The wedding photography package

Your photography package will be custom-tailored to fit the vision you have. However, there are some details I never leave out. Each Schwalbs wedding package includes the following:

BOOK YOUR CALL

The process

From here, all you have to do is share your vows and dance the night away!

I like to stay in contact with my couples, so you always feel comfortable reaching out to me before the big day. A few months before your wedding, you'll complete a detailed questionnaire, including what family and friends you want special photos with, so I can perfectly plan a photography schedule that captures the moments and people that matter most. Two months before your wedding, we'll have another call to check in and discuss the timeline. Then we'll have one final call a week before to iron out any final details and make sure you feel 100% prepared and confident.

It's imporant to cherish your engagement period, and that means capturing it in professional pictures to keep forever. We'll schedule an engagement session early, so we can all get to know one another and you and your partner can get comfortable being in front of my camera. This also gives you stunning photos to use for invitations, as decorations, and to share on social media with friends and family.

After our call, I'll send you a full, custom proposal with the details, including a contract and deposit invoice to make it official and reserve your wedding date.

Fill out the inquiry form to start the process. From there, we'll schedule a call to chat through all of your wedding details, so I can learn your vision for the day.

What About Engagement Sessions?

I include a complimentary engagement session (you’re welcome!) with every wedding package. This session is the best way for us to get to know each other and for you two to get comfortable in front of the camera. You’ll be so much happier with your wedding photos when you know how to pose and how to follow my directions because we already practiced! Plus, these photos are a keepsake you’ll love looking back on to remember this season.

He is amazing at what he does and made our wedding day so easy and seamless.

My husband and I were so happy we hired Justin! He is amazing at what he does and made our wedding day so easy and seamless. He was great at getting all the shots we needed while allowing us to fully enjoy our wedding. He comes prepared for the event, and is so professional. He made us feel so comfortable during our special day. Lastly, Justin was supportive and accommodating when we had to change our wedding date last minute. I will always use Justin for my photography needs in the future. Highly recommend if you are looking for a fantastic photographer!

Justin truly went above and beyond for us every step of the way and anyone would be so lucky to work with him.

My husband and I recently got married on June 21st and booking Justin as our photographer was one of the best choices we could have made! He was amazing with communication from day one and even though he's booked and busy he made us feel like such a priority. We had a fabulous engagement session with him in NYC where he executed all of our ideas seamlessly while also bringing so much of his own inspo and experience to the table. He delivered sneak peak photos to us a mere hour later - he seriously works some magic. Our wedding day with him was nothing short of amazing! Not only does Justin bring pure talent and artistry to every couple he works with, but he also bring his larger than life personality and he left our wedding with 160 new friends (and a few other weddings booked!). Justin truly went above and beyond for us every step of the way and anyone would be so lucky to work with him.

Choosing Justin as our wedding photographer was truly the best decision we made!

From start to finish, he was incredibly helpful, communicative, and kind. He took the time to understand what mattered most to us, making sure we felt cared for every step of the way. We completely trusted him on our wedding day. He kept everything running seamlessly, brought such a calming presence, and made the entire experience so much fun. It honestly felt like spending the day with a friend. And the photos we got are STUNNING! We haven’t stopped looking at them, and our friends and family keep telling us how wowed they are by the work he did. Literally, we could not recommend Justin enough. He is absolutely amazing and a joy to work with.
