We recommend 2-4 weeks for family portraits. Plan ahead and contact us with your wedding date to check availability. Holiday sessions fill up quickly, so early booking is encouraged.

Do you travel to outdoor locations for photo sessions?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we love outdoor sessions! We photograph at parks, beaches, gardens, urban locations, and private properties throughout NJ and NYC.

Question 9

Do you offer photography services in Spanish?

Accepted Answer

Sí — se habla español. Founder and lead photographer Manny Cordero speaks Spanish, and every service we offer — wedding photography and videography, engagement sessions, family portraits, holiday sessions, quinceañeras and event coverage, and FAA-licensed drone scenes — can be planned and photographed entirely in Spanish, from the first consultation to gallery delivery.

Question 10

Do you tip your wedding photographer?

Accepted Answer

Tipping is never required or expected, but if you'd like to, 10–15% of your total package or $50–$100 per photographer for exceptional service is a common range. Many couples handle it the same way they tip their catering or venue staff.

Question 11

How many hours of wedding photography do I need?

Accepted Answer

Most full-day weddings — getting-ready through the first hour of reception dancing — need 8 to 10 hours of coverage. A shorter or more intimate wedding can often work well with 4 to 6. We'll help you map the right number for your specific timeline during your consultation.
