What your wedding estimate depends on
Every wedding is different. That is why an estimate is prepared to measure and in writing.
There is no fixed list because no two weddings resemble each other: an intimate ceremony half an hour from the city is not the same as a two-day celebration on an island. Each proposal is prepared to measure and arrives in writing, without obligation.
Four factors
- Hours on siteFrom the preparations to the end of the party, or only the part that interests you.
- Photographs, film or bothWith two professionals on the same day.
- The venueIf the place requires travel, it is presented in writing before you decide.
- What you wish to keepAlbum, case, framed work or a pre-wedding session.
How we work
We do not direct: we aim for you to forget we are there. We look for the complicity that already exists between you, not a rehearsed pose. We suggest, accompany and step aside. A wedding cannot be repeated, so it is not interrupted: it is followed.
Our gaze comes from documentary and fashion: we know when to be in front and when to disappear, and we care for light and framing even when no one poses.
Frequently asked questions
- How much does a wedding with you cost? It depends on the hours on site, on whether you want photo and video, and on where the wedding is. Write to us with the date and the place and we'll reply within 24 hours and, after a short design call, send you the final price in writing and with no commitment. And if the wedding is on the island, what gets added: what it costs to get married in Mallorca.
- How is travel handled? It depends on the place. Travel and accommodation, if needed, are set out in writing in your proposal before signing; they never appear afterwards.
- Do you do photo and video on the same day? Yes, with our own team: photographer and videographer working together. There's no need to choose, and you won't end up with two suppliers who don't know each other getting in each other's way.
- How many photos do we receive? The number of edited photographs depends on how long the day is and on the style of work: the sensible thing is to ask what is delivered, in what format and within what time, and to have it in writing. We count moments, not photos: we choose and edit each one.
- When do we receive the photos and the video? Photos within a maximum of a month and a half; the film within a maximum of three months. The album depends on its type and on how long you take to choose. The deadline is set in writing in the quote, and if anything is delayed we tell you before you ask.
- How is the date reserved? The terms of reservation and payment are confirmed in writing in your proposal, before you sign.
- Do we need a second photographer? We recommend one from around a hundred guests, or if you get ready in different places: we can't be in two places at once. If we see it isn't needed, we'll tell you.
- Can we see a whole wedding, and not just the best of each? Yes. Ask us and we'll show you one in full. It's the best way to know how we really work: anyone's best shows in a summary, what matters shows in the whole wedding.
To compare proposals
With three teams, compare using the same questions: who attends, who edits, how many images and chosen how, what timeframe is in writing, what happens if a camera breaks or the photographer falls ill, and whether travel and taxes are included in the figure you receive.
