Questions, answered.

Booking, pricing & delivery

How far in advance should we book?

Saturdays in peak wedding season (May–September) in Bucharest and Ilfov book 12–18 months ahead. Brand and event shoots usually need 2–4 weeks. Check your date with the inquiry form — we reply within 24 hours, in English or Romanian, whichever you prefer.

How much is the deposit and how do I pay it?

A 30% deposit reserves your date. You can pay it online by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay when you book; the balance is due 14 days before the shoot.

Do you charge travel fees in Bucharest and Ilfov?

No. We cover all of Bucharest and Ilfov County — Snagov, Corbeanca, Mogoșoaia, Otopeni, Voluntari, Pipera and everywhere in between — at no travel fee. For venues more than about 40 km from the city, a small fee is shown in the quote calculator.

When will we receive our photos and film?

You get a sneak peek within 72 hours, the full photo gallery within 4–6 weeks and the edited film within 8–10 weeks.

Can we choose which photos are edited?

Yes. You receive a private online gallery where you mark favourites and leave notes; we use your selection for the album and any extra retouching.

What if we get stuck in Bucharest traffic on the day?

We build traffic buffers into every timeline, leave early for venues in Ilfov and always arrive before you do. Every camera also records to two cards and we carry spare bodies and lenses, so nothing is left to chance.

How many photos will we receive?

Typically 60–80 edited photos per hour of coverage — roughly 700+ for a full day with two photographers.

Can you cover preparations in two different parts of Bucharest?

Yes. With two photographers we split up for the bride’s and groom’s preparations — even if one is in Sector 1 and the other in Voluntari — and meet again at the church or venue.

Can you fly a drone at our wedding in Bucharest?

Central Bucharest and the area around Otopeni airport are restricted airspace, so drone shots in the city are rare. In most of Ilfov — Snagov, Corbeanca, Mogoșoaia — we can fly with the right permits, which we request for you.

Do you issue invoices for companies?

Yes, we invoice as a registered Romanian company based in Bucharest and can work with purchase orders and framework contracts.

How do you handle the timing between the church and the restaurant?

We arrive at the church 20–30 minutes early for details and family photos, cover the service, then drive ahead to the restaurant to photograph the setting before guests arrive. In Bucharest and Ilfov we plan the route around Sunday traffic, which is usually light.

Which moments of the Orthodox christening do you capture?

All of them: the renunciation at the church door, the blessing of the water, the triple immersion, the anointing with holy chrism, the white garment and candle, the tonsure, the first communion and the godparents receiving the baby. If you celebrate the first birthday on the same day, we also cover the traditional tăierea moțului.

When will we receive the photos and the film?

You get a sneak peek within 72 hours, the full online gallery within 2–3 weeks and the edited film within 4–6 weeks.
