The cost of wedding Photography?:
Answer: Since a wedding isn't something you plan everyday most  couples are not familiar with the cost of wedding photography. The  price for the majority of weddings in the U.S.  currently range from approximately $1500 to $4000 with an average of $2800.  With prices starting at $895 we feel we  offer quality service at very reasonable rates. 

:What is your wedding style or philosophy?
Answer: Our wedding style can best be summed up in one word - "EMOTION".  In addition to taking  all the normal pictures you would expect any photographer to capture,  we strive to capture the emotion of your day.  The galleries on this website will give you a good example of the emotional pictures we are constantly looking for and striving to capture throughout your wedding day.

How do I set an appointment?:
Answer: To set an appointment, just contact us either by e-mail or phone.  At that time we will set an appointment to come to you for a personal interview.  It's our custom to come to you so you can view our work in the comfort of your home without distraction.

What can I expect at the interview?:
Answer: At the interview we will show you examples of our work from recent weddings and explain what we do and how we do it.  We'll answer any questions you may have and determine your needs for wedding day coverage.

Do you use digital photography equipment or film?:
Answer: We use professional digital photography equipment.  As technology advances, professional photographers should advance as well.  Digital photography allows us to do so much more with your portraits than film.  What it means for average sized portraits is greater detail, a much finer photograph.

Who chooses the prints we get in our package?:
Answer:  We believe that you should be the one to choose the prints you want in your package, not us.  When your proofs from your wedding are ready for viewing, we'll show you all the shots taken.  From the entire collection you will choose the prints of your choice. 

How will I view my proofs and make my selections?:
Answer: When your proofs from the wedding are ready for viewing we will send you a copy of your pictures on a CD or DVD so you can review and make your selections in the privacy and comfort of your own home.

Can I keep the negatives?:
Answer: Absolutely!   These are high resolution files, the same ones we use to print any pictures you request..

What about copyright laws?:
Answer: Precious Memories USA retains the copyright for your photographs, yet specific permission is granted in your contract for personal use and printing. You can make copies and share them, but they cannot be used for commercial purposes without express written consent from us.

Are your photographers experienced wedding professionals?:
Answer: Precious Memories USA has strict standards and specific guidelines for our photographers.  Our photographers are experienced professionals and must participate in the continued advancement of their photographic skills through classes and workshops; must dress appropriately for each event; must conduct themselves in a professional manner exhibiting politeness and courteousness to each and every person they encounter.  At Precious Memories USA we pride ourselves on our customer service.

If I need touch-ups to my photographs, can you do this and is there additional costs?:
Answer: If you have a blemish on your wedding day, or if you need touch-ups for any reason, don't panic!  We are experienced touch-up artists.  Our goal is to provide you with the very best of our capabilities without adding great expense to you.

What payment options are available?:
Answer:   We want to make it as easy as possible for you to have photographs to preserve the memories of your wedding day.  So, we allow you to split your payments.  This allows you to get what you really want without having to pay for it all at once.  In most cases, you can make three separate payments.  If special arrangements are needed, don't hesitate to let us know.  All brides should have memories of their wedding and we would like to help make that possible.

How do I know if you are available for my date?:
Answer: Every page of this website (including this one) has a place for you to check to see if we are available for your wedding day.  Simply enter your date and the info requested and you will know whether or not we are booked for that day or if we're available.  Or, you may contact us at 214-629-8007.

How far in advance should I book your services?:
Answer: If you are wanting us to cover your wedding, you should set an appointment for an interview at the earliest possible date.  Many dates (mostly Saturdays) book up 6, 9 or 12 months in advance.  We suggest you check your date here at our website and contact us A.S.A.P. if your date is available.

What is required to book your services?:
Answer: Contact us for an interview.  We will come to you and discuss your plans and options for wedding day photography.  At that time you may  select a package for the coverage you desire, go over the contract and make a down payment of $250 to secure our services for your wedding day.

What is your wedding style and philosophy?:
Answer: Our wedding style can best be summed up in one word - "EMOTION".  In addition to taking  all the normal pictures you would expect any photographer to capture,  we strive to capture the emotion of your day.  The galleries on this website will give you a good example of the emotional pictures we are constantly looking for and striving to capture throughout your wedding day.
