Objections we hear

What wedding venues usually ask before signing off

Can we schedule around live weddings?

Yes — most venue shoots run on a mid-week non-event day, or immediately before an evening event using an early call time.

Do we need to dress the venue?

Full styling isn't essential, but a light dressing pack (linen, florals, table setting on one showcase table) lifts the imagery dramatically. Recommendations are supplied ahead of the shoot.

Who owns the images?

The venue holds a perpetual commercial licence covering all marketing use. The underlying copyright stays with the photographer but doesn't restrict venue usage in any way.

Can we get raw files?

Raws aren't standard, but full-resolution TIFFs and print-ready JPGs are included for brochure use.
