Experience

An overview of my process for the JM Bride for an exclusive experience.

"It was the most perfect day and we just feel so blessed that we were in such good hands."

Thank you so much for these amazing pictures!!! We absolutely love all of them and just thank you for perfectly capturing this day. We couldn’t have asked for a better photographer.

"Jeanne far exceeded my already high expectations."

As I said before she is amazing, her work is truly art and she has such a talent for capturing magical moments. All of her pictures of our wedding day were perfection.

What is Your Pricing?

I don’t publish my pricing online, collections start at $4500 and because I have so many destination couples, I will customize a proposal to suit your wedding day and any other festivities you’re wanting to have covered. Many of our couples will add on family outings, rehearsal dinner, or any other soiree you may have during your stay on our amazing Hawaiian islands.

Do You Travel?

Absolutely, I’m asked to travel to Maui, Kauai, Hawaii (Big Island), Lanai often and have photographed weddings in New York City, Charleston, Provence, Tuscany, Seattle, Portland, Los Angeles and San Diego. If you’re looking to have your wedding outside of Oahu, there are travel fees involved such as air fare, hotel, car rental and meals. In general, we arrive two days before your event and will leave the day after. Just depends on the time zones in which are traveling to.

What Kind of Equipment do You Use?

 I photograph with Canon gear and equipment. From the Canon 5d Mark iii and L Series Lenses. I love my 70-200mm IS L, 50 1.4mm USM. Being a fine art photographer, Iʻm a film shooter as well. I use the Pentax 645 system and my favorite film is Fuji 400h. Some clients just love the way film looks that you can not get with digital. I promise I have more in my bag, prepared for almost any situation.

Do You Work with a Second Shooter?

When you book me as your photographer, I am the one showing up on your wedding day to photograph. I usually bring an assistant with me to help with lighting, carrying equipment, wrangling guests for family formals and making sure I don’t fall into those pesky holes kids dig at the beach. Yes, I have fallen into them! Sometimes couples who are having a large wedding have the need for a second photographer which, I totally understand. Please let me know when you inquire that you’re interested in having a second shooter in addition to an assistant so I may quote you accordingly.

Do you provide Video Services?

I do not. I am a photographer and I want to be the best photographer that I can be without having to also manage a video staff too. I know several cinematographers that I love working with. In fact, we work so well together, it’s almost like having one company there for you as we believe in working as a team.

We want to head to a certain location for our engagement/bridal shoot. Are there any rules or permits we need to obtain?

This depends on where you’re getting married. If it’s a certain venue, all venues have their guidelines we need to follow. If you’re getting married on the beach (in Hawaii), then yes, you’ll need to have what is called a “Right of Entry” Permit. I can obtain this for you, your planner or you can even obtain one yourself.

How Many Images Will I Receive?

Depending on your coverage and the way your day unfolds, I average about 60-80 images per hour. It takes about four to six weeks for your images to be ready and uploaded to the web gallery. If you need images for thank you cards, we will provide a few for you.

Do you edit your images?

Yes, all images go through a hand selected process and are edited. I’ll go over each image again, selecting a handful with some extra attention to them (that is why it takes 4-6 weeks). If your collection comes with an album, all images are crafted for printing. Blemishes removed, hairs fixed etc.

Do I Receive the Hi-Res Files?

Yes. The images that appear in your gallery are Hi-Res images and when you download them they will be as well. 

Do we get the Copyright of our images?

I get this asked of me a lot and there is some confusion over “Copyright” and “License”.
As the maker of your images, the artist and I own the copyright to them. Do some artists sell the copyright to their work? Yes, they can and do. I provide a License for your images, meaning you can print, post and share as you wish.

Can I Receive the RAW Files?

RAW images are not available to view or for purchase. Part of the reason you hire us, is that we process them (the RAW Files) into beautiful images that you trust us to create.

What if we want to purchase extra prints?

Your digital files are delivered via web gallery. You may download the images and print them yourself. Or I highly suggest sending them to the lab I use. It’s the same lab I use for your album and I can guarantee the color output. I have seen what has happened using a cheaper solution and the colors are all off. Either way, you have permission to print wherever you’d like.

How does the Album Process work?

There is nothing I get more joy from then designing your wedding album. After your gallery is delivered, you’ll be able to pick out how many images are included with your collection (yes, you may add as many images as you’d like for an extra fee). We’ll have another consultation to go over your picks, I then go in and design your album for you. You’ll receive a link to view, make changes and approve your album. One it has been approved, I’ll send it off to the lab. It usually takes 4-6 weeks for it to be produced.

Do you offer engagement sessions?

Yes! I do! Engagement session are typically scheduled for Monday - Thursday because of our weekend schedule and here in Hawaii most locations get quite crowded on the weekends as locals like to enjoy the outdoors too. If you’re looking for me to travel to where you are, please inquire in order for us to have a zoom call to discuss your details

Do you have Insurance?

Yes, absolutely! I have enough insurance that the state of Hawaii and many venues require me to have in order to obtain my permits.

When should we book you for our wedding?

As soon as you have your venue booked. I get booked up pretty quickly and I do not hold dates without a retainer. If you’re wanting an engagement session, then at least 9-12 months in advance.
