Do you shoot all kinds of weddings? I used to, but at this time I am focusing on small intimate weddings (100 guests and under) and elopements for 2023. I am not booking into 2024.
What is your approach to weddings? Style? I strive to photograph each wedding in an unobtrusive (laid-back) manner and document the day as it naturally unfolds – with a focus on emotion, family, friends, and all the details that make your wedding yours.
I’ve often heard from past clients and/or their families that they forgot I was even there :). That’s a good thing – since I really try to blend into each wedding. However, when needed (i.e. during group portraits) – I’m efficient at organizing and getting these taken in a timely manner, so you can get back to your party!
I’m drawn to color and beautiful light. I keep all post-processing very clean, crisp, and timeless. My hope is that you will look at your photographs 5, 10, 20 years from now and still be in love with them. I encourage you to visit my About page to learn more.
Do you shoot family sessions? Newborn sessions? What is your approach? I love working with families! All my family sessions are photographed in a lifestyle-fashion. This means that instead of inside a studio the sessions take place in a relaxed environment (a park, beach or the comfort of your own home). Pretty much anywhere I can capture lots of candids and natural moments between your loved ones. Please contact me for portrait pricing and more info.
Do you travel for weddings? Yes yes yes! I work out of my home office and primarily shoot around New England. However, I travel most anywhere. I especially love Maine and Martha’s Vineyard weddings.
What gear do you shoot with? All professional Nikon gear plus backup equipment.
Do you offer products such as albums? Yes, I offer beautiful custom designed flush-mount albums. More details here. I also offer canvases and fine art prints.
Do you have business insurance? Yes, of course. Lauren Methia Photography is a licensed business and is fully insured.
What is included with your packages? All of my collections include: The high-res {edited} digital files, an online gallery to share with family and friends, a highlights gallery, and a print release.
Do you work with a second photographer? No. Since I’m only shooting small weddings, I work solo!
Do we have to meet in order to secure the date? Though an in-person meeting is always nice; it’s not required. I work with many couples that don’t live nearby and therefore we can’t meet right away. We will definitely set up a call or FaceTime to discuss your wedding and needs further – and to make sure we are a good fit. The agreement is all exchanged by email.
What is the process after our wedding – When do we get our images? Will you blog our wedding? Your final edited images will be uploaded to the online gallery within 6-8 weeks. All albums are designed in the off-season. I do not blog every wedding due to the time I spend on editing and other business related things. But not to worry, included with all my packages is a highlights gallery which is a fun sneak peek of your day – and can be shared with your loved ones.
