FAQ

  1. DO YOU HAVE BACK UP GEAR?  Of course! So far I’ve never had a major equipment failure at a wedding (knock on wood) – but I have backups for everything. Just in case.
  2. ARE YOU INSURED?  I am! If your venue needs to see proof of insurance, please let me know at least two weeks prior to your wedding date.
  3. IS YOUR BUSINESS LEGIT? DO YOU CHARGE SALES TAX?  Yes, my business is on the up and up, and I do charge sales tax since the state of New York says I have to. My official business name is Katie Jane Photography LLC, and I make sure all my business practices are in accordance with local laws and regulations.
  4. WHEN WILL WE SEE OUR PHOTOGRAPHS AFTER THE WEDDING?  You will see a sneak peek on my blog within 48 hours after the event! After that it generally takes 6 to 8 weeks to fully post process your images. When you book, I will give you the exact date that you can expect to see your beautiful images.
  5. WHAT IS THE BIGGEST PIECE OF ADVICE YOU GIVE COUPLES?  Give yourself extra time for everything. Everything just takes longer on your wedding day, so if you think getting dressed will only take 10 minutes… plan on it taking 30. Time seems to just disappear on your wedding day, so give yourself extra.
  6. HOW FAR IN ADVANCE SHOULD WE BOOK?  For weekday elopements, I’m more flexible, but you should still book at least a month in advance if you can. (Although sometimes I’m available last minute – so feel free to inquire even if your wedding is in a few days. If I’m already booked, chances are I know someone AWESOME who isn’t and can refer you!) For weekends, however, I tend to get booked up about six months to a year in advance.
  7. DO YOU BLOG EVERY WEDDING?  I certainly do! One of the reasons people hire me is because they want me to tell their story in a way that they can share with their friends and family. I do that through the blog and through the custom slideshow that comes with each elopement. I also submit many weddings to magazines and wedding blogs, and if yours is accepted for publication, I’ll be sure to let you know, so you can share it with everyone!
  8. I STILL HAVE QUESTIONS!  Great! Just drop me a note, and I’ll get back to you within 24 hours!
