Wedding FAQ

This also answers the question of “who will be our photographer?” We have regularly provided multiple professional photographers;  however, unless otherwise arranged Dale, the owner of DC Images, will be your photographer.

Sure do. Check out our Wedding Photography & Film page for more information.

This will depend on your wedding plans but generally speaking on the day it would be one photographer and/or one videographer and possibly one assistant.

Our services work on a first in, first served basis and we have bookings made a year or more in advance. That being said, for any couple who come in to see us at the studio we will try to contact them should another couple ask about their wedding date. In other words, we try to offer you first dibs wherever we can.

Including your first studio visit as well as a face-to-face chat in the lead up to the wedding day (not to mention anything else you might need our help with) we are looking at two-hours (plus). There is no set or X-amount of time really. Stop by the studio for a coffee and a chat and we will spend as much time chatting things through as you need.

Absolutely, among other insurance policies we have public liability insurance for ten-million dollars.

Through various camera formats we always capture RAW files and then provide couples with fully perfected and genuine high resolution JPEG files.

The more time you spend doing anything on your wedding day the more opportunities you create, it really is that simple. Traditionally for photos of the loved-up couple and their bridal party a minimum of one-hour is a good starting point, whether in one go or collectively spread across the day. Remember to allow for travel time as well.

This will depend entirely upon the day you have planned and the amount of time we are there snapping away. Always remember that the idea is quality not quantity and we will always look to provide as much variety as possible rather than simply capture variations of the same backdrop. In short, there is no set amount/limit, we capture as many photographs as is required to tell the whole story.

Generally yes, we do delete the odd image on the day where we may have tested the exposure in a difficult lighting environment or when a person has clearly blinked in the shot.

Yes, you receive fully prepared, retouched and genuine high resolution 300dpi JPEGs. Additionally, there is no copyright logo placed over any image.

Yes. Every digital file/photograph we ever take is archived onto external hard-drives and these are stored both on and off site.

This is entirely up to you and the package you decide to put together. If it helps, most of our couples prefer to get their high-resolution photographs and then look to our hand-crafted albums and custom made artworks.

Yes and as always your photography package will include whatever you like.

Yes and as always your photography package will include whatever you like.

Yes, just let us know what you are looking for and that is exactly what we will do.

Unless special requests are made the turnaround time on your fully perfected and genuine high resolution JPEG is four-weeks.

Once an album design is sent into production five to six-weeks depending upon the style of album you have chosen.

Once a frame design has been approved turnaround times will be approximately three weeks (subject to availability which you will be advised of at the time).

Simply complete the booking form and pay the deposit and we can take care of the rest.

If we are covering more than an hour of your reception then in the interest of not passing out a meal would be appreciated.
