Creative brief

We meet to understand your visual aesthetic. Editorial, romantic, documentary, cinematic. We review reference images or films that match your taste and expectations.

Timeline alignment

We work with your coordinator on a shot list and lighting schedule. Golden hour portraits, key ceremony moments, and speech timing.

Common Questions

Photo & Video FAQ

Still have questions? We’re happy to walk you through camera setups, editing styles, or what a combined package looks like for your specific event.

Ask Us Anything

Can we book photo and video together?

Yes, and we recommend it. We provide wedding photography and videography in Southern California as one unified team, working under a single point of contact. That means no duplication, no crew conflicts, and a shared creative brief so everything feels visually consistent.

What editing style do you use, documentary or editorial?

Both, depending on the moment. We default to a clean, timeless grade. Warm skin tones, natural contrast, slightly muted highlights. We adapt to your preferences after reviewing your reference images during the creative brief.

How many photographers and camera operators will be at my event?

Essential packages include a lead photographer and a two-person video crew. Signature adds a second photographer for simultaneous multi-angle coverage. Cinematic includes a full multi-person production team across both disciplines.

Can we choose the music for our highlight film?

Yes. We’ll send you a curated shortlist of licensed tracks that fit your event’s energy, and you select the final music. If you have something specific in mind, we’ll work with it, provided it’s properly licensed for commercial video use.

Do you coordinate with our ceremony and reception venues beforehand?

Always. We do a venue walkthrough or detailed floor plan review before every event. We identify the best angles for ceremony coverage, lighting challenges, and any restrictions the venue places on equipment or movement during the ceremony.

Is drone footage available for all events?

Drone coverage is included in the Cinematic package and available as an upgrade for Signature bookings. Coverage depends on airspace classification at your venue. We confirm viability well in advance of the event date.
