WHEN SHOULD WE SCHEDULE AN ENGAGEMENT SHOOT?

Typically the engagement shoot is scheduled 4-6 months prior to the wedding. This will allow enough time to be able to use the photos for save-the-date announcements, guest books, etc. However, engagements shoots may take place any date prior to the wedding.

The engagement shoot is a very important part of your wedding photography experience. It gives both us as the photographers and you as a couple the chance to get to know each other more.   We like to keep them relaxed and fun in a location of your choice.  It also gives you a chance to get comfortable with us, and being in front of our cameras.

HOW MUCH EXPERIENCE DO YOU HAVE AS A WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER?

I am formally trained with a photography degree from the Art Institute of Colorado.  2014 will be our 6th year owning and operating Drake Busch Photography and shooting 20+  weddings per year.  We are well equipped and knowledgeable to creatively capture your wedding day and make it the most memorable and fun experience possible.

HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR STYLE?

We provide a relaxed, crisp and clean documentation of your entire wedding day.  We spend most of the day capturing fun and candid moments as your day unfolds.  We will also take the time to direct you and your families for more traditional/formal shots as well.

WHAT KIND OF EQUIPMENT DO YOU SHOOT WITH? 

We currently are equipped with top-of-the-line Canon professional digital cameras and lenses.  We carry a variety of lighting equipment and flashes the day of your wedding to meet any lighting situation. Our video team is equipped with Black Magic 4k and 6k cameras to document your day.

WILL I GET THE FULL RIGHTS TO THE PHOTOS FROM MY WEDDING DAY?

The answer is yes if you select the package that includes thumbdrive of high-resolution images?  You will receive a thumbdrive of high-resolution jpegs as well as web-sized jpegs with your final products.  You will also receive a copyright release form to take with you to printers who require it.

HOW LONG AFTER MY WEDDING WILL I SEE THE IMAGES?

Typically it takes 8-12 weeks to process and edit each wedding's photos before coming online for viewing and ordering.  Most often a sneak peek will be provided on our blog :) This is just an estimate as timelines can change based upon each season.

HOW MANY PHOTOS WILL BE ON THE ThumbDrive? 

There is no limit to the amount of photos that we deliver to you.  Generally you will get anywhere between 800-1000+ photos depending on the wedding and length of coverage.

DO YOU TRAVEL?

We LOVE to travel! We would be happy to discuss your wedding plans with you and create a travel wedding package thats just right for you.

DO YOU HAVE INSURANCE?

Yes we are fully covered with commercial photography insurance.

HOW MUCH DO I NEED TO PUT DOWN TO RESERVE MY DATE?

We require a 30% retainer fee to book and save your date.  The remainder of the amount is then due 3 weeks prior to your wedding.

DO YOU ACCEPT CREDIT CARDS?

The answer is yes.  We can accept any form of credit card via paypal.  Drake and CO Photo+Films will incur all credit card processing fees.

CAN I ORDER AN ALBUM OR OTHER PRINT PRODUCTS IN ADDITION TO MY WEDDING PACKAGE?

We will work with you to design and create a custom album that you will cherish for years to come.  The styles and options are endless.  We also have a wide array of print products available for purchase either through our online proofing page or direct from us, and our preferred printer.  Ask us to learn more about a la carte and print pricing.

Give us a call if you have further questions or to set up a consultation.
