♥ WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY FAQs 

HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR SHOOTING STYLE?

Our approach blends refined reportage with fine art portraiture, creating images that are both emotionally authentic and aesthetically timeless.

From the intimate moments of your preparations to elegant couple portraits and natural group shots, your wedding day is documented with discretion, sensitivity, and an editorial eye. The result is a collection of images that not only tell your story, but allow you to relive it for years to come.

WHAT IS YOUR APPROACH?

Our work is rooted in authenticity and storytelling. We gently observe, allowing moments to unfold naturally, capturing emotions as they truly are — often without you even noticing our presence. We believe the most meaningful images are created when you feel completely at ease. Our role is to document the many facets of your day in a way that feels effortless, refined, and genuine.

IS A SECOND PHOTOGRAPHER IMPORTANT?

A second photographer allows for a richer, more comprehensive visual narrative. While one of us focuses on key moments, the other captures subtle reactions, alternative angles, and spontaneous interactions. From guests arriving at the ceremony to emotional expressions during the vows, multiple perspectives ensure nothing is missed.

Given our commitment to excellence and attention to detail, we always work with an assistant — this is included in our service.

WHAT KIND OF EQUIPMENT DO YOU USE?

We exclusively use top-of-the-line professional Canon equipment and premium lenses, ensuring exceptional image quality in every lighting condition.

CAN YOU DESCRIBE YOUR WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY PACKAGES?

Every wedding is unique, and our coverage is tailored accordingly.

We offer collections ranging from 6 to 12 hours, depending on your vision and requirements.

Our Gold Collection (12 hours of coverage) offers a complete storytelling experience and typically includes:

• bridal preparations
• groom and guests before the ceremony
• the wedding ceremony
• formal family portraits
• editorial-style couple portraits
• detail shots of the venue and reception
• the grand entrance
• cake cutting
• first dance
• evening celebrations

We would be delighted to share detailed pricing with you. As each wedding is entirely bespoke, we invite you to email us with your plans so we can provide a personalised proposal. For further information, please contact us via our contact page or email us at contact@erreaphotographt.com.

WHAT IS REQUIRED TO RESERVE OUR WEDDING DATE?

A 50% retainer is required to secure your date, with the remaining balance due one week before the wedding. Once your contract is signed and the retainer received, your date is exclusively reserved for you.

WHAT DIGITAL FORMAT DO YOU DELIVER?

You will receive your full-resolution edited JPEG files, ready for professional printing. In addition, we provide web-optimised versions, allowing you to easily share your images online while maintaining quality.

WHEN WILL WE RECEIVE OUR PHOTOS?

Shortly after your wedding, we will send a curated preview selection. Your complete gallery will be delivered within approximately 12–16 weeks, depending on the season and our workload. Each image is individually refined to ensure the highest standard.

DO YOU ALSO OFFER VIDEOGRAPHY?

Yes. We collaborate with a highly talented videographer whose work aligns seamlessly with our aesthetic. We would be pleased to share further details, subject to availability.

DO YOU OFFER WEDDING ALBUMS?

Wedding albums are offered separately, allowing you to choose a bespoke design experience. We believe that digital files can never replace the tactile beauty of a printed heirloom. An album is the final expression of your wedding story — a timeless piece to be treasured and passed down through generations. For this reason, we partner exclusively with Graphistudio, one of the world’s most prestigious album manufacturers, available only to professional photographers.

Your album will be custom-designed in collaboration with you, resulting in a piece that is both elegant and deeply personal.

WHERE ARE YOU BASED AND DO YOU TRAVEL?

We are based in Verona, Northern Italy, and photograph weddings throughout Italy and internationally. Travel within 60km is included. For destinations beyond this, travel arrangements are quoted transparently at the time of booking. If accommodation is required, only direct reimbursement of the charges is requested.

HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD WE BOOK?

Many couples secure their date several months — sometimes over a year — in advance. Once your contract is signed and your retainer received, we dedicate our full attention and commitment to your wedding day.

SHOULD WE SIGN A CONTRACT?

A contract ensures clarity and transparency, outlining all agreed services and protecting both parties. It also serves as confirmation of your booking.

If you feel our vision aligns with yours, we would be honoured to hear about your wedding plans.

Please get in touch — we look forward to creating something truly meaningful together.
