We've already told you. We deeply believe that the best way to tell your wedding day’s story is to become an integral part of it: it shouldn’t be a cold and detached reportage, nor a photoshoot built according to the needs of the photographer. You can’t convey its emotion, trepidation, poignancy and fun if you don’t feel them yourself. So we will photograph, talk, play, drink, dance with you all day long. If you don't feel like having fun with us maybe we’re not your photographers ;-)
Our offers include the chance to choose between a single photographer/ videomaker and two photographers/videomakers. Our suggestion is to choose the full staff: the second photographer is not a whim. It allows you to better manage the day’s timing by avoiding unnecessary waiting, to have a second point of view in key moments and therefore also the certainty that nothing will be missed, and to leave the first photographer free to follow stages of the day that are just as important as the main protagonists of it.
We are deeply convinced that the human relationship comes before the professional one. For this reason we want to introduce ourselves to you first as human beings, rather than as photographers: with our fears and our certainties, with our likes and dislikes. And we want the one that will accompany you through that day, those hours, to be the most compatible with you of us, to be able to best understand your desires and anxieties and preserve and recount your emotions. Would you like to get to know us? Check out our profiles! Do you want to find out who will be your photographer? Play with us!
Of course. We will gladly accompany you anywhere in the world and follow you to discover new places and situations. Submit the craziest proposals to us... we will welcome them with enthusiasm!
We Elabers are not used to giving a limit to the photos that will be taken on that day: we will photograph everything that happens because we wouldn’t want to do it any other way. As for the number of hours included, we offer a basic four-hour package and several eight-hour packages, or an unlimited package. The choice is always yours!
Of course! Our mission that day is to capture the most beautiful and fun moments of the party and turn them into memories that will last forever. However we are aware that posed portrait photography cannot and must not be missing. We believe that these photographs, even when they’re not included in the album, are a fundamental complement to the memory of that day. But it is precisely for this reason that we will try to make photographs that can be creative and exciting while respecting this format. And if you want to organize a moment of creative sharing with your guests, we suggest you get to know more about our Elabooth, our refined and quality photo booth proposal, where fun and creativity meet.
Absolutely! Using a little discretion and not with our cameras!
In addition to the wedding reportage, in our list you will also find services such as Elopement, Engagement, Trash the Dress, The Morning After and much more!
It is not easy to estimate a price for these services, since every wedding is an event that involves multiple choices on your part that can influence it: where your wedding will take place, how long you want us to be there, how many people the staff will include, if you want to stop at the delivery of the high-resolution files or print an album, if you also want to make a video clip. For this reason, we have imagined for you a series of prêt-à-porter proposals, tailored to the structure of the events that we happen to photograph most frequently. But, if you prefer, you can compose your own tailor-made solution, choosing directly from our à la carte price list for your photos and video. And based on your choices we will be happy to prepare an exclusive offer dedicated to you.
All our packages include a predetermined number of processed and high- resolution files, including a selection of images chosen directly by the bride and groom during the first viewing of the files.
The number of photos delivered varies according to the number of photographers involved and the hours fixed for the shoot. On average, there are about 400 photos, post-produced and in high resolution, but it is always possible to agree on the delivery of a higher number of files.
Of course! Needless to say, it’s important to collect your wedding’s photographs inside a precious and durable album. You can choose from a wide selection of traditional and non-traditional albums, all made in Italy. The manufacturing companies we work with are a guarantee of the highest quality of the products. We know that memories must last over time. For this reason, all our albums are printed on paper and with inks that guarantee great durability, whether you choose Graphistudio's HD Print or our Fine Art print.
We scrupulously attend to each phase of the creative process to ensure high quality standards in post-production work, but above all to offer you our unique way of telling the story of the wedding. If you want to learn more about our workflow, please visit our SERVICES page. Clearly, the wedding season forces us to slow down production and speed it up in the winter months. The most onerous and important task for the photographer is precisely that of selecting the photos and constructing the story: the final result depends on this phase of the work, as much as it depends on the shots. We are confident that the result of our work will repay you for the wait. But if you are in a hurry to receive your photographs and video, we now provide the FAST DELIVERY solution. The choice is yours!
Of course, from the moment we deliver the files to you in high resolution you will be able to print your wedding photos whenever and wherever you want, although we remain at your disposal to provide you with quality prints in case you want to entrust us with this task.
Sure, you can browse them in the Testimonials section.
There’s no right time to do it. It depends a lot on the period you have chosen for your wedding. It is generally advisable to book the photographer as soon as you have defined the locations for the ceremony and reception. Consider that especially the weekends from mid-April to October are the most popular. For this reason, we suggest that you schedule your appointment immediately!
Many of our clients do not live in Sicily. No problem! If you have difficulty visiting us physically we will be able to take care of you and make you feel at ease even with a remote meeting. We can get to know each other by video call on Skype or just by phone and manage everything smoothly. So, what are you waiting for?
It’s very simple! Contact us us to check if we’re available on the date you have chosen and, once you’ve confirmed it, you will only need to send a security deposit. You can pay as you like: by credit card, PayPal, bank transfer, etc.
