Frequently Asked Questions
What happens if you're sick?
In the very rare case that something happens and I won't be able to make it on wedding day, my second shooter will lead the wedding. I will also find another second shooter to be there with her. I will still be the one editing all your wedding photos, so they will still look amazing!
What is your backup system?
Don’t worry, I come prepared with backups for my backups! I always shoot with two memory cards in my camera and instantly load them to my computer and back them up on two separate hard drives as well. You can never be too careful!
Do you offer discounts if we don’t need all the items included in a package?
No discounts are given. With my expertise in the wedding industry, I have designed my packages to be all inclusive to fit all of your needs and create the best experience for you!
How long until I receive my images?
I guarantee your gallery will be delivered to you within 90 days in my contract, but I always try my best to deliver images within 4 weeks. If something comes up I will always communicate about it and give you some sneak peeks in the meantime!
Will I have the copyright on the images?
The copyright will always be mine (Laura Banken Photography). But you will still have the unlimited right to download and purchase prints.
Will I have to purchase images?
All images will be included in the gallery delivered to you! The only additional purchases will be for any prints or albums you would like. You aren't required to print through your gallery, but I recommend it for the best quality prints. I have carefully chosen this gallery host because it offers the best quality, pricing, and convenience for my clients!
