For You

FAQ - Weddings


What styles of photography do you offer?


We offer a variety of photographic styles including both formal and journalistic formats. There are photos, like those of family groups and the full wedding party, that are more successfully captured in a formal, posed fashion. Journalistic style is the creative, spontaneous method of capturing those special, candid moments of your day. It is our philosophy that a blend of these two styles results in the certainty that everyone important to you is represented in a photo while including the memorable moments you will cherish.


How do you work with your clients to be sure the desired photos are captured?


We work with clients several times before the wedding day. Initially, we meet to select the wedding collection and solidify plans for the event. Then, in most cases, an engagement photo (included in most of our wedding collections) is taken, and additional information is gathered about your needs and wishes. Finally, a formal consultation is planned where the details of the wedding are discussed, a list of important photos are recorded, and special requests are made. It is our goal to discuss these details with each couple prior to the wedding so that you can focus your attention on enjoying your day and let us focus on the details.


What is required to book my date?


We require $900.00 deposit along with your contract to book the date. The final payment is due 4 weeks prior to the wedding date. Please remember that dates are limited.  They are first-come, first-serve - upon the receipt of a contract and reservation fee.  Thank you in advance for your understanding.


How many photos do you take?


There is no limit to the amount of photos. Sharpe photographers will take as many as needed to cover the assignment. A consultation prior to your wedding day assures that we share the same expectations regarding your wedding day.


Are there wedding photography packages to choose from or would we have to hire you for the entire day?


You have several wedding collections to choose from at Sharpe Photographers. Because no two weddings are alike, there is a package to meet every need. Our wedding collections range from all-day services and endless photos to a simple collection of a few hours and relative print quantities.
