Frequently
Asked Questions
Hopefully these
questions asked by others will help to answer any questions you may have.
General Questions:
Where are
you located and how far will you travel ?
I currently work out my home in Lancaster, Pennsylvania and will travel to most
places within the Susquehanna Valley. Including Lancaster, York, Dauphin,
Adams, Perry, Chester Counties and others. Mileage exceeding 60 miles
round trip the day of the wedding will be billed at 30 cents per mile.
Do you
work alone or with another photographer or assistant ?
For the past year I
have photographed the majority of weddings by myself. I found that it is easier
and more convenient at times to be on my own. If I thought help would be needed
for any wedding day an assistant would be arranged.
What kind
of camera due you use - 35mm, medium format or digital ?
At this time I've
been using digital capture for most of my wedding work. Occasionally
medium format color film might be used and scanned or Black and White film if
requested. 35mm
film is only used for certain special effects or Infrared photography .
What do
you consider your style of photography - tradition, candid, photo-journalistic,
etc ?
I like to consider
myself a documentary photographer or a story teller. Simply documenting your day as it
unfolds with as few interruptions as possible. I will also take any traditional photographs normally
included, such as bride and groom, wedding party and family portraits and of
course the cutting of the cake, bouquet toss, dancing, etc. Not to mention
any additional ideas you may have.
Do you
offer any packages without Art Leather Albums ?
Yes. I offer
Budget Plans for those who prefer to create their own album or feel that a
selection album is all that they need.
Do you use
real Black & White film ?
Yes, and every roll
is developed and hand printed by me.
Do you
only take a predetermined number of photographs at every wedding?
No. While
attending Edinboro University of Pennsylvania I was taught the idea that film
was cheap
and if you shoot a million images your bound to get one or two good ones.
