Album and images delivered

When all is said and done and you've recovered from such a perfect night it will be time for the pictures to be delivered. Your pictures should not live on your computer or a usb you can easily lose. Your wedding day deserves a tangible product you can hold. As your parents had their wedding album so will you. That is why all our collections include them because we know the value of history and a timeless keepsake. There's just something about albums that connects you to the past and the future at the same time.

frequently asked questions

FAQs

You wouldn't accept flour, eggs, and milk when you asked your baker for a cake. Likewise, the RAW files are incomplete works of art and for this reason we will never deliver the RAW files as they do not represent our completed body of work. They are also massive!

do you provide the unedited raw image files?

With so many event spaces in Chicago of course there will be times where I haven't shot at your venue but that's where my research background comes into play. I make sure that I tour each venue beforehand to make sure that I know all the nooks and crannies in time for your wedding.

YOU HAVEN'T SHOT AT MY VENUE. IS THAT A PROBLEM?

There are only a few weekend days out of the year so it's highly recommended once you have secured your venue to start inquiring about photo coverage at least 6 months in advance.

How far in advance do i need to book my date?

Think documentary with a hint of fun directional posing. Whether you already know how to pose because camera is life or you've only ever taken selfies, I've got you covered. The more focused you are on each other the more natural your photos look.

how would you describe your photography style?

If it's an engagement session we can change dates until the weather is agreeable. We can also change the location of the shoot to an indoor location so we are protected from the elements.

what if there is bad weather for our session?

Of course! If you don't need everything and the kitchen sink we offer mini wedding packages for our couples with smaller, more intimate celebrations. Whether it's you, your partner, and officiant or you and 10 of your closest family members for a couple hours we can accommodate you. Just ask for our mini wedding collections.
