FAQ
This section is for FAQ’s that I receive for both wedding AND portrait clients, so scroll down to see all of the information!
PORTRAIT
What should I wear for my portrait session?
I recommend solid colors, no prints. Tops that expose all of the arms tend not to photograph well, so try to go with no less than sleeveless if you must. Seniors can bring along anything that helps express who they are (guitars, hobby-stuff, etc).
I don’t know where we should go for our shoot?
I have a lot of great places all over Kansas City, so don’t worry about that part! We can also work together on a place that fits your family and your style.
What happens if it rains, or the weather is really crummy on our session day?
Have no worries about this. Most often I try to reschedule the session to a better day, so you have the best images possible. This happens all the time, because we DO live in Kansas! We will discuss the option that works best for your family/session.
Are you film or digital?
I am 100% digital, and use all Canon professional equipment. I also carry a back-up for each piece of equipment that I use. I feel that digital expands the creativity in a way that I could never do when I shot film.
WEDDING
Should we see one another before the wedding?
If after your wedding there will be no daylight, then YES. There are so many reasons that seeing one another is a great idea, that I created a complete page about it. Click Here
Should I provide you a list of the pictures I want?
I will take all of the standard combinations (parents, wedding party, etc) so unless there is something very unique about your family, a list is not necessary. These also tend to halt the creative process during your images.
The First Moment
Why is seeing one another before you walk down the aisle a great idea for your wedding day?
I have been shooting weddings for 11 years, and I can promise you that seeing one another provides better pictures and less stress on the wedding day! Below are some of the major reasons why I feel this is so important. I saw my groom prior to the ceremony as well, so I practiced what I preach!
- As the bride, once you see your groom you relax and can really focus on the ceremony, not what needs to happen when it concludes.
- By taking all of the photographs before the ceremony the couple, family and guests all get to the reception at the same time. Trust me when I say that after your ceremony the last thing you want to do is round up guests for pictures, you want to enjoy your family and friends as soon as you can.
- There will be natural light to create your images together unlike when the ceremony is late and the sun has already set after the wedding. Most couples fall in love with my images because of the use of natural/available lighting to create a feeling/mood — and I want you to have the best images I can provide.
- The groom can be a lot more natural in front of just you, and not the hundreds of guests watching his face to see if he will shed a tear. It is a lot of pressure up there! I can also capture his face better than from the back of the church aisle.
- There is 99% less stress on everyone involved in the wedding day.
How do I keep this moment so special?
First, I require that it is just the two of you in the room for the ‘First Moment’. Once you are ready to go, I place the groom in a beautiful spot/location where his back is turned. When you are ready, you tell him to turn around and see you for the first time. It is a magical moment that you have been waiting for — I photograph these moments and then step away to give you two some time to take it all in. Then we can begin your images!
Testimonials
“Rebecca is an amazing person to work with. She is very laid back, makes your special day as stress free as possible. She does wonderful work and you barely notice that she is there. She is easy to work with. She also makes sure that everyone has a great time taking pictures! Would recommend her to everyone we know!”
Amanda & Ricky
“Rebecca was so easy to work with the day of the wedding. She had fun with us while taking pictures, which proves to be a photographer who loves their job! Her personality is what sold us when meeting her before the wedding, and she wasn’t just putting on a show…that’s just the way Rebecca is! =) At the wedding, my bridesmaids were asking “where did you find her??” because you just don’t come across awesome photographers like Rebecca!”
Leah & Grant
“We would 100%, hands down recommend Rebecca. In fact, we have several times! Her work speaks for itself and everyone can see what a fantastic photographer she is. What you cannot see is how great she is to work with as well! She captured our wedding day brilliantly, all while making the guys actually ENOJY taking pictures! We have already used her for other photo shoots as well, and are happy to count her as a new friend!”
Lauren & Brian
“I am a professional photographer myself, and these were BY FAR, the most amazing photographs I have ever seen, AND the price was extremely reasonable. HIGHLY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! .”
Whitney & Ryan
“Rebecca was amazing and many members of my wedding party have decided to use her for future events that they have. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who is seeking a professional, fun, innovative photographer who will take all of the photos that you’ve asked, plus more! The most difficult part of working with her was deciding which of the wonderful photos to purchase. There were too many to choose from.”
