FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


How much WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY experience do you have?
I started photographing weddings in Orange County, CA in 1983. I have photographed well over 1,000 weddings. Some of the places I've photographed are: The Mission Inn, Palos Verdes, Dana Point, Laguna Beach, Huntington Beach, Newport Beach, and many more locations throughout Orange and Los Angeles Counties.
What kind of camera equipment do you use, and do you have backup?
I use professional Fuji Digital SLR cameras, along with many lenses such as fisheye, telephoto, and wide angle. I always bring at least three cameras and 3 flash systems for back up.
What if something goes wrong, and none of the pictures turn out? ever happened?
No, that has never happened in all these years. I am very careful about bringing backups & am careful with the images after they are shot as well.
Do you have an assistant?
Yes, my assistant holds lighting and reflectors when needed and also acts as a second photographer during the ceremony.
After the wedding, how and when do I view my photos?
On the wedding day, I will give you "business cards" for you to distribute to your family and guests with the website/password information so that the images can easily be viewed in color, black and white or sepia. There is even a shopping cart in case anyone would like to purchase them.
After the wedding, can I keep my negatives/cd of images?
That depends on which package you decide to choose. Sometimes, I can include them with a different package for an additional fee.
