Wedding photography in Berlin
Yes, I am looking for a photographer, but I don't know how that works.
You are planning the civil ceremony of you and your loved ones and are looking for a photographer for the day of the civil wedding in Berlin? If you do not want to worry too much about the organization, just tell me the day and time of your event and I will be there between half an hour and 45 minutes before. While you are waiting for your family and friends to arrive, I will take some photos of you, the couple, and once the guests arrive, I will take photos of the two families meeting or simply of your attendees on this special day.
I take group photos, couple photos, photos during the signing of the papers, the handing over of the ring and the kiss. In summary, I will capture all the important moments.
Civil weddings
Why are there different prices and what is included in each package?
The price difference depends on the number of photos you want. Some people want just a few representative photos of the day. Others want all or almost all photos. But be careful, not all the photos I take are good, and I have to sort out and delete a lot of photos first. In two to three hours, I could easily take 1000 photos, but of those, only about 100-200 are really valuable. It takes me 2-6 hours, depending on the amount of photos, to select them and make sure they are OK to show to the you. To edit, store and transfer 200-300 photos takes a lot more time, resources and space than editing 15 or 20 photos.
The selection of photos can be made from home.
After a previous selection, I upload the photos to an online gallery where you can choose them at your leisure via a private link. Then I carefully edit them so that each photo becomes a lifelong memory.

Photo editing
Once you have made your selection, I process the photos, starting from a RAW file where I have to align, crop, enhance the color, contrast, etc. of each photo. Depending on the number of photos, this can take from 3 hours to 10 hours or more.
Delivery of the photos
The photos will be delivered as soon as 100% of the total amount is paid. I will send you a private link where you can download the jpg files.
You will receive 2 file types from me for each photo. A light jpg file, ideal for social media and a high quality jpg file for prints, in case you want to create an album or print some favorite photos.
I deliver only edited photos in jpg format. I do not supply unedited photos, nor original RAW files.
