Here’s the deal. Send us a message with your date, venue if you have one, and whatever vibe you’re going for. We respond quick because waiting around for vendor emails is genuinely painful.
Initial Consultation and Discovery
Your journey with What A Story begins with a personalized consultation. We believe that understanding your vision, preferences, and expectations is essential to delivering results that exceed your imagination.
During this consultation, we will discuss the details of your wedding day, including the venue, timeline, and any specific moments you wish to capture. We will also take the time to learn about your love story, your personalities, and the overall aesthetic you envision for your wedding photographs and film. This conversation allows us to tailor our approach to reflect your unique style, whether you prefer timeless elegance, candid documentary coverage, or cinematic grandeur.
We encourage you to share inspiration images, color palettes, and any references that resonate with you. The more we understand your vision, the better equipped we are to bring it to life.
Customized Proposal and Package Selection
Following our consultation, we will provide you with a customized proposal that aligns with your requirements and budget. Our packages are designed to offer flexibility, ensuring that you receive the services that matter most to you.
Each package includes a detailed breakdown of coverage hours, the number of photographers and videographers assigned to your wedding, and the deliverables you will receive. We will explain every aspect of the package clearly, so there are no surprises along the way.
Once you have selected your package, we will send you a formal contract outlining all terms and conditions. A retainer fee is required to secure your wedding date on our calendar. This ensures that our team is exclusively reserved for your celebration.
Wedding Services
Pre-Wedding Planning and Coordination
As your wedding day approaches, we will remain in close communication with you to finalize all details. Approximately four to six weeks before your wedding, we will schedule a planning session to review the complete timeline, shot list, and logistics.
We will coordinate with your wedding planner, venue manager, and other vendors to ensure seamless collaboration on the day of your celebration. Our team will visit the venue in advance whenever possible to scout locations for portraits, identify optimal lighting conditions, and plan for any challenges that may arise.
If you have scheduled pre-wedding events such as engagement sessions, mehendi ceremonies, sangeet functions, or rehearsal dinners, we will discuss coverage for these occasions as well. These events provide wonderful opportunities to capture the joy and anticipation leading up to your wedding day.
The Wedding Day Experience
On your wedding day, our team will arrive prepared, professional, and ready to document every meaningful moment. We understand that this is one of the most important days of your life, and we approach our work with the utmost respect and sensitivity.
You can expect our photographers and videographers to be unobtrusive yet attentive. We specialize in capturing candid emotions and authentic interactions while also guiding you through formal portraits with ease and efficiency.
We come equipped with professional-grade cameras, lenses, lighting, and audio equipment to ensure the highest quality results in any environment. Our team also carries backup gear to address any technical contingencies.
Throughout the day, we will work closely with your wedding coordinator to stay aligned with the schedule. We will capture the preparations, ceremony, family portraits, couple portraits, reception, and all the heartfelt moments in between.
Post-Production and Editing
After your wedding, our team begins the meticulous process of curating and editing your photographs and film. We approach post-production with the same level of care and artistry that we bring to the wedding day itself.
For photography, we carefully select the best images from the thousands captured during your celebration. Each photograph undergoes professional color correction, exposure adjustment, and retouching to ensure a polished and cohesive final gallery. Our editing style emphasizes natural beauty, true-to-life colors, and timeless elegance.
For videography, we craft a cinematic wedding film that tells the story of your day with emotion and artistry. This includes audio synchronization, color grading, music selection, and seamless editing to create a narrative that captures the essence of your celebration. Depending on your package, you may also receive a highlight reel, full ceremony edit, and complete reception coverage.
