FAQ — Classic Wedding Photo in NYC

Our classic wedding photo package covers the entire day — from preparation to first dance (or agreed duration). You’ll receive 300+ fully edited high‑resolution photos in a private online gallery. RAW files are not included by default — because we prioritise delivering polished artwork. If you want all RAWs, we can include them as a custom add‑on; just let us know when booking.
Yes — we’ve shot dozens of weddings across Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island and the NY metro area. We know the quirks of NYC venues: limited natural light in some halls, strict equipment/flash rules, tight spaces, and access limitations. This experience helps us plan shoots smartly, avoid issues and catch the best light even in tricky conditions.
Absolutely. We believe transparency builds trust. After booking (or on request), we’ll share full galleries from past weddings — not just hero shots — so you can see how we handle different scenarios, lighting conditions, group shots, and emotional moments. That way you know exactly what to expect.
We come prepared. We carry backup cameras, lenses, memory cards, batteries, flashes — all duplicates. We’re fully insured and will provide documentation if needed. In rare emergencies (like illness), we rely on a network of experienced associate photographers in NYC to step in and ensure your day is covered. Your memories are never at risk.
We work closely with you (and your planner if you have one) to build a realistic timeline: prep, ceremony, portraits, group photos, reception. We communicate with vendors — officiants, planners, venue staff — to align timing. Our goal: capture key moments smoothly, with minimal posing time, so your day remains natural and enjoyable.
es — we’re used to NYC weather and shifting conditions. Overcast skies often give beautiful soft light; a little drizzle can add mood; for indoor venues we bring lighting equipment. We scout backup locations if needed. Our experience ensures that regardless of weather, your day will be beautifully documented.
