FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Please contact me when you feel my documentary approach suits your wedding.
Wedding coverage starts at 2000 euro (VAT inclusive), for 8 hours. This price always includes a printed photo album (20×28), a slideshow, and an online gallery. Extra hours or a second photographer are possible on demand. Make sure to ask me! I am available for bookings worldwide.

Why do you emphasize moments?

It is the only way that feels genuine.

Do you edit all selected images?

Yes, all selected images are corrected for brightness, contrast, and colors.

How many images do we get?

I don’t guarantee a certain amount of images since I try to build a story. As a guideline, you can rely on 300 images of an eight-hour wedding.

Do you also shoot color? 

Yes, I just feel that photography is often calmer in black and white, that’s why I communicate primarily B&W images. full wedding reportages are a nice mix of color and B&W.

What if you are sick on our wedding day?

This won’t happen but if it would, I can call upon a big community of wonderful photographers that work in a documentary fashion.

How do we book you? 

Please fill out the contact form or give me a call, that way we can meet up in Ghent.
When we both feel we are matching I will send you the contract to sign and after payment of the deposit block your date.

Do you also photograph posed groupshots.

Yes, I will if you want me to, make sure to tell me when we meet.
will do this quick and efficient, that way it everybody keeps feeling comfortable.
This won’t be the focus of the reportage, however.

Can you make some posed photos of us as a couple?

Sure i will if you want me to, make sure to ask me when we meet up.
I believe it is important that these images are genuine, so I won’t take you on a “shoot” during hours.
Instead, I will try to pull you as a couple aside from your guests for 5 minutes a few times throughout the day.
That way I let you enjoy a moment of peace in between the rush of the day, and I get to photograph a sincere moment.

Will everybody attending our wedding be photographed?

Since I focus on photographing moments that contribute to the storyline of your wedding day I cant guarantee every single guest is photographed.

Can you bring a second photographer that also works in a documentary style?

Sure, I would love too!

What do you wear on our weddingday?

A decent but flexible outfit that allows me to focus on the creative process, sometimes climbing, sometimes laying down.

How long does it take to deliver our images? 

I deliver a preview in the first two weeks following the wedding, the full online gallery will be available between eight up to ten weeks later.

Can we get unedited RAW-files? 

No, I don’t deliver unfinished, unedited images.

Can we get a wedding reportage without an album? 

Because I believe photography is meant to viewed as a coherent story on paper each wedding reportage ends up as a printed photo album.

Can we get an extra wedding album?

Sure!

How many weddings do you shoot each year?  

I shoot a maximum of 8 weddings a year.

We don’t like to pose?

Perfect I don’t like taking posed images.
