Q: How do I book a photographer for my event?

A: Simply fill out the Photographer Request Form on this website and we will respond with availability. If you need more immediate help, please call the studio at 678-457-4578. If you call, please have the following information available: date and time of event, location of event, number of guests, the type of photography you want (we can help with this if you are uncertain), and how you would like to use the final images (on DVD, as presents for guests, documentation, etc).

Q: Why are print prices more when guests purchase them individually?

A: Print prices vary based on who will be paying for each. If the client organization would like to provide prints for the guests of the event, we pass on the savings for only having to complete one transaction (the invoice to the organization). If guests are purchasing prints themselves, we must charge more per print to cover the additional labor involved with handling multiple transactions.

Q: Will images be available for public view?

A: Unless requested otherwise, all event images will be posted in their own gallery online for guests to see.

Q: Can guests purchase prints from the website, or do they have to go through the event organizer?

A: Guests may purchase directly through our online shopping cart without sending orders to the event organizer.

Q: What is open licensing? How can I use the images? Do we own the images?

A: Open Licensing means the contracting party (the organization or individual that pays the invoice) has permission to print and/or publish the images for their own marketing, advertising, or internal purposes. The only use open licensing does not allow is for the contracting party to sell the photos to individuals or other organizations, or let third party organizations use the images for any purpose that does not directly promote or benefit the contracting party.

Q: If we are paying for the Photographer Hourly Rate plus a Formal Portraits set-up fee, will the photographer shoot anything else, or just the Formal Portraits?

A: The photographer will shoot exactly what our client contact requests. Usually the Formal Portraits are photographed at the beginning of the event and a few at the very end to capture the few attendees that always seem to arrive late. During the event the photographer is free to take roaming candids, details, PR shots of VIP's, and any other requests the contact person has.

Q: Who is responsible for providing a background for the Formal Portraits?

A: Normally, the contracting party or venue has an adequate background included in the event or venue decor. In cases where no such background exists, we can provide a muslin (canvas) background in a variety of colors, or provide popular green screen technology for completely custom backgrounds.

Q: Why are there minimums for onsite printing?

A: In order to print onsite, we have to bring additional assistants, set up additional equipment, and use specially designed printers. We require minimums to make certain we can provide the resources necessary for you and your guests to walk away with fantastic high quality prints at the end of the night.
