Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Who photographs my wedding? How long are you there for?
A. We (Richard & Andrea) photograph all weddings, events, and sessions. We haven't photographed a wedding that isn't under 8 hours so we dedicate the entire day to you. Being there the entire day allows us to capture the most important moments, the ones you'll look back and have a laugh at or tell a story about. We will not photograph you pretending to get ready or pretending to cut the cake. We will be there documenting it all as it happens!!
Q. Do you only photograph weddings?
A. We consider ourselves Wedding & Portrait Family Photographers. We’ve photographed couples from their engagement all the way to their newborns and more and we’re honored to document their life story.
Q. How far in advance are you booked? How many bookings do you do a year?
A. We accept bookings as early as you start planning. Typically our clients book us 12 to 18 months before their event. We limit the number of bookings per year so that we can give each client the time and attention they deserve.
Q. We would love for you to photograph our wedding, how do we get started?
A. We are honored that you’re chosen us to be part of your big day. To finalize your wedding date with us, email us at info@richardbflores.com
Q. What are your prices?
A. We offer different prices for different types of events. Weddings start at $3500. We'd love to share with you all of our current collections which will serve as a basis and then we'll build from there. If you'd like to receive a copy of our current Wedding Magazine, please Contact Us and we'll be more than happy to send over all of the information you need.
Q. Can you recommend any Videographers?
A. Absolutely!! We enjoy working with different videographers and working together to capture the magical moments that take place on your day. We have a list of Videographers we would love to refer!
Q. Do you Design Wedding Albums? What kind of albums and prints do you offer?
A. Short Answer is YES, ABSOLUTELY but here's why we're so passionate about our albums!!
We're always so excited to share our custom made albums and all of our clients have the option to receive a Signature RichardBFlores Photography Album with their collections.
We consider our Albums a lifetime investment because 20, 30, 40+ years from now you will have something to physically show your family. You'll be investing in a piece of art that'll bring your back all of your memories, moments, stories, and all the instants that once took place back to life.
If you think about it...
How many things will have changed in your life 20+ years from now?
Your Car, Maybe Your House, Your Phones, Computer, Shoes, Clothing, Camera, Furniture, the list can go on and on..... BUT Your Album will remain. Those moments of your wedding, family, & friends, will be available for you to show your loved ones while everything else was replaced!
We've searched the industry to find some of the best albums and we're happy to have partnered with one of the best designers in the industry. Our album collection is completely customizable to fit your style and we have a beautiful selection of samples we would love to share with you.
Q. Why do you recommend Engagement Sessions? What do we get out of it? When do you photograph Engagement Sessions?
A. We include Engagement Sessions in some of our collections for many reasons. It's a great opportunity to have portraits of couples in a controlled environment. It's the perfect time for us to get a feel for our couples style and how they act in front of the camera. And, the most important reason is for us to get to know each other. Our Engagement Sessions are completely relaxed and they are meant to make our couples feel comfortable and to remove all camera fear and shyness. By the time their wedding day arrives they are confident, comfortable and pros in front of the camera. Because we photograph weddings primarily on weekends, we always schedule Engagement Sessions during the weekdays. Most of our sessions are scheduled in advance so it's a great opportunity to take a day and make it all about you!!
Q. What is included in my sessions?
A. I photograph all types of sessions. Sessions typically range anywhere from 2 to 3 hours depending on our main goal. All sessions include all your photos completely edited, and a Password Protected Online Gallery. For additional prints, albums, High Resolution USB, and more please ask for our Ala Carte menu.
Q. Do you travel to photograph weddings?
A. We love to travel and have worked and photographed weddings & sessions in Spain, Mexico, Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, Argentina, and throughout the United States. We're ready to go and all you would need to add to your collection is Airfare, Hotel, & Rental Car if needed for both myself and my partner.
Q. I am currently living out of state and would like to meet with you. What can I do to arrange a meeting?
A. We've had clients book us from China, Spain, Argentina, California, Colorado, South Carolina, Florida, Ohio, and more. Time difference or not, no worries. We'll be happy to setup a Virtual Video or phone meeting that works best for you.
