Frequently Asked Questions

• Do you have a customer satisfaction or refund policy?
  Absolutely. I could not stay in business if my clients were not happy with my work. While I have never had a client who is not thrilled with my product, I would work with any client to make sure they feel they have gotten what they paid for.
• What are your qualifications? Have you been professionally trained or certified?
  I have been photographing weddings on and off for over 13 years. I do it because I absolutely LOVE it.
• What packages do you offer? What are your rates?
  $4,500 (incl. tax) for 8-10 hours. This includes a pre-wedding consultation, full day of editorial coverage, selected traditional images, typically 700+ images, the original files. I offer discounts for same-sex weddings, to show my support for the "cause".
• Do you require a deposit?
  I ask for payment in full three months before the wedding date, but no deposit. In case of cancellation, I will refund payment minus 15%.
• How many pictures do you take?
  Clients will receive between 300+ images (usually closer to 750-1000) for a full day. For fewer hours, there will be fewer images.
• Can I keep the negatives?
  Yes! Original digital files are yours to keep, as well as access to an online lab where friends and family may purchase images.
• How many weddings have you photographed?
  I do about 10-20 weddings a year (usually only one a month so I can devote significant time and energy to each wedding). I do this because I LOVE it!
• What is your photographic style?
  Editorial, though I also do posed and more traditional to round out a client's needs. I use available light where possible to cut down on the disruption a flash can cause.
• Do you provide black and white photography?
  Yes, and sepia.
• Do you use digital or film?
  Primarily digital.
• Can I see examples of your work?
  Yes, there are sample images available at http://www.holmanphotography.com and very recent work on my blog http://blog.holmanphotography.com. I am also more than happy to meet with potential clients in person.
• How far are you willing to travel?
  I will travel anywhere.
• How quickly will I receive my prints?
  Usually delivery is within 2 weeks of wedding date.
• What makes you different from other photographers?
  I love shooting weddings!! I believe my eye for emotion and detail show through in my work. I want your experience to be hassle-free, fun and easy! Also, I don't mark up my print prices, easy pricing for the day- no hidden fees, a transparent process and LOVE for what I do!
