FAQ

FUN FACT: all couples think this prior to their session...
But it's never the outcome!
But i get it, It's daunting being on the otherside of the camera, I've been there myself!
My job is to make sure you feel relaxed so you don't feel awkard & i promise the end result will not look awkward at all.

As a wedding Photographer i know what works well,
So helping you with your timeline is a must for me!
Once my couples book me as their photographer you will receive a guide that outlines the best way we can put together a timelime for your special day.

a huge YES.
I think engagment sessions are a great way to 'break the ice'
I know getting your photographs taken for the first time can be overwhelming so it's a really great way for me to see how you guys respond to my creative cues. These sessions take place during the week (mon-fri) during sunset. 

I don't like to set a limit on the number of images you receive.
It really depends on a number of things!
1. What coverage you choose, the longer i'm there - the more images you get.

2. How many people are at your wedding.
3. Will there be a second shooter?

Keep in mind that i prefer quality over quantity,
On average my couples generally receive around 800 images.

Alex is an absolute dream to work with. She is professional, kind, understanding, and made our day flow so smoothly. Her communication from day one put us both at ease; we always knew what was happening, when it was happening, and what Alex needed from us to ensure our day was beautiful. Alex's expertise in photography cannot be understated. We included an engagement shoot in our package, and I highly recommend this for future brides. Alex puts you at ease in the shoot, giving explicit instructions to get the best out of you as a couple to ensure you feel comfortable and the photos look stunning. On our wedding day, Alex was a warm and comforting presence who captured absolutely dreamy photographs. Everyone I have shown photos to has commented on how beautiful they are. She has a knack for capturing the small moments and the joy of your day.

The minute I saw some wedding photos from Alexandra Penelope Photography, I knew I needed Alex for our wedding! Alex was amazing! Affordable, kind, bubbly and easy to work with! Alex’s communication was wonderful from the minute we contacted her and she did the most perfect job at capturing our special day! Thanks to Alex we have the most perfect photos captured from our big day! Alex had the photos back to us in a very reasonable time frame too which was amazing! We couldn’t recommend a better photographer for your big day!

How can I become more natural in front of the camera?

Is there anything my partner and I can do to practice being less awkward in front of the camera? We are very shy. Or is it purely up to the photographer we pick?

Alexandra Penelope Photography

I actually have this question asked frequently by my clients! 
The less you think about how awkward you may look in front of my lens, the more natural you are portrayed in an image.
I beleive being yourself is key - my approach is very authentic, i give direction where needed but it's really about letting your true self around your significant other shine through by good banter & affection. You'd be surprised what can be acheived just by being yourself around your partner.

What questions are important to ask of potential wedding photographers?

Aside from price of course. What should we be asking photographers to help us narrow down our selection?

Alexandra Penelope Photography

Most importantly - ask for their advice & opions on everything wedding related!
Most of us have worked more then a handful of weddings, therefore we generally have a list of amazing vendors that can also be of great help to plan your dream wedding day!

What happens during a pre-wedding or engagement photo shoot?

I think an engagement shoot could be nice but I'd love to be more comfortable about what normally happens at one of these, obviously it's different to the wedding. I'm pretty awkward in front of the camera.

Alexandra Penelope Photography

A pre-wedding session is a really great way to 'break the ice' with your wedding photographer,
It also means you get some romantic photos before the big day - win win right?! 
Speaking from a creative perspective & as a photographer i think its really important to know your couple which is best acheived by doing a pre wedding session prior to your big day. We will go over a few promts/poses i may throw at you on your day so you feel less awkard in the moment as well.
