FAQ:


How do I book your services?
Just email at info@theglarephotography.com or call (619)866-8101 to check for availability! Once you are ready to move forward, we email you a contract online in which you can complete your payment and officially secure your wedding day!

Do I get all of my photos after?
You will receive the amount of images stated to be included in the package you select, however substandard shots such as blinking eyes, blurry or lighting test shots, or duplicates will be discarded. The goal is to give you as much variety as possible but you don't need to be sorting through blinking eye shots! You will then receive an email to download your final images along with your own personal printing rights. No watermark on your photos!

Can I do my own printing?
Yes, when you purchase a session, you will get all of your digital files in print quality resolution along with your own personal printing rights.

Can I bring a second outfit?
Yes, you can change to another formal/casual outfit of your choice. Solid/pastel colors are recommended over wardrobe with patterns (Stripes, dots, squares, flowers etc..)

Can I bring props?
Yes, you can bring your own props such as signs, balloons, champagne, or flowers just to name a few.

Our ceremony will be indoors. Is that okay?
Yes, although an outdoor ceremony is always preferred on a nice day, additional flash lighting will be provided for indoor ceremonies.

How much time do you spend for photos?
It depends on the package you select. Assuming you do the one hour package, typically the total photo coverage is 1 hour from start to finish. For example, about 15-20 minutes for the ceremony coverage, and the remainder 30-45 minutes for family/bride/groom photos.

What do I bring?

• If you hire a hair and make up stylist, you must be ready by the start of your photo appointment.

• Ironed/Pressed - It is ideal if you can bring your clothing already ironed, steamed or pressed, and in a garment bag to try to keep them wrinkle free. It is understood that this is not always possible, and that things can and will wrinkle with travel.

• Shoes/Socks/Accessories – Don’t forget to bring coordinating shoes and accessories for the clothing you bring. Things like belts, different colored socks (especially black for men’s dress pants), or white undershirt for light color dress shirts.


What are the marriage license requirements?
Once you visit the courthouse or call, they will give you all the info you need. In the mean time you can also find some helpful info in this link: www.sdarcc.gov
