Do you like stories? Those fairytale ones, where the prince marries his princess in a fairytale wedding and they live happily ever after? We do. In fact we believe in not only those stories, we create them. Matches are made in heaven. And marriages are orchestrated on the earth. And it’s our job to make these mortal weddings look as beautiful as those of a fairyland princess and her groom.
We are a bunch of wedding photographers. And we are here to make every occasion pertaining to your wedding, look and feel grandiose. And how do we do that? Simple, we have just the perfect lenses for it that allow us to visualize, frame and capture every usual and unusual angle that adds a tad bit more to the tale of wedding.
Stories are not always to be heard, especially fairytales. They are to be seen, experienced, loved and reminisced fondly. And here, we make sure, that your wedding stories, that we script through our lenses, turn out t be just the perfect visual treats!
MEET THE PHOTO-MEN
You see, we love our clients. There would be no one happier than us to see u captured in the most beautiful of frames. That’s why we have a motto to give every wedding a unique photography style of its very own. Be it the camera angle, the lighting, the story in the photo, the mood, the post-production effects or the aura- every wedding has a different story to tell for each of them. What do not change from wedding to wedding are just our passion, love and dedication. It is rest assured; the photo-story of your wedding will be a visual saga to remember!
Oh yes, absolutely! See, in a wedding not every shot taken is a masterpiece. Many don’t have the perfect focus, many don’t have the story, in some the light is obscure, in some your facial profile isn’t the very best and in some, it’s just the mood that’s not right. So we always make it a point to snap more than needed, so as to rummage and find out the perfect ones to make it to your wedding photo album.
Now we value your time, really! So instead of putting it all on you, we have decided to shoulder the responsibility of doing the hard work and selecting the most candid and perfect shots for you to treasure.
P.S. We love you so we don’t trouble you by delivering our entire gamut of photos!
Only the edited forms of videos with celluloid effects are on offer here. There is usually a 5-7 minutes long teaser and an approximate amount of 20 minutes of video of each day, consisting of the finest moments of that day.
Our experiences, gathered over the years, have accustomed us with many a reputed venue, so if you name it, there is a good chance that we have worked there. If however, we have not done no, a simple visit to the venue before the wedding will be enough to acclimatize us with it so as to set up the perfect camera angles.
Absolutely not! We do destination wedding photography for absolutely reasonable budgets. There might be slight changes in our rates, depending on the destination itself, but that would not be drastically higher what we already charge. Apart from our work-payments, the conveyance charges and a reasonably good accommodation would be more than enough. We don’t ask for much!
But do drop in the details of the venue with us at our mail id, so that we can update you with the changed rates.
Our charges for partial coverage are not much lower than what we charge for a whole day. So hiring us for the whole day would be beneficial for you as you would get more photos with just a tad bit more expenditure.
Just because we claim to be the wedding-cam-specialists, that does not mean we don’t do other types of photography. You have to just drop in your enquiry and we will try to help you to the best of our abilities and provide you with a list of options for the same, on request.
See, a little color correction here, a wee bit of adjustment of light there, a little amount of changing of tonality and clarity and a few other adjustments will do nothing else but enhance your photos like anything. So yes, we do that to all deliverable photos. As for the magic, it’s for you to decide whether it’s there or not!
IT’S D-DAY SPECIAL!
If you give us the requisite time and cooperation, there’s nothing we cannot do. There’s no hassle if you are getting ready at home. If it’s a parlour, you need to keep the people there in the loop so that they don’t get in the way of a perfect shot. We can capture every stage of you getting decked up from putting on the mascara to doing the hair to tying the payal… and have a fairytale wedding story made out of it!
See, we are just not being there and waiting idly. We are doing a lot of things from taking more candid snaps or better family shots, backing up the images, taking better venue shots (close-ups and long-shots both), doing portrait shots, planning for the next function’s shoot, travelling and setting up at the next venue if necessary, obliging requests of those extra shots of your friends displaying their myriad mehendis and so on…
So yes, we do have to charge for this time span.
We understand that you do not, intentionally, go beyond the contracted time. Unforeseen circumstances during the wedding force you to do so. So understanding your plight, we never leave before the functions we have been contracted to cover, are over.
As for the charges, you have to have a discussion about that later, if and when the delays should happen. However, let us tell you this, that that the lighting assistants and second shooters all will be working with us during this extra time. So they need the remunerations. Besides, the extra hours will also involve lots of hard-work on our part and additional editing for the added photos. That cost. So we will charge, albeit, not exorbitantly for the extra hours that we cover.
BRING THE WEDDING-SNAPS HOME
The post-production effects for the entire wedding session or the part of it that we cover, take somewhere between a quarter or the whole of a month to complete, depending upon the desired effects and the duration of the shoot. If however, you can’t really wait to admire yourself in your finest bridal snaps, then a nominal added charge will be levied by us to deliver the photos before the slated time.
P.S. In case we are head-deep in work, the delivery of the photos can be done at a later date than as scheduled. We won’t be charging extra for that, so be happy!
We will specify the number of images depending on
a) the number of functions we are covering,
b) whether we are covering the pre-wedding, wedding and post-wedding rituals or just any one or two of them and
c) whether we are covering a part or whole of any wedding-day function
There is no specific pre-decided set of images for us to deliver. You’ll just have to wait and see!
We are afraid to say, that this is not a part of our package. We will have to charge extra for it.
Well, the answers are yes and no, respectively. We cover your engagements with as much élan as we do for your weddings. As for the delivery of the photos the time specifications are same as that for the wedding
Well, since the number of pictures involved here is small, we will take our picks and send you downloadable images of the same so that you can you can decide for yourself which ones to have delivered and which ones not.
The final photos will be sent to you once this job is done and post-production techniques applied.
Our earnest apologies but the answer is yes. We do that to avoid plagiarism and being deprived of our due credit by other photographers
WEDDING ALBUMS COMING UP!
The 12”X18” exotic album cover that we give you to treasure your wedding photos in, we dare say, looks extremely classy, suave and up-to-the-minute. The number of photos in it will not comprise of the entire range of photos that we click but the finest chunk taken from them. The ideal number would be somewhere between 100 and 140.
We will put the photos in them as we deem fit, aligning bigger and smaller ones accordingly. The photos that we put, one in a single page, be assured, present you in the finest light.
P.S. It is not that you have to go for our custom-made album(s) only. If you have something of your exclusive choice we will accommodate it gladly.
The album is a totally different thing, getting it ready and delivering it takes more time compared to the case of the photos. We deliver it within six to seven weeks of the placement of order. That only, if you lose no time in selecting the photos for it, if you are not leaving the selection to our discretion.
Yes you may. We have a set number of pages and photos for it that we will let you know about if and when you place the order. Any addition to that will be chargeable.
Note : And before you ask, we are not framers. However we can gladly help you with the contact of the framing guy and the type of frames should you need it.
KNOW THE TECHNICALITIES
20X30 for the usual cases. A bigger printable size is possible but then, it is also chargeable, the reason being the added incorporation of changes in post-production techniques.
All this happens, solely because we are unable to provide you with the raw files for certain business constraints
Yes there are. Let’s elucidate for you
Do’s
a) Reprint images as many times as you want to
b) Post them online with our logos/watermarks
Don’ts
a) Sell the photos
b) Give them to other photographers/ videographers/ photo-sites for use
Note : Lost/Damaged DVDs will be replaced with a nominal courier charge (not needed if you arrange for a pick-up). You just have to call us or drop in a query via e-mail. Our contact details will be by then already with you. If not, they are on our site for your perusal.
UNVEIL THE SHOOT-GEARS
Oh absolutely. As for the backup we have separate hard drives for separate events to back the image files up. Not only that, they are uploaded on to a remote server from time to time. There are memory chips, which are used as well. So we are never having just one single file of photos with us. Besides, even after delivery we save your photos for as long as we can.
Oh yes you are bang on target. We have just what your photos need. The Canon FF DSLR with every imaginable feature is used by us to snap you the best.
P.S. You can check the product reviews online. We can safely say that you will find a majority of them rather satisfying
THE MEET & THE POCKET-PINCH
Not at all. Just a simple signing of the contract and a token deposit will have us booked for your event. However if it is a busy season, we advise you to do this well in advance.
The terms and conditions include
a) No refund of the token amount on cancellation of the engagement/wedding
b) For a change of date, the already deposited token amount will continue to serve as the guarantee. No extra money will be asked of you to be deposited as the token amount
c) However the charges of the package might increase if the rates change for the future dates
d) Conveyance payment is only associated with destination weddings. If it is in the city, you don’t need to pay an extra buck. Happy?
Oh yes, absolutely! But we would like to meet both your families at least once or twice before the wedding/engagement actually happens. This is because no one can outline and express your dreams regarding your wedding the way you do. Note : We do not travel to meet clients. You have to come down to our office for a tête-à-tête.
A relationship is the most beautiful thing in the world and at every marriage; we celebrate the start of one. We believe in honouring these moments when two hearts are finally bound as one and it’s our lenses that pay the homage best. We are a bunch of wedding photographers, from The Wedding Boutique… and we strive to the best of our abilities to capture you in the finest of your moods, from the most exotic of all angles, so that your wedding becomes an affair to remember!
Thank you. Regards,
