FAQs

What kind of photo shoots can we book?

Weddings, elopements, engagement shoots - you name it! I photograph people and their love: to themselves, to their loved ones, something they are passionate about. But outside of wedding and couples photography, I also photograph maternity, families, individual portraits, studio portraits, I also shoot for brands and personal projects. Feel free to write me with your idea, I'd be glad to develop it with you and to capture you if it corresponds with my vision.

How long does it take to get our final pictures?

I deliver wedding galleries within 10-12 weeks after the wedding. Family, maternity and other smaller shoots are usually delivered within 2 to 4 weeks.

What if it's our very first time in front of the camera? We're not photogenic!

Most people I work with and that you see in my portfolio have asked me the same question! My photography style is documentary which means you will be as authentic as only you can be and I will capture you the way I see you. Wedding days with me as well as other shoots are a safe space for the people in front of my camera, I will carefully guide you every step of the way and help you be you. 

Do you travel for weddings? Are you available worldwide?

Yes! I'm based in Berlin, Germany, but I travel a lot - especially in summer - for destination weddings. I also travel during low season so if you are interested in a shoot with me anywhere in the world, feel free to reach out and to share the details about your wedding or shoot and we'll discuss whether I can come!

Do you help us with the timeline of the wedding day or with the planning of our shoot?

Of course! As for weddings, we usually have several calls before the wedding day to discuss expectations, moodboards, the timeline of the day and I would be happy to assist you in planning your wedding day accordingly to your photography wishes in order to deliver a final gallery of your dreams. This is my prior goal to create the work you'll love for years and I might be proud of. As for other shoots - they also imply a good preparation from both sides. Before every photo session we discuss the details: your expectations, preferred locations and the mood of the shoot. 

How do we get our photos?

For every photo shoot I design a private online-gallery with all the final pictures. The gallery is included in pricing. You will have the access to the gallery during at least six months. You can share the link with your loved ones and you can also customise your gallery: choose your favourite pictures or hide certain pictures or scenes in case you don't want to share them. The photos will be accessible for download in two formats: high resolution and web. My online gallery platform is directly connected with photo labs I tested and pre-selected, so you could order prints, thank you cards and photo albums directly from the gallery.

No, not always! But I am a huge analog photography fan and I can't imagine my work without film, so I included analog photography in every full day wedding package! So if you booked me for a full day coverage, you will receive analog coverage as well! But if you book me for half a day (available for bookings in the low season) or any other shorter shoot, analog photography is not included in the package, you would have to book it on top which a lot of my clients choose to do. If you are into that nostalgic and vintage vibe of film photography, you are more than welcome to add it any time to any shoot you're going to book with me!
