Question 1

How does the booking process work?

Accepted Answer

It starts with the initial contact – via the contact form, email, or phone. Afterwards, we'll arrange a video call or a personal meeting if you're local. This initial meeting is simply about getting to know each other. I'd like to learn more about your plans, and we can see if we're a good fit.

If you choose me, we will put all agreed services in writing – including an invoice for a 30% deposit. This will make your appointment binding and confirmed.

About a week before the wedding, I'll get in touch again to schedule a final meeting. We'll go over all the details so that no questions remain on your wedding day and you can focus entirely on enjoying your special day. Five to seven days before the wedding, we usually have a good overview of the weather forecast, and most of the vendors and organizational details are finalized.

Question 2

We've never been in front of a camera before - do we need to know how to pose?

Accepted Answer

Short and sweet – NO, because I'll take care of that for you.
Most of my bridal couples are in front of the camera for the first time – so you don't need to worry.
My photography thrives on natural and spontaneous moments. During a couple's shoot, I'll guide you and give you little tips on how to move or stand – the rest is pure magic! ✨

Question 3

How can we reach you?

Accepted Answer

Through all modern communication channels!
Feel free to contact me via the website, WhatsApp, email, or simply give me a call. Easy and open communication is very important to me. Therefore, I'm always happy to listen – and you can tell me about your wishes, needs, or updates regarding your wedding at any time!

Question 4

How long should the couple's photoshoot last and when is the best time?

Accepted Answer

We should allow at least 45 minutes for the couple's photoshoot to take beautiful, relaxed pictures. Of course, there's no upper limit – with location changes, a couple's photoshoot can easily last three hours.
I'm happy to help you plan the timing of your wedding day. With over 80 weddings under my belt, I have a wealth of experience, and together we'll find the perfect moments for your photos. Whether it's in front of the church, midday, or during the golden hour in the afternoon – we'll make it happen!

Question 5

How much does your wedding photography cost?

Accepted Answer

A very important and valid question – but extremely difficult to answer in general terms. The prices of the packages I put together for my couples are as individual as the weddings themselves. Therefore, it's unfortunately impossible to give a fixed price. Factors that influence the price include, for example:

• Duration of photography
 • Number of guests
 • Location and possible location changes
 • Arrival and, if applicable, overnight stay

It's very important to me to learn more about you and your plans. Therefore, my promise to you: You'll receive your personalized offer directly during our first video call or meeting.

So feel free to contact me!

Question 6

Do you offer prints and photo books?

Accepted Answer

Yes! As a professional photographer, I have the opportunity to order extremely high-quality products for you from professional shops like nphoto.com (https://nphoto.com/de). For example, the " Photobook Pro (https://nphoto.com/de/fotobuecher/fotobuch-pro)" with 50 images on 30 (30x20) pages, 170 g/m² paper in Arctic White – an absolute favorite with my bridal couples.

In addition, it is possible to order and individually configure everything from small fine art prints to large posters.
Feel free to discuss it in a video call, and I'll give you a complete offer including prints and a photo book!

Question 7

What happens if you suddenly get sick?

Accepted Answer

*knocks on wood*
To date, I've never had to cancel a wedding. However, we're all only human – and the worst-case scenario could happen one day. That's why we photographers have a wonderful network of many fantastic and helpful colleagues who are always ready to step in for each other. This is how we weathered the Corona pandemic – and will continue to do so in the future.

Question 8

Do you also work with videographers?

Accepted Answer

Yes! If you would like to have a videographer at your wedding, please mention it in the form! I work closely with some great videographers from the region.
Do you already have your own video team? Then it would be great if we could briefly coordinate so that we don't get in each other's way at the wedding – and so that everyone can achieve the best possible result for you.

Question 9

Do you also take photos with a drone?

Accepted Answer

Yes – if it's allowed.
Especially at larger weddings, the drone is perfect for group photos or to capture your location from above.
I also like to use them during couple photoshoots to show the surrounding mountains and landscape from a unique perspective.
