything, everywhere, every time. Just let us know if you have any ideas for the session. If you do not know, we can provide some examples of what we can do.

  • I usually wear dark jeans and a black shirt; I also wear a black T-shirt or shirt. I run and move a lot, taking different angles, even sometimes being on my knees and on the ground. A pair of trousers have a short life duration with me. If you require a specific dress code, please keep me informed before the wedding day.

  • The part of my work is to cover group pictures and a couple of pictures. I will provide the perfect work if you allow me to have those pictures. I usually request 15 minutes after the ceremony and 15 minutes when the sunset is coming. I do not need more. Please consider this time a perfect time to relax and spend minutes/hours with your loved one.

    Of course, I do cover group images, but the massive difference is that I always try to find the best background, the most unique way to make the group shots more creative

  • It really depends on you. Some weddings are quite big, and the family enjoys planning to do group pictures. We like to ask the bride and groom to prepare a list to follow for this time. For that, we can do group pictures as fast as we can. It leaves more time for you to share the big day with your friends and families. For the couple pictures, we like to plan it just after the group pictures; that's a perfect time for you to have a breath of fresh air just as husband and wife. It is not a long session, by the way. Just 10/15 minutes just with you and me. We like as well to plan another session for the Sunset, We can create another atmosphere and the light is totally different. So 10 minutes is a good option as well for this second session.

5. YOUR ELOPEMENT

  • We share with all our couples a little guidance page to offer the best service ever. It may give you more ideas about how to realize the best photograph for your special day. Do not take it very personally, it is just the result of many years of experience. Anyway, it does not have to be respected as a 100% requirement. It is just common sense.

  • Choose your dream location, your favorite country, and the place you have seen or dreamt of when you were little. For some, it would be on the beach, at the top of the mountain, in the forest. Just make your elopement memorable.

  • It all depends on the country, but generally, you need to make sure to have a marriage certificate and permits to get married in that part of the world you have chosen.

  • I have prepared an article to clarify all your questions about it. HERE
