FAQ
When should we book our photographer? Typically couples book my services 10-16 months out. I only cover one full wedding per day, and typically only one per weekend to ensure my couples get me at 100%. I hate to have to tell clients I am booked for their date so sooner is alway better than later.
How would you describe your style? I am a documentary photographer at heart and the majority of my coverage is in that style. I'm low key and prefer to capture the moments, laughter, and joy of the day in an unobtrusive way. That being said I do love capturing beautiful details and creating relaxed portraits during those times of the day. My favorite part is being able to look at an entire wedding gallery and see the story of the day, the once in a lifetime moments captured, and being able to feel the day through the images.
What do we get after the wedding? Every wedding comes with a beautiful online gallery with all your final edited images to share with family & friends. The gallery is password protected and you will get a direct link to use/share. Collections will include a USB drive and your products in an awesome display box.
How many images will we get? Every wedding is different and I never set out to try to deliver a certain number of images. A typical 8 hour wedding ends up with 700-900 final edited images.
We are not very comfortable in front of the camera? Most people in general believe this to be true, luckily I don’t . I believe every person can take a beautiful photo. All it takes is good light, a little direction, and a little laughter. My style for portraits is to find beautiful light and instead of posing, let clients naturally interact with each other and then offer a little direction, a little laughing, and a little movement. What you get is beautiful, relaxed, portraits every time.
We love your work, you sound perfect, how do we book? To book any date I require a signed contract and a $1000 deposit. Due to the nature of this profession I can not hold any dates until those two things are received. I am only an email away and respond to messages with in 24-48 hours. If you do not hear from me I would try again or email me directly at jasonhupephotography@gmail.com.
Do you have back-ups in case something dies or is faulty? Sure do, my back-up have back-ups. I shoot all weddings with two cameras on me at all times but have two more stashed away in case of something.
How much time will we need for portraits, when should we have you start? All weddings are unique and different and I work with each couple to offer suggestions on their wedding day timeline to ensure we have the time to get the very best photos. A wedding day goes by in a blink of an eye and I want my clients to get amazing photos, but to also be able to enjoy their day and not spend hours upon hours for posed photographs.
How many weddings have you photographed? I have been a wedding photographer for 12+ years now, shooting over 200+ weddings, hard for me to believe it has been that long. Before that I worked as a photojournalist and before that I attended RIT in Rochester NY and have a BFA in photography, and before that I was a darkroom rat in high school. Photography has been in integral part of my life for the past 20 years.
What is your favorite part of being a wedding photographer? I love meeting my clients, being part of telling their story, and creating work that I know will become part of a legacy. Wedding photography is so much more to me than pretty details and portraits. The images of friends, family, laughter, and joy will be viewed by generations I smile knowing my work will be part of something much larger than just that one day.
