YOUR WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHY EXPERIENCE WITH MICHELE CONDE PHOTOGRAPHY

Your wedding photography is more than just getting gorgeous images.  Wedding photography is such an important part of your day.  It can set the tone for much of your wedding day and your whole wedding planning process.

This is such an exciting time in your life and, trust me, I know all too well how fast it goes by!  I’m sure your mind is racing with all that needs to be planned. It’s all very exciting, but it can also be somewhat overwhelming. After all, you’re planning the day that you’ve probably been anticipating your  whole life! My goal as a wedding photographer is to make this one aspect of  the planning process simple. Photography is more than just images, it’s a real part of your day and one of the most important wedding decisions you’ll make. Not only do you  deserve beautiful images, you also deserve an amazing photographic experience.

I am deeply committed to creating romantic, authentic, creative images that tell the story of your love, and to giving you the best wedding photography experience possible. I know how much my personality can set the tone for not only your wedding day but your whole wedding planning process; and I’m dedicated to do as much as I can to make sure things go smoothly for you and give you a fun, relaxed experience from start to finish. I also think chemistry is such a huge part of choosing your photographer (I mean, I am with you pretty much the WHOLE day and interacting with everyone you know!), and I love walking into wedding day with my couples feeling like I am an old friend instead of just a “random” vendor.   (You can read some reviews on the Knot. to get a better sense of what it’s like to work with me.)

From the moment we meet I will be focused on how I can provide you with the best wedding photography experience, including taking time to get to know you and your fiance and learning all about what you have planned for your wedding. I also work hard to keep us organized and on schedule both leading up to the wedding day and on wedding day, and we will go over the whole process in our first meeting so you have a better idea of what to expect along the way.

I offer a range of wedding photography collections built specifically for the modern bride which include such things as engagement sessions, digital files, and the highest quality flushmount wedding albums.  Wedding Collections begin at $3500 and including wedding day coverage, an engagement session, an online gallery, and digital files with print release.

So let’s meet at Starbucks and get to know each other! I can’t wait to hear from you!

My Style

There are so many things that I absolutely adore about weddings… from the love between my couples to the fact that I can take split second moments and turn them into beautiful memories that will last a lifetime and beyond.  Like most ladies, I’m totally obsessed with all the beautiful pinterest inspired details at every wedding; but to be honest, it’s the emotional images of the authentic moments that really grab me and stay in my mind after the wedding.  It’s those images that I think best tell your love story. Whether it’s the anticipation of you getting ready with your bridesmaids, his reaction when he sees you for the first time, the tears during toasts or parent dances, or the way you look at each other when you have a moment to take it all in. I want to capture all those magical moments so that you can relive them over and over.  

I consider my style to be modern, creative, and romantic with bright, clean, colorful images.  I capture a mixed of posed images and candid moments because I think it’s the combination that best tells your love story.   I love getting emotional pictures of the two of you interacting (the sweet glances, the laughs, the romantic embraces, the smile that doesn’t want to leave your face), and even during the  formal session, that is really my goal.

FAQs

Where are you located?

I am located north of Boston, and regularly travel throughout New England for weddings.  I am available for a select number of destination weddings as well so if you are out of the area or are planning a warm tropical wedding (especially in the winter!), let's chat!


Do you customize wedding photography packages?

Absolutely!  I offer packages that bundle the most popular services and products, but I am happy to customize a package just for you.  I offer wedding day packages beginning at $3400 and most couples spend about $4600.


Should we have a second photographer for our wedding?

Yes!  I can never be in two places at once; plus having a second photographer gives you another perspective on your special day.  A second photographer can cover the groom getting ready while I’m with the bride, or reception set up while I’m doing family pictures.  At other parts of the day having a second photographer provides you with a second creative perspective and gives you a more diverse and complete wedding story.


How much time should we set aside on for wedding portraits?

I recommend 40-45 minutes of time to take pictures of the two of you! (This does not include the time needed for family and wedding party photos.)  Blocking out this time will give you both a beautiful collection of photographs and a chance to spend time together apart from the hustle and bustle of your wedding day.


Do you shoot more than one event on my wedding day?

Never.  When you book with me, the day is yours!


How long does it take to receive my photos?

On average, it will be about 6 weeks until your final gallery is ready. During the busiest parts of the wedding season, editing can take longer, but I do my best to sneak peek a few of my personal favorites within a week.


How will we receive our photos?

Your engagement images will be presented in an online gallery that allows download directly from the site.  Your wedding images are also presented online so that you can easily share them with familly and friends and/or order prints.  You will also receive a usb drive with your digital files for your convenience.

Are we allowed to print or share our images online?

Absolutely!  You will receive a print release with your images that allows you to print and share the unwatermarked images for personal use.  And I just love seeing that you love your images so much that you are sharing them on social media so share away!

Do you offer products such as canvas prints, coffee table books, and albums?

Of course! I work with the best vendors in the industry to bring my clients products that show off their beautiful photographs, and I can show you some album samples when we meet.

We love your work!  How do we book you for our wedding?

With a signed contract and paid, nonrefundable retainer the date is yours!  I love to  meet my couples ahead of time, when possible, so give me a call and let's set something up!
