Wedding Timeline
Serious version (scroll down for humorous version)
You get engaged. Congratulations to you both!!!
You found us and you enjoy our work.
We discuss your needs and show you more examples of our work. You like our photography and decided to book us. If we are in your area we discuss a time for your complimentary engagement session. If we aren’t in your area the session is still complimentary, but travel expenses are not. We discuss all the details of your wedding and what sort of images you want.
A week or two before the wedding we get in touch to confirm all details.
On the wedding day:
Your job is to live it up and enjoy yourself. Our job is to arrive bright and early to photograph you getting ready and all the little details. We capture the day as it unfolds, photographing all the wonderful moments and interactions that take place throughout the day. We get fantastic photographs of all the splendid joy you experience along with the moments you may miss. At a point convenient to you we go out and capture the most beautiful portraits of the two of you in love. You have never looked better, you’ve never been happier, and the photographs are timeless. We photograph you, and your loved ones living it up at the reception and on the dance floor.
The night is over and we say goodbye.
Approximately 4-6 weeks later you have an private online gallery to view. If you wish share the password your friends and family may view the album as well. Prints and image downloads are available from the site.
We discuss your ideas for your hand made album. You choose which of your images you want in your album.
We personally design your bespoke album and send you a online proof to get your final approval.
Your wedding album arrives and its absolutely stunning. Every time you open it you relive how wonderful your day was.
Timeline
(humorous and sarcastic version)
You get engaged. He finally proposed! You thought it would never happen! Congratulations to you both!!!
You found us somewhere and are captivated by our photos and dying to get to know us and become our friends. We arrange to meet up.
We meet for coffee and you see samples of our work. You find us fun, witty, charming and are amazed by the creativity of our spectacular images. You are really excited and book us immediately, throwing money at us and offering us the keys to your vacation home in Fiji and offering us your private (eco-friendly) jet to get there. You are equally impressed by our sense of imagination on the wedding timeline. Or perhaps you have no other choice to book us as every other wedding photographer in the world is either booked or unwilling to travel on the day you chose to get married. Once you book your wedding with us we discuss a time for your complimentary engagement session. We meet up, go somewhere interesting and everyone has a fabulous time. By the end of the engagement session we are best friends forever and you get some fun and creative photos which you get put up on billboards all over your city.
A week or two before the wedding we get in touch to confirm all details, you can’t wait for your wedding day.
On the wedding day:
You have fun. Its your job, and you have no choice but to comply. Our job is also fun but its more serious as well. We arrive bright and early to photograph you getting ready and all the wonderful little details. We capture the day as it unfolds, photographing all the fantastically wonderful moments and interactions that take place between you and your loved ones. We get photographs of all the remarkably splendid fun you are apart of along with any moments you may miss. At a point convenient to you both we go on a walk and capture the two of you in love, which just so happens to be the most beautiful portraits ever. You have never looked more gorgeous/handsome, you’ve never been so overwhelmed with joy, and the photographs are timeless. We go back in with everyone else and photograph you, your friends, and your family living it up at the reception.
The night is over and we say goodbye. There are a lot of tears, and you don’t want to say goodbye, but you realize life is unfair and we have to go home and start editing your photos and you must now go and consummate the marriage.
A 4-6 weeks later you have an private online gallery to view. You love them, and we love that you love them. Essentially just lots and lots of lovely love floating about. If you wish to give the password out your friends and family may view the album as well. Prints and image downloads are available from the site to anyone with a credit card.
We have a lovely conversation about what you want for your hand made album. You choose the images for your album and there are so many you like its as if you are being forced to choose your favorite child – but in a good way.
We personally design your bespoke album and send you a online version to get your final approval. You jump for joy and marvel at combination of fantastic photography and superior design and can’t wait to see it your hands. We send it to be printed.
Your wedding album arrives and its absolutely stunning. It literally takes your breath away and you have to go on oxygen whenever you view the album. The album’s beauty is only surpassed by how stunning and joyful the two of you look in it. Happiness and love hearts all around as you relive your wedding day every time you look through it.
You write us an amazing review telling the world how happy you were with us and that anyone getting married should not even consider anyone else as their photographer.
We arrange a trash the dress session. Again you are amazed at how much fun it is getting your picture taken, even while rolling around in the mud/water/field/hay or even riding an elephant.
Later we photograph your children as they grow and eventually their weddings. Time passes and we all retire…happily ever after and best friends throughout eternity.
