Album FAQs
Do I need to book my album when I book you for your wedding?
No, you can definitely make your decision after the wedding. It does make financial sense to purchase one of my album packages, as they are discounted. In saying that, I allow you two months following the delivery of your gallery to take advantage of the discount.
Why should I invest in a wedding photography album?
An album of your wedding photos is a timeless keepsake that will let you return to the memories of your big day for years to come. It's an ideal way to let loved ones who couldn't attend your wedding join in the joy.
Can I customize my wedding photography album?
Yes, I offer customization options for their albums, such as choosing the cover material, adding text, and choosing the design layout of the photos.
How do I choose the photos for my album?
I will send you an email with a link once you have received the complete wedding day gallery, and you will select 30-40 of your favourite photographs and ‘hit send to photographer’. When I receive them, I will design your album and send you the first proof of your wedding album via email. It is through online software that you can comment on the page with any changes.
How many design changes do I get to make?
There are three rounds of changes available to you. Anything extra may result in further charges.
What happens if I have paid for my album but I don’t get time to get back to you?
I get it, life gets so busy after the wedding, but I hate hearing that couples did not receive their wedding album. Therefore, If it has been a year since your wedding and I have not heard from you within 6 months of trying, I will deliver your album as I see appropriate.
I’m finding it incredibly hard to pick 40 favourite images. Can you help?
I know; I think this is the most difficult part for everyone. This is what can occasionally cause the process to be delayed. My recommendation is to choose more if necessary, and I will incorporate as much as possible into the design without making it distracting. You can always add more spreads for €40 per spread. If you really can't, then let me know and I will pick them for you, and you can always swap them.
How long does it take to receive my wedding photography album?
The time it takes to receive your wedding photography album will vary depending on the time of year. Typically, the months in which I focus on compliance are March, April, September, October, and the beginning of November. My Christmas deadline is November 1st, which is usually my busiest time for albums.
