Who owns the photos and films?

We keep the official creative copyright, but you get full personal usage rights. This means you are free to download, share, and print your photos and films as much as you’d like with zero watermarks or restrictions. 

Keeping the copyright simply allows us to display the work in our portfolio and protects the images from being used commercially by third parties without permission.

What if we are camera shy or feel awkward getting posed?

Nearly every client tells us this before getting in front of our cameras! Our style blends true-to-color editorial work with candid documentary direction. We focus on natural prompts and authentic interactions so you feel comfortable, relaxed, and present.


Weddings and Large Events

When and how will we receive our final photos and videos?

.We know you're excited to relive your day! All packages include a curated photo preview within 48 hours, while our Signature and Legacy collections also include a 1-minute social media video teaser within 24 hours.

Your full photo gallery and final edited films will be delivered within 6 to 8 weeks via a private, password-protected, high-resolution digital link. Custom physical heirlooms will ship shortly after digital delivery, depending on our production partners. Usually within 48 hours.

Do you shoot destination weddings?

Yes, wherever your story takes us! We work hand-in-hand with you or your wedding planner to coordinate all travel logistics and timeline details. This ensures a seamless, stress-free experience so your celebration is beautifully documented in true-to-life color, anywhere in the world.




Do you offer drone footage for our wedding?

Yes! We include complimentary aerial drone coverage with our video packages whenever weather and venue location permit. Aerial shots add a breathtaking, cinematic sense of scale to your venue and outdoor timeline.

Do I have to order prints through you?

Not at all. Your final gallery includes high resolution digital downloads and a personal print release, giving you the freedom to print your images anywhere you choose.

However, for your convenience, your online gallery features an integrated professional print shop. This allows you to seamlessly order heirloom quality prints, and canvases, directly through our trusted laboratory partners with just a few clicks.

Are you insured, and can you provide proof to our venue?

Yes, fully! We carry commercial general liability insurance. If your venue requires a Certificate of Insurance (COI) or needs to be listed as additionally insured, let us know and we’ll handle the paperwork directly with your coordinator or venue.

What happens if our wedding or event time line runs behind schedule?

We know plans can change quickly on event days! During our follow-up call after your retainer is paid, we'll work with you to craft a timeline that includes built-in time buffers for smooth transitions. However, if your celebration happens to run long and you'd like us to stay, we are completely adaptable. We will verbally confirm our standard hourly overtime rate with you on the spot so we can stick around without missing a single highlight!


Graduation

Why are sessions up to 4 hours, and how long does a shoot last?

A full grad session includes up to 4 hours of dedicated coverage. This generous window allows us to visit multiple spots on and off campus, make outfit changes without stress, and build in comfortable buffers for lines at iconic campus landmarks so we can capture optimal golden hour lighting without feeling rushed.

What if we don't need the full 4 hours? Is the price lower?

Our session rate remains the same regardless of time used. The 4-hour block is built in to protect your experience against unpredictable campus lines, travel between spots, lighting shifts, and group outfit changes. It ensures you get a complete, high-quality gallery without ever feeling rushed by the clock!

Are session times limited only to golden hour?

Not at all! While golden hour is the most requested time for soft, warm lighting, we bring professional lighting equipment that allows us to capture crisp, beautifully exposed photos at any time of day or in any lighting condition.

Can I book with friends, and how big of a group can we bring?

Yes! Our session packages accommodate up to 4 graduates together. Group bookings are a fantastic way to split costs, capture fun shared memories, and bring extra energy to the shoot!


Can we switch outfits, bring props, or include family and friends?

Absolutely! We encourage outfit changes (from casual wear to cap and gown), props, champagne pops, and bringing along your family or support system. We want you to feel relaxed and celebrated as we document your hard work and achievements.

How do outfit changes work on campus and off campus??

For maximum comfort, privacy, and security, we always recommend using nearby campus or venue restrooms whenever accessible. However, if we're far from a building or shooting on location, we bring a private, portable pop-up changing pod directly to our shoot spots. This allows you to swap outfits quickly, privately, and seamlessly wherever we are without losing valuable session time!

Can we choose our shoot locations, and are there limits for off-campus spots?

Yes! We’ll collaborate with you to map out an efficient route covering your favorite campus landmarks and off-campus spots. Standard off-campus locations are typically within a 20-minute drive of the main campus (UofA, ASU, or NAU) to keep the focus on shooting.

However, if you prefer just a few quick campus shots, we can easily use your remaining session time to travel to a special location further out! We evaluate extended travel routes on a case-by-case basis to make sure you get the absolute maximum value out of your 4 hours.

What happens if the weather is unfavorable on the day of an outdoor shoot?

Arizona weather is usually on our side, but real-life elements happen! We monitor local forecasts closely leading up to your date. If severe weather or heavy rain impacts an outdoor session, we will work with you to pivot—whether that means utilizing a covered/indoor location, making slight timeline adjustments to dodge a pass-through storm, or rescheduling to our next available date at no extra charge.
