We love destination weddings, exploring new places, meeting new people and learning new traditions. Favourite thing to do <3.
We do one wedding a year free of charge and only ask you to contribute towards the travel costs.
The sooner you book, the more likely it is for the photographer to be free on the date requested. We sometimes have last-minute availability so definitely worth checking.
I always take a 20% deposit before the wedding, usually on the pre-wedding consultation. Then I provide the invoice as your confirmation. The remaining balance is required once I finish editing your photographs (typically around four weeks after the wedding). You can head over the timeline below to find out more.
I never delete the images from the weddings. We store secured all of our archives. If anything should happen to your copy, we could dig them our from our files. Also, worth mentioning that we keep the RAW files too so we could always re-edit the photographs if there is a need.
It's entirely up to you. We're happy to travel. It can be a place where you met for the first time, a place that is special to you, our studio or your house—the more quirky, the better. If you trust us, we can choose/suggest the place for you.
You can also choose when you'd like to schedule it. We can even turn it into the post-wedding photo session. The only thing that you should keep in mind is that we do complimentary sessions only Monday-Friday. Weekends are rather busy for us 🙂
We simply use another one! We bring at least two cameras each and other backup equipment on the day, so we've got your photographs covered.
We collaborate with several brilliant photographers. Even if one of us is already booked, you can still book the second shooter.
There will be the photographer of your choice, and as a second shooter, it could be Maciek, Monika or one of our freelancers. If only one of us is available on the wedding day, we usually book someone that we've worked with before. If you prefer having both of us on your wedding day, please let us know as soon as you can so we can save the date for you.
It has never happened (touch wood) however we're aware that anything could happen. We try to be ready for any eventuality. If I'm not well enough to cover your wedding, the other half of MTstudio would be my choice. If Maciek/Monika is booked, then we have a network of freelancers we work with and shoot similar style to ours. If you're not happy with either of these, we will refund the deposit.
Good things come to those who wait, right? 🙂 We're doing what we can to edit as quickly as possible without dropping the quality. We usually send a sneak peek photographs a couple days after the wedding (usually Monday after the weekend of the wedding). Then the rest of the photos we try to deliver 4 weeks after the wedding.
Weather is the only thing we can't control on the wedding day so don't stress too much about it. It rarely rains through the whole day, and I'm sure we'll be able to sneak out between showers 🙂 We always suggest to buy an umbrella and a pair of wellies, just in case. If you're brave enough, we are still able to take photos in the rain, and beautiful moody pictures will definitely tell the story. We wrote about rainy weddings on our blog.
If it happens on your engagement / pre-wedding session, we can always find another date and keep our fingers crossed here.
Yes. We do print albums. We let you choose the photographs and we'll make the design together with you. You can find out more about our album offers.
As any other photographer, we're not very keen on sharing raw files. Raw files are incomplete part of the final product.
Yes. We're both insured as well as our equipment. Please let us know if you require our PLC.
