HERE ARE THE GENERAL STEPS YOU’LL TAKE WITH US DURING THE WEDDING PLANNING PROCESS
Depending on what services you’ve booked with us and the timing leading up to your event, there might be slight variations in these milestones. Also the time of year that your event takes place may alter some of the delivery times (example: June and September are peak months and those events may have a slightly longer timeframe to receive their photos/films).
You’ve signed your contract and paid your retainer. We’re officially booked! A link to your client portal will be sent at this time as well.
We’ll ask you a bunch of questions to determine the best time of year and location for your session. It’s best to lock in the date as soon as possible.
Session starts 2 hours before sunset for the best light! More details can be found on the engagement session planning part of the MJS Experience.
You’ll come to the studio to see your images and critique them. This is INVALUABLE! You’ll also get a chance to see our wall art and albums.
You’ll receive this 3 months before the event. Fill it out the best you can. We’ll schedule a phone call to go over it together. The call lasts 1 hour+.
It’s finally here! All our planning has paid off! Try to enjoy it. Don’t stress the small stuff. We’ll capture beautiful memories for you and your family!
1-2 weeks after, we’ll deliver a few images. If you hired us for video and added a teaser/trailer to your package, we’ll deliver it at this time too!
Our goal is to get you the full gallery of images 1-2 months after your event. During busy parts of the year, you may have to wait a little longer.
The film is delivered 3-4 months after the event. We don’t rush the process and make sure you receive something you’ll truly love.
If you ordered additional edits or Raw Footage, you’ll receive them a few weeks after the Film is delivered. You can add these after the event too.
If you included an album with your package, you’ll receive the image order form at this time. Once approved, album will be delivered within 90 days.
Content is removed from our servers 1 year after the event. Be sure to back them up on multiple devices (don’t worry, we’ll remind you)!
