Are you open to travel?

I’m happy to travel anywhere for your wedding! I love exploring new places and capturing wedding moments in different parts of the country. Travel fees will apply, but traveling is a big part of who I am as a person and photographer. I especially enjoy photographing elopements and small ceremonies with fewer than fifty guests, but I also love big weddings! I have a “Bucket List” of wedding spots where I’ll photograph your wedding for free. You just pay for our stay, travel, and food. This lets couples get professional photos at dream locations without extra photography costs. If you’re interested, contact me to check details and availability. “Bucket List” Locations: Hilton Head SC; Martha’s Vineyard MA; Florida, specifically the Florida Keys, Navarre Beach and Panama City; Myrtle Beach area and Charleston SC; Alaska; California; Montana; Savannah Georgia; Any Islands.

Do you offer video services?

Yes, I offer video with my Wedding packages. I believe this will truly enhance your experience. By incorporating video, we can capture the essence of your special day in a dynamic way, preserving both sights and sounds. This addition complements the photography, allowing you to relive those cherished moments for years to come.

Do you edit photos?

Yes, without a doubt. You can rest assured that each and every photo you receive from me will undergo a comprehensive editing process. I will meticulously work on making necessary adjustments to enhance the overall appearance of the photos. This includes refining the color tones and brightness levels to ensure the best possible outcome. However, it is important to note that I do not engage in Photoshop editing to change a client's aesthetic appearance, such as weight loss, altering original hair color, or enhancing figures, etc. I strongly believe in embracing and loving who you are and how God made you.

We aren’t photogenic, will you pose us?

Let me begin by assuring you that you are naturally photogenic and there's no need to question that! During the photoshoot, I guide you in a way that doesn't feel stiff or posed. My aim is to capture the authentic story of your connection, and I want you to feel completely at ease. I will provide gentle direction and prompts throughout the session to capture those spontaneous moments of genuine smiles and laughter.

Will you provide a Wedding Day timeline?

Absolutely! As the Owner and Main photographer at Portraits By Lisa Marie, I take immense pleasure in offering my couples comprehensive assistance with crafting the perfect timeline for their wedding day. I understand the weight of the task at hand, as planning such a momentous occasion can often feel daunting. That's precisely why I am committed to guiding you through the process smoothly. Together, we will collaborate on finalizing an impeccable schedule of events and a thoughtfully tailored shot list, ensuring that every desired photo opportunity is accounted for. Rest assured that on your special day, I will be by your side, diligently checking off each and every box, capturing the most precious moments for you to cherish for a lifetime.

How would you describe your editing style?

When it comes to my editing style, it can be summarized as a perfect combination of true-to-life, refined, and genuine with a touch of vintage charm. I have a deep understanding and expertise in this field, which allows me to skillfully remove any unwanted or distracting elements from your photographs. However, my main focus is to enhance the natural beauty of the shot, paying attention to the colors and overall atmosphere. I strive to maintain a sense of authenticity and avoid outdated editing trends that could result in dull-looking grass or unnatural-looking skin tones. Ultimately, I believe in the lasting power of love, and my goal is for your photos to capture and reflect that timeless allure.

How many hours on a Wedding is needed for photography?

At Portraits By Lisa Marie, my average couple typically hires me for a duration of eight to ten hours. Preserving your precious memories is of paramount importance to me, and it is my sincere intention to capture every significant moment of your wedding day. Therefore, I would never want to prematurely depart from your event before documenting all the scheduled events that you'll undoubtedly want photos of. By allowing for ample time in the timeline, we can ensure that every aspect of your wedding, including the moments leading up to the ceremony where the bride and groom are getting ready, is seamlessly woven together to create a comprehensive narrative. This way, when you look back on your special day, you can relive the emotions and the journey from the beginning until the end. It is my utmost desire to eliminate any potential feelings of rush or overwhelm during the photography process. Cutting back on time to cut costs on your wedding day may seem like a tempting option, but it can potentially hinder the capture of unexpected, yet magnificent moments. Unforeseen circumstances beyond our control may arise, and without reserving adequate time, these moments could be missed. Therefore, it is crucial to prioritize the allocation of sufficient time to ensure that nothing is overlooked and that your wedding memories are preserved beautifully.

What is included in the complimentary engagement shoot?

I'd love to connect with you as a couple before your wedding. Let's celebrate your engagement together and capture some playful moments with the camera. It's important to me to create cherished memories with my own partner, which is why a couples session is always included when you book my services. The session lasts 90 minutes and you'll receive all the photos except for duplicates and small errors. If I can't be there in person for your wedding, a trusted associate will provide an engagement session.

How do we receive our images?

I have a convenient and accessible approach to delivering your stunning high-resolution images to you. I utilize an online gallery, which provides you with the flexibility to access your photos from any location and at any time. Not only can you effortlessly download your images, but your friends and your loved ones can also conveniently access the online gallery as well. Rest assured that your gallery guarantees a seamless and trustworthy experience for preserving your cherished memories. Wedding clients with certain packages have the option to choose from digital and physical wedding albums to preserve their memories beautifully. My packages are tailored to fit your wishes, ensuring every special moment is captured for lasting memories.

When do we get our photos back?

I totally understand the excitement of capturing those special moments, whether it's your wedding day, a family session, or a milestone session. I know you're eager to share your beautiful photos with the world and relive those cherished memories. However, I believe in delivering nothing short of perfection, and that takes time. I want you to adore every single image I provide that I pour my heart and soul into, which is why I ask for your patience. For my wedding clients, my contract includes a turnaround time of eight to fourteen weeks for editing (not including weekends). However, I do my best to give you a little sneak peek two weeks after Wedding Day. As for my regular sessions, we aim to have your final edits ready within 7-10 business days.

Do I have insurance?

Absolutely! I am pleased to inform you that my business is fully compliant and possesses the necessary insurance coverage for myself and staff. Should you require any proof of insurance, I would be more than happy to provide it to you without delay.
