WHAT'S THE REAL DEAL HERE?

How do I set up a consultation with you?
Email Toni at getnegs@orchidphoto.net or call toll-free at (866) 610-9333.  Have a couple of appointment times in mind for our meeting.  We are based in West LA, but we can do a little traveling for a consultation.  If you can't make it to us, let's have a consultation over the phone or email.

Do you do posed or photojournalism?
We have a mostly photojournalistic style.  We are constantly looking for candid emotion and the unique details that make your day special.  We believe posed pictures are essential, but we work fast and keep the portrait time relaxed and natural.

Do you do albums?
Yes. About 40% of our brides have us to do their wedding album.  Most of them order them with a package to save some money.  If you are not interested in an album from us, we will give you suggestions on how to get a really cute inexpensive album made on your own.

Will I know who my photographer is before my wedding?
Yes!  Toni personally photographs all the weddings.  She also has a small team of photographers that she personally trained just in case of emergencies or if you would like to book with us, but Toni is not available.  You will always know exactly who your photographer is! Be Careful because there are companies out there who let you think the lead guy will be there, but they send someone else!

How much is it to reserve my wedding?
$800 is required to reserve your photographer. The remainder is due on the day of your wedding.

Do you take credit cards?
Yes, we certainly do! Visa, MasterCard, and Paypal are accepted.

When do I get my images?
You get your master CDs in 3 weeks after your wedding!  You will make all of your own prints from this CD. 

How do I print my images? Will you tell me where to go?
It's easy! We'll tell you where to go for the best prices and best quality. We know a ton of great places to have prints made!  Just hand the photo lab your CD and tell them what you'd like printed.   We'll also be sharing where to get unique albums made (cheap and easy!), and even how to get deals on frames. These are secrets just for clients though, so I can't spill the beans at the consultation!   ;)

What if I want you to make prints for me?
We'll can post your images to our online server and your friends and family will be able to order as much as they want.  We keep our print prices affordable too ($15 - 8x10). Be sure to ask at your consultation.

Do you do engagement sessions?  What are they?
Yes! Engagement sessions are $200 and include all of your images on a master CD within two weeks of your session. The purpose of this session is to get some great images of you and your fiancé in casual, non-wedding clothes.  The session only takes about 30 minutes.  We have 3 locations in West Los Angeles and Irvine to choose from.

How do I book with you?
Email us at getnegs@orchidphoto.net or call (310) 399-2780.  We'll set up a consultation or we'll email you the paperwork.
