Asked before booking<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

If yours is not here, phone and ask. We answer these ourselves.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Do you photograph small weddings?<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Yes, and priced as their own package rather than a scaled-down full day. Registry offices, elopements and small gatherings photograph beautifully.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

What if it rains?<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

We shoot anyway. Rain and overcast light are usually kinder than harsh midday sun, and some of my favourite galleries came from a forecast nobody was happy about.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

How many photographs will we get?<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

A full day typically delivers several hundred finished images. The exact number depends on the length of the day, not on a promised count.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Do you offer albums?<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Yes, as an optional add-on after the gallery is delivered. They are never required to see or download your full set of photographs.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

How far do you travel?<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Anywhere in South-East Queensland. Travel within two hours of Brisbane is included in every package; beyond that it is $1.20\/km, quoted before you book.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

How do we book?<\/h4>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

A short contract and a deposit hold the date. The balance is due a month before the wedding, and nothing is time-limited or drip-priced after you sign.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
