Hey there, you probably haven’t done this before, and you may have a lot of questions. Here are some quick answers to some of your most common questions. I hope this helps.
Why do you shoot weddings? Isn’t it too stressful?
I feel blessed to have been given a unique skill set: a perfect balance of social, artistic, and scientific talent which I bring to the table on your wedding. I love meeting people and helping them relax in front of my camera. I use my artistic vision to compose shots and bring a sense of power to my images. And I use my scientific brain to take care of the technical elements needed to photograph in the most challenging situations and venues.
What type of camera gear do you use?
I use Nikon professional full-frame camera bodies and lenses in order to provide my couples with the highest quality and most artistic products.
Do you carry backup equipment to weddings?
Yes, we carry multiple cameras, flashes, and lenses. All of our critical gear has backup in case of emergencies.
What is your Style?
My images are clean, classic, and exciting. My hallmark traits are a strong use of natural color, obsession with excellent and flattering light, and a focus on capturing emotional moments. My goal is that you will be able to look back on your images in 20 years and not feel like they are dated.
Who actually shoots my wedding?
All of our wedding packages are exclusively shot by John Crozier plus an assistant.
Do you provide second photographers?
Second photographers are available with some of our high end packages as well as with our entry packages for an additional fee.
How many pictures do you deliver?
We shoot a lot of images on your wedding day, but we only deliver the best. Expect to receive ~100/hour of coverage.
What kind of wedding albums do you offer, and why are they so expensive?
We offer handcrafted wedding albums in several styles. Cover options range from a variety of real cowhide leathers, to gorgeous Japanese silks, to rustic natural linens. New for 2014 we are offering both photographic and fine art color printing. We have scoured the internet and trade shows to bring you the albums we believe are the best in the industry. Each album is produced and assembled by hand in the USA and is guaranteed to last for life. The design of your wedding album is done in studio by John with collaboration from the couple. Each photo used in your book is custom retouched and enhanced. We consider the wedding album to be the first heirloom a couple will have from their marriage and we invest a lot of time and effort in creating these books for you.
Do we get the digital files, and can we print them?
Yes, and yes. Your digital files will be delivered to you along with a print release so you can print them wherever and whenever you’d like. We of course also offer professional photo-finishing services as well.
How much do you charge?
Our 2015 commissions start at $3300. Please contact me for the most recent price guide.
This sounds great. How do we book?
Woah, hold on there. I believe it is important to sit down with each of my couples to make sure we are a good fit for each other. If you’d like to schedule a meeting please email john@crozierphotography.com or call 206-714-6662.
