Frequently asked questions

What does your wedding package include?

My packages include photographic coverage of your wedding from getting ready to the party (depending on the number of hours booked), a detailed initial consultation, location and light scouting, an unlimited number of photos, professional editing, a high-quality online gallery and – depending on the package – drone shots and short highlight films.

How far in advance should we contact you?

Ideally 6–12 months in advance. For elopements or destination weddings, however, short-notice bookings are also possible.

Do you photograph more than one wedding per day?

No. I only ever cover one wedding a day, so that you get all my energy and creativity.

Do you take bookings outside your area?

Yes! I specialise in destination weddings & elopements – whether in Switzerland, Italy (the Dolomites, Lake Garda, Verona), Austria or anywhere in the world.

What is the travel surcharge?

Within Switzerland: based on actual costs (flat rate per kilometre). Europe & worldwide: travel costs (flights/hotel) at cost price. For longer trips, I put together a fair flat-rate offer.

Do you use special or innovative techniques?

Yes. I work with a mix of cinematic storytelling, drone photography, Vogue-inspired portraits, real moments and filmic colour grading. My visual style combines Swiss precision with Latin American warmth.

What equipment do you use?

I shoot with professional Nikon full-frame cameras, fast lenses, several backup bodies, professional audio microphones for video sequences and a DJI drone for epic perspectives.

Do you have a way to share the photos online?

Yes. You receive a password-protected online gallery, ideal for sharing with friends & family. Full-resolution downloads are available at no extra cost.

How long does it take to deliver the finished product?

Preview within 48 hours. Complete gallery within 2–4 weeks (wedding) or 2–3 weeks (elopement/after-wedding).

Do you deliver all original photos?

No. I only deliver the perfectly edited, high-quality final images. As a matter of principle, I don’t hand over unedited RAW files – editing is an important part of my style.

Do you work alone or with a team of professionals?

I usually work alone, but can bring in a second photographer / videographer if needed.

Do you have staff to step in if needed?

Yes. I have a reliable network of professional photographers who could step in in an absolute emergency.

Do you keep all publication rights to the wedding photos?

Yes, the image rights remain with me. However, you receive usage rights for private purposes. If you don’t want the photos to be published, you can let me know at any time – I respect your privacy.

Do you charge by the hour or a flat rate per event?

I mainly work with packages / flat rates. Individual hourly packages are also possible, especially for elopements or small celebrations.

Would you be willing to work extra hours if needed?

Yes. I’m happy to stay longer if the mood is good or if important moments happen later on.

How do you charge for extra hours?

Each additional hour is charged transparently at the current hourly rate (clearly stated in the contract).

How do you work?

Relaxed, authentic, warm and professional. I mix documentary reportage with a modern editorial look. I only direct you when necessary – otherwise I tell your story as naturally as possible.

Which regions do you cover?

I can be booked worldwide, with a focus on: • Switzerland (Zurich, Winterthur, Eastern Switzerland, Bernese Oberland, Zermatt, Graubünden) • Italy (the Dolomites, Lago di Garda, Verona, Tuscany) • Austria & South Tyrol • All of Europe & international destination weddings

How does payment work?

By bank transfer. A deposit is due on booking, with the balance payable after the wedding.
