QUESTIONS
We set up a digital call to go over all your wedding photography wishes after which you will receive your custom quote. In order to confirm your date, a retainer (35% of the accepted quote) is to be paid and a signed contract. The remainder is due 4 weeks before the wedding date. All bookings are taken care of electronically.
01. How do we book you?
We generally shoot a combination of the two - depending on the job at hand and the desires of the client. Polaroids are a medium I love adding in as well. If you love film photography, I want to know. I always just use the best medium for the job at hand. Film is beautiful and I have a deep love and appreciate for it, but digital has many advantages too, so I generally blend the two.
02. Does the team shoot digital or film?
Yes, we generally travel for most of our weddings. For destination weddings, you will always book the team, consisting of 2 main photographer + an associate photographer, a drone pilot and an assistant. We will provide you with a travel quote and all travel arrangements are booked by Oydin+Mei.
03. Do you travel for weddings? Do you charge a travel fee?
We are currently specialised in covering multi-day events ranging from 2-5 days with a 150-350 guest count. After 8 years of covering weddings in Europe, we've discovered that our sweet spot is working in multi-disciplinary teams on complex event timelines led by experienced wedding planners.
04. Do you cover small weddings?
You will receive your full collection of edited & retouched photographs 8-10 weeks after your wedding date. Each image is individually edited with great care, it is not something to be rushed. To satisfy your day after craving, you will receive 10 highlight photographs the next day at breakfast.
05. When do we receive our photos?
Yes, each book is custom designed for each of you. You can purchase prints directly from your proofing gallery, along with many other beautifully curated products.
06. Do you make wedding albums & sell prints?
I work on my own and with assistants &/or second photographers depending on the details and size of the wedding. Generally with weddings with a guest count over 110 guests and/or complex timelines, I would recommend a second photographer, for less than, I feel confident photographing on my own. I will be able to give you my recommendation given your exact plans for your wedding and order of events. Another aspect to consider when making the choice of having a second shooter or not, is having a photograph of your outfit walking down the aisle from behind a must have photograph to you? And would you enjoy a fashion photography interpretation of your details (dress, perfume, jewellry etc.). I can only be in one place at a time, so a second photographer can be important if certain photographs like these are important to you (ie having your face & your outfit from behind photographed at the exact same time / having your details photographed in a fashion photography style & your getting ready in a documentary style). For elopements & small weddings in Amsterdam, I generally work on my own.
07. Do you work with second shooters / assistants?
Yes, we are always at your disposal to help with your wedding day photography timeline. Feel free to reach out to us anytime for help with this.
08. Can you help us with our timeline so we allow the right amount of time for photos etc?
If you're into capturing the real moments, epic dance-offs, heartfelt vows, and probably way too many candid shots of your loved ones, you've come to the right place.
